When it starts to get chilly outside, my mind starts thinking about my crockpot and crocheting. I love to sit down and the end of a long day and have a yummy pot roast from my crockpot to eat for dinner. Crockpots are a great resource for busy families.

So in preparation of all that awesome fall weather right around the corner, here is a fun round up of crockpot recipes!

I can’t seem to get journaling off my brain. I love being able to look back and see what I was doing 1 year ago or 5 years ago. However, how many people actually journal every day?

Such as your summer vacation or gratitude journal or even turning a vintage book into a fun scrapbook journal. I am in love!
