Today’s post will be brief – I’m in Blacksburg for my sister’s wedding(!!!) and we have a lot to do.

Last week was Sam Rogers Week for Hokie fans. Andy Bitter of the Roanoke Times wrote this great piece about him prior to Saturday’s game against UVA.  Then, as if it were a movie, Sam had a fantastic day on Saturday that merited another story. It makes me happy when the Lord so clearly shows His kindness to His children.

Why We’re Obsessed with “This Is Us” – insightful Washington Post article by Russell Moore.

In case you were wondering, I ended up making the pie I wrote about in my last Friday Finds post — twice.  And it was delicious.

Pecan Praline Baked Brie – now I’m looking for an excuse to try this one.

Lastly, I just bought myself a Christmas present with the Christmas money I don’t have yet! Zulily had a special on these Rachael Ray hard-anodized pots and pans and I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to buy them at 75% off! Don’t need to wait for a wedding registry to have nice things.

Have a lovely weekend, everyone. I know I will.
