Hey y'all, here's a list of things / looks focusing on the Catholic faith that I really like! I have listed prayer tools, veils, and concepts here that encapsulate the faith in my experience :)
I paint kindness rocks and am building a platform that will change how people view painted rocks, and how art can impact others. Rock painting is an art niche that really took off during covid when people were cooped up inside but longed for that human connection. Artists painted messages of inspiration & hope and left them “hidden in plain sight”. That niche has steadily grown over the years with no signs of slowing down. Rock painting is affordable, accessible and lets artists share their art with others (on the sly).

Through trial and error, these are the games we tend to keep coming back to when we have a large group of friends or family or gathering. These are the easiest to explain nd get up and running ASAP as not to lose the attention/interest of guests trying to over explain complicated rules. This allows the group to monitor how the rules are followed, instead of having to assign a referee who understands all the potential nuances. That way, everyone gets equal play time and way less stress. Not to mention, these could also be turned into a version of play where liquid courage is involved as either a bonus or a consequence for those aged 21+. When we attempt to learn a more difficult game (like Wingspan), we tend to always end up playing one of these to close out the night. Hope you enjoy the giggles these produce as much as we do!

Who did not grow up playing with LEGO? As a child, I was enthralled by the joy that these seemingly nondescript rectangular colored plastic bricks could bring. The creatures and worlds that existed only in my imagination could finally be given realistic form (even if they didn't move or breathe like their living counterparts).LEGO is not a game in the traditional sense of the word. It is a unifying force that needs neither language nor rules. It appeals to individuals across a wide variety of ages, demographics, and cultures. The building blocks of LEGO foster creativity, curiosity, and even teambuilding spirit, and result in some jaw-dropping works of art that can take hours, days, weeks, and even months to craft. Check out the LEGO Masters TV show – contestants can spend up to NINE hours constructing their masterpieces! To say nothing of the real-life structures that may have come about as a result of prototyping using LEGO, or the careers that were launched in architecture, urban planning, medicine, science, technology or mathematics as a result of early (and long-lasting) encounters with LEGO!Note: This list may contain affiliate links, which means that I may receive a commission (at no charge to you) if you make a purchase using these links.

I'm a HUGE music fanatic. I live and breathe it - I manage independent artists, and listen to thousands of tracks every month. I average over 50,000 listens on Spotify year on year, and though I have a slight bias towards pop divas, my taste is diverse and authentic. I love a music festival, discovering new artists, taking bets on who will rise to the top, and really getting to know them through their work. Every month, I'll list 5 that I think are worth a listen and genuinely worth your time. I'll also suggest an entry-point into them so you can trust the experience.Hope you enjoy, let me know if there's any in particular that stand out to you!
