28 Mirrors That Will Make You Stop and Stare

These colorful options are anything but bland- by Domino Magazine

In everyday life, we treat mirrors as a tool to help us get a look at ourselves, not as something to look at. They’re handy in the morning when you need to swipe on some lipstick or want to take one last peek at your outfit before rushing out the door, but you rarely stop to think about this utilitarian accessory in its own right.

It’s especially true of more modern and minimalist mirrors that aren’t weighed down by bulky, ornate frames. But what if you treated your mirror as something that’s also nice to gaze at in and of itself? What if it’s just the dose of color your routine needs? We found 28 bright options to get you started.

For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

Wisconsin Summer Camp during Winter Season

Angus Burger (sooo many toppings; the best burger I've ever tasted!!!!)

"Forever Trevor Blue Drink-O-Rama" (may look like Antifreeze, but surprisingly delicious!)

Ice cream Palooza ('cause they're ... not afraid of Winter...)

Camille, Jared, and Jill spent Saturday through Sunday at the Christian Youth Camp in Lake Geneva, WI for a Staff Retreat. The temperature was frigid during the two days, but the Cafeteria where we met-up with them and had our Lunch was warm and inviting.  I felt even better/warmer when, (a) the meal was FREE because of Jared's volunteer hours; and (b)  the two older ones were offered paid positions for the upcoming Yr 2010 Summer-camp Season  as Assistant Cook (Camille), and Head Dishwasher (Jared).  Jill applied as a volunteer, so we shall see what opportunities the Lord will open for her at the Camp.  Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow!!!
