At some point in this series, I will become tech savvy, and join my intro clip and the guest clip together. Today is not that day.

Oxfam USA World Food Day is October 16th (this Tuesday!). Here's Lisa and her kids to tell you about ways your family can learn about food and serve as a family.
Go ahead and tell me how cute the little signs they made are. Go on, tell me. Please turn up the volume for this video.

Eventually, we're going to have to see those out-takes for sure :) I love that you're doing this, and I love Oxfam. Such a cute video with the kids helping out, too. Thanks for the resources Amy and Lisa! Going to look around now!
Amy and Lisa - this is absolutely phenomenal! Thank you both for such amazing videos and I am so glad you met each other through the team.
Lori,
It was you who gave me the push/kicked me in the pants to put out a vlog. So thank you! Nothing can beat your creative stuff you guys have going on:

Jennfier,
Thanks for bringing us all together and for your mad organizational skills!
Lisa,
Your family is so sweet, and I appreciate your willingness to put yourself out there. Can't wait to collaborate more...one of the things I love about blogging.
Love your video's and suggestions! Lisa is so cute and amazing how she shares World Food Day with her kids. Too cute!!!
What an awesome idea!! You are so creative! Thinking about where our food comes from and knowing where it should come from is just so overwhelming to me. I feel like I just have so little input into any of it. I just try to make the best choices I can for my family and strive to help others in need. I am most passionate about the work that Heifer International does. I'd love to work for them someday!!
Thanks Amy and Lisa for sharing! Great suggestions on little things we can do to make a big difference.
awesome!!! cute kids AND signs :-) i can already tell i'm gonna love what you're doing with these videos. starting my lists so i don't forget any of the great ideas!
steph
you and lisa and all your upcoming guests rock, and not just for the service ideas.... okay, this is awesome. i will never ever ever have the courage to vlog.
Sara,
I agree thinking about our food is overwhelming. I'm not sure why. I guess because I know there are so many things wrong with our food system. I think World Food Day is a good time to take a small peek. Plus, I always like when organizations make things kid-friendly. It's easier on us. Thanks for reading, girl!
Jamie and Steph,
Thanks for reading, ladies. Steph, forget the list...you are a pinner, baby. That's how I always keep track of the good stuff.
Kendal,
Vlogs sort of stink. You think, ohhhh, tell me I don't look like that, sound like that, fidget like that, but I'm trying to push myself a bit. Blah!
You know what though? The friend who urged me to do this is right. People connect with you and probably feel as if they know you more...or they will quickly click away because you annoy them. Ha!
Cutest. Vlog. Ever. (And I'm not just talking bout the sweet little kids!!) :-)
Lisa- great stuff and i loved your kids and their signs. I am going to check out Hungry Planet- thanks for the resource.
And Amy- cute shirt in your vlog. Can I borrow it tomorrow? thanks.
Great resources in this post...I've been thinking about doing something similar in January and these tools are a big help.
Also thinking about submitting a 60-sec segment ;) but I need to get through this crazy month of writing...how far out are you planning these for?
Those kids are naturals! Great job and thank you for sharing!
