Link|Love: 4 Entertaining Podcasts

Ever since I discovered Serial, I've been hooked on podcasts.  Here are some that I really enjoy right now!

Elise Gets Crafty - I binge on the archives of Elise's podcast while I'm working because her guests' stories are so inspirational and motivating.

She Percolates - This one is new to me, and I'm really liking the content, which is all about successful creative ladies.

Playtime (BBC) - Okay, so this one is more for my son when he's hanging out in the studio, but he loves it and it engages him so well.

The Leviathan Chronicles - I'm digging this drama, and I'm not even into sci-fi.  It's like watching a movie, without using your eyes.

I use Podcast Addict on  my Android phone to play subscribe to and stream or download episodes.  It has a playlist feature which is nice, but I haven't been able to figure out how to go directly from the player to anyone's show notes, if that's even possible.

It's the last Friday of March, so I thought I'd round up a bunch of little linky things I like.

This Create Caffeinate Repeat tee is pretty cool.

The LEGO ninjas were fun to build and play with.

My phone screen might not be cracked (again!) if I had this pretty phone case on it.

I want to read A Fireproof Home for the Bride.

This chickpea and butternut squash curry is so so yummy.

FROZEN 2!!!

Coveting this wooden map puzzle.

This rocket ship activity was my son's favorite this month.

I want one of these handmade wooden arrow signs for my gallery wall.

Best of Spring and Easter Link Round-Up

Today is the first day of Spring and Easter is just around the corner.  Here's a list of great links to help melt away the last traces of winter.

Chick & Egg Reversible Toy Pattern | Abby Glassenberg, While She Naps

I bought the Chick & Egg Reversible Toy Pattern from While She Naps the other day and plan to make a few for little Easter gifts for my son and his friends.  Those sweet little chicken feet slay me!  Abby's Caterpillar & Butterfly Reversible Toy Pattern is perfect for spring as well.

Pretty Floral Note Cards | Lindsay Freitas Hopkins, Pen and Paint on Etsy

This hand drawn floral card from Pen and Paint on Etsy will lift up a winter weary friend.  Lindsay's inspirational artwork is all over my home so I know from experience that these cards will put a smile on anyone's face.

ORIGINAL Tulip Wreath | ElegantWreath on Etsy

The ORIGINAL Tulip Wreath by ElegantWreath on Etsy is beautiful.  It's no wonder Shannon's wreaths have been featured in publications such as Better Homes & Gardens and Southern Living.  Tulips are among my favorite flowers and this wreath has moved to the top of my wish list.

Happy Easter Printable | Caravan Shoppe

The fine folks at Caravan Shoppe are so generous to offer many free printables in their shop.  I am the proud owner of quite a few of their digital delights.  Follow the link to download the large format free Happy Easter Printable at Caravan Shoppe, and also be sure to check out the Draw Together Easter Set

Easy Bunny Candy Pouch | Mer Mag

This DIY Bunny Candy Pouch will be so cute in the Easter basket filled with jelly beans.  Just look at that sweet hand-embroidered face!  Find the tutorial at Mer Mag.

Spring Sprout Table Runner | Kristan Kremer

I made this Spring Sprout table runner from a book project in 2013, but it never gets old to look at it.  In fact, it hangs in my studio year-round when it's not decorating the table for spring because I can't bear to put it away with the other seasonal items.  

What are your favorite springtime recipes?  I'm looking to shake up the dinner rotation as I transition from thick chili and chunky winter soup.  Please share the yum in the comments!
