Link Love


If you are looking to get inspired for some fun activities with the kiddos, we love Made By Joel. Clare will dig this Match Game Printable.

Sweet Preservation, The Washington State Fruit Commission's new website devoted to canning and preserving Summer, is inspiring! Get some behind-the-scenes details from Blair of Wise Craft, who created many of the concepts and styled the photos. And don't miss the Preservation Party Playlist which includes "Pump Up the Jam" by Technotronic. I totally want to have a Preservation Party.

Need I say more about this adorable DIY Turtle Pincushion? Nope.

And sponsor  Fabricworm presents their first tutorial and free pattern! A Bandeau Romper and Beach Coverall made from the new line of Patty Young Knits.

Also...
So Home Grown has an A-dorable DIY for an Enchanted Forest Invitation. This is such a cute Fall Birthday theme!

And you've probably seen this magical creativity floating around the web. Is it wrong that this makes me feel like a failure as a memory keeper of my child's early years? I mean that as a compliment.

And if you are into things like people devoting their lives to saving precious orphaned elephants, you might want to grab your tissues and take a peek here. gulp.

And if you're into things like justifying eating chocolate while pregnant you might want to take a peek here. {she types while balancing a half-gallon of Rocky Road on her knee.}

And if you love France, Cooking, Eating, Ice Cream, or Laughter, you should be reading the blog of Author David Lebovitz.

Oh, and don't forget! Last chance to leave a comment which could win you those adorable Alphabet cups up there to the left. What link do you love this week?

should be

Thanks Fabricworm and Prudent Baby for the cute romper pattern! I'm gonna give it a try even though I won't be able to wear it as well as your model :)

I love that turtle pin cushion. We are all about turtles around here right now, or as my 2 year old calls them "dur-durs".

ok, thank you SO much for the blog about chocolate being good for a preggo mama! with my first pregnancy i had preeclampsia. with this one (i'm 38 weeks!) i've allowed myself to eat more chocolate because so far, i haven't gained as much weight as the first - and you guessed it - no preeclampsia symptoms so far! yay. it may have nothing at all to do with chocolate, but it makes my heart happy to hear that chocolate = good. i know you understand.
