quick links!

for the last few days i’ve been pretty overwhelmed with love. no worries, this post isn’t going to get all deep and stuff, but seriously, when i received my newest real simple i couldn’t help but fall hard. and because it’s almost my birthday, i’ve allowed myself to fall straight in love with a few etsy shops that i’d previously only admired at a safe distance from my purse. and oh, food. just the beauty of the raw ingredients has been getting to me lately! and inspiration and ideas!? i’ve been bookmarking more posts than i have in ages. it seems 2009 is really bringing out the best in everyone! and since i’m CLEARLY a bit overwhelmed, today i’m just going to share some lovely links!

first up, food+photography. hard to beat that combo in my world! béa’s recipes are perfect and her images are just stunning:

next let’s talk about seth godin’s blog- FULL of amazing advice and business articles! he really shares his brilliance here so if you’re at all interested in business, i recommend it. and speaking of love- this recent article was great!

and then there’s etsy. i could write a whole post about my love for this site but for today i’ll just link to a few favorites!

so now back to pretty pictures and good food! these sites are also full of beautiful ways to style food as well as table designs and foodie gift ideas!

you probably don’t know that i love fashion- mostly because of my signature grey sweatpants and tank tops- but really i do. the exotic taste and finds of these next two blogs keep me falling in love with style:

and last but most certainly not least two of my fave wedding inspiration blogs. this is another section that could take up a whole blog post!

anyway, friends, i hope you’ve found something here that makes you really happy! i’m always excited about new and beautiful blogs so if you have some favorites, it would be awesome if you’d leave a comment with the link! i’d LOVE to add a few more blogs to my reader! :)
