Friday links

Today on my calendar it says: First Day of Spring. I want to believe this with all my heart but when I look out my window, it tells a different story.

This is how my driveway looked as I left it this morning.

See those two wooden blocks to the right? Those?
Those are the newel posts of my front steps.

Well, here's hoping that things start to melt soon. Although at this point I cannot imagine where all that snow is going to go. It's pretty safe to say that I am utterly beyond sick of the white stuff.

Here are some links:

I love following the Pioneer Woman's blog. She also has a show on the Food Network, but being that I don't have TV, I can't watch it. Or so I thought. A couple of days ago, I realized that foodnetwork.ca has her episodes listed to watch online! If this is your kind of thing, I highly recommend. 

Speaking of the Pioneer Woman, she had someone guest post on her blog this week. The blogger shared some interesting thoughts on homeschooling. I've long thought that having a strong conviction or passion to homeschool should not translate into making others feel it's the only way.

A challenge from Nancy Leigh DeMoss on writing, blogging, ministry, and getting into God's word.

One day recently I had such a craving for a chocolate peanut butter treat. I went to my trusty Google and came up with these and YUM. Go make now. You won't regret it.

Happy weekend everyone!
