. link love 6/7 .

June 7, 2015 by Amanda @ .running with spoons. 14 Comments

Happy Sunday, friendly faces!

Aaaand welcome to another Link Love, aka: a day where I share ALL the links I’ve been loving in the past week. Well, maybe not all of them because then there’d be 5 times as many links on this page and I’m pretty sure no one wants to sit there with 40 tabs open in their browser.

Actually, I always have a hard time deciding how many links I should include here, since I want there to be enough variety while still giving enough attention to each individual link. Ohhhh, decisions, decisions.

But you know the drill! Great links and a place to add your own at the bottom. Hope you’re having an awesome weekend!

    Sleepless night = cereal and cheese was a bad choice.
