Seasonal Saturday with Featured Blogs from Last Week

It's March!  Only a few more weeks until Spring's official arrival!  I am so anxious for spring this year after the cold winter that we've all been through.  I'm already posting more fresh and light recipes as a result.

I'm also starting a new feature to this weekly blog get-together.  Beginning with this post, 5 blogs will be featured from the previous week that I considered to be inspirational for not only freshness, but also for those that may have reflected the season.  There will obviously be a featured foodie blog, a wonderful decor blog, and a nutrition/lifestyle change blog/post.  Another fourth category will feature the gardening and nature blog posts.  The fifth and final featured blog will focus on anything miscellaneous (quilts, hand-made items, thoughts, etc.) that matches the theme of this get-together.  I hope you visit some of these blogs for their great inspiration!

It was difficult to decide on the featured foodie blog post, but I felt that since next week is Mardi Gras in the United States, I'd feature the traditional beignets that are famous from New Orleans.  Stop on over to Patti's Comfy Cuisine to discover her down to earth and very delicious approach to good home cooking.

Melissa's Heart and Home is a tremendous blog that my dear friend, Melissa, inspires so many readers on the various different ways to freshen up our homes.  I always come away amazed at how she puts it all together so beautifully!  I think that you will too.  Plus, she writes with such grace that you just can't help but love Melissa!

I have been de-cluttering my house now since the new year and loving every minute of my new-found organization.  I love all of the valuable tips and advice that so many bloggers post in this get-together.  Anna, over on her blog Ask Anna, provides numerous helpful information on ways to simplify our lives so that we can live in ways that focus on what really matters to us.  Last week's post zeroed in how to plan meals better, which by the way, helps us with our efforts to eat more healthy!

Now to go outside where I love and long to be these days!  The garden blog featured from last week is Pam's Sidewalk Shoes.  Pam blogs about many topics near and dear to my heart:  gardening, nature, cooking, reading, and sewing (not many of us left that sew and quilt!).  She also loves photography and her shots invite us into her  natural world. She inspired me to get outside and dig, to plant, and to soak in some sun whenever the weather allows me to.

And last but not least is Elizabeth from Positive Kismet with absolutely profound words of wisdom in each and every post.  Last week she posted about ten lessons that inspire us.  This is the kind of human being that I love to have around me!  So positive and inspirational!  I hope you stop by her lovely blog.

So with that little review of 5 wonderful blogs, I hope you link up a post that you'd like to share with others.  Fresh, Clean, and Pure Friday extends into Seasonal Saturday in order to provide enough time to join in.  Remember, please do NOT post anything related to giveaways, trying to sell stuff, coupons, and any other post that is not related to the theme of fresh and seasonal.  I really appreciate keeping this get-together focused with a variety of ways to do so (cooking, gardening, decor, lifestyle, photography, thoughts, etc.)  All unrelated posts will be gently removed.,
