WEEKENDQUOTEfly

I love the Internet. This is some of the rad stuff I found last week…

whenever I share this (super easy!) soup on Instagram I get lots of requests for the recipe.

wooden letters at Target!

anyone else find themselves wrapped up in the Uber vs. Taxi drama? no? just me?

the Aether Cone must have a good marketing team because I keep seeing them everywhere. (amazing looking but pricey.)

I love a good photo series.

"The best marketing strategy is to create the best product possible." – and other smart takeaways from Maker's Summit.

these are gorgeous. (next project?)

and these are beautiful.

fun DIY to use up scrap yarn.

how do you find meaningful work?

friendly reminder that a GET TO WORK print is shipping free with all physical purchases through 3/31.

    That photo series is dreamy! And when I was young, I loved making God’s Eyes. I’m thinking of reviving them with the girls I nanny for this summer. So fun!

    hey elise… if you love the sound of a violin, you must take time to listen to this. what bryson anders does with his violin will send chills up and down your arm like it did mine. this video might be worth adding to one of your weekend links. happy weekend with your beautiful family.

    You’re not alone! I didn’t know about the California Taxis v. Uber lawsuit, but I know it’s a discussion here in Boston too. And it fits so well with that quote from Maker’s Summit!! What drives me nuts is that taxi companies are just complaining and trying to stop Uber/Lyft. I wish they would look at why people are making that decision and then innovate their own businesses to compete.
    When I take a cab, I’m often hassled for not paying in cash, and I’ve been lied to in an effort to get me to pay more. We asked one Uber driver if he liked his job, and he said he used to drive a cab, but with Uber he’s working less for more money and was able to start pursuing his education. I know Uber and Lyft aren’t perfect, but taxis could learn a lesson that would benefit customers and maybe also drivers, if they’d focus on improving their own businesses instead of trying to stop someone else’s.
