Podcasts for the Catholic-mother-crafter!
Some of my favorite websites and resources on the Internet:
Saint of the Day: I listen to this podcast while I am walking for exercise. 4 to 6 laps around the quarter-mile track can get pretty boring, but this helps.
MP3 EWTN, Catholic Answers Live, and MP3 Debates : Another podcast site. Any and all Catholic and religious, morality and life topics covered.
CraftyPod : This link has both podcasts from craft topics and in the left sidebar column there is a list of other craft podcasts! Lots there, many knitting, but many others are intertwined with the author/speaker’s daily life with children.
LibriVox:Recorded books, poems and more all in the Public Domain. Find classics and obscure. It has an effective search. Download by chapter or by complete book.
Writer’s Almanac: Garrison Keillor’s brief daily show (shorter than 10 minutes) highlighting literary related events of each date on the calendar. Who, among writers, poets, etc, was born, died, published on this date in history. Always ends with a poem.
The Splendid Table: Billed as “The show for people who love to eat” Is it possible that covers most of us! The host interviews lots of people from restaurant owners, chefs, authors, food historians, and more. Very listen-able, enjoyable. And who can’t use another tip on making meals interesting!
I hope you find these useful to you. Please let me hear from you and pass the word that my blog is here. Do you have questions or want suggestions in my area of “expertise” :-). Just ask.
Most of the sites listed are more than just a podcast ink. Many have print and photo resources as well. Enjoy!
Always,
Ann
