Have a Relaxing Weekend!

Well, since I'm recovering from being sick all week, I don't have any big plans for the weekend.  Saturday I actually have no plans currently, but I can't imagine just sitting around my apartment all day since that's all I've been doing this week.  So I'll have to come up with something - maybe I'll go do some thrifting for the final touches of my Halloween costume. On Sunday I'm going to have brunch at a friend's apartment followed by a "dumpling party" that my friend R and I plan to throw for ourselves that evening.  We're really just looking for an opportunity to use his new stand mixer and food processor....

Given that I spent two days at home sick this week I had plenty of time to waste on the internets.  I found some interesting things, and so you are the lucky ducks that get to benefit from my hours of inactivity: 

•  I found this absolutely delicious and easy recipe for Chocolate Pots that I plan to make using quail eggs.
• A great article about why you shouldn't save outfits for "special occasions" - get your money's worth out of your closet!!!
• The inspiration for my hairdo today.  I've gotten so many compliments I may have to wear it like this more often!
• In honor of the upcoming Movember, an awesome and FREE embroidery pattern...
• Another food blog that I'm obsessed with.
• I've used these recipes for flavored toasted pumpkin seeds before and I just rediscovered them. My favorite is the Sweet & Spicy.
• Great style inspiration: a graphic tee, pencil skirt, and statement necklace.
• And just one more food post: grilled cheese, 3 ways.  I can't even pick a favorite as they all sound delicious.  Yum.
