what are you doing this weekend?


happy friday, friends! did you have a good week? i did -- i spent much of it working and working out, cooking and cleaning and getting things in order. so, yes: a good week. plus, the weather has been insanely beautiful here -- 75 degrees and sunny every day. my friend/coworker h. and i have a habit of taking 15-minute afternoon walks, and i swear the sunshine has been like an instant shot of happy. this time of year is exactly why i love florida.

and i'll have extra time to enjoy sarasota this weekend, because i have monday off for presidents' day. i'm going to a friend's baby shower tomorrow morning (i'm still not used to my friends having babies), and then a dinner party tomorrow night, to which i think i'm bringing this cake (i love your recipes, ina). i also want to write up all the recipes and stories i've been meaning to post on my sadly neglected baking blog and figure out a way to catalog them in this space (easier and more user-friendly), and of course spend time with friends and get in some exercise. i may or may not post on monday; if i don't, i'll definitely see you back here tuesday.

and please do tell me your plans for the weekend, too -- whatever you're doing, i hope you have a fantastic time doing it! xoxo

  7. I'm spending this weekend camping and canoeing with some friends in North Florida. Hopefully it'll give me the energy boost to get to work on stuff when I get home!
