Happy Weekend

(love love the work of Tim Walker, British fashion photographer)

Hello friends, did you have a good week? Mine was alright, I'm just happy it's ending in sunshine.  I'm looking forward to a weekend at home with my plants and a stack of library books because I'm 80 years old and I don't care who knows.

In the meantime, here are a few things I'm loving this week:

+ Yesterday I bought a mini gold resin lion head for my bedroom wall, 100% serious. It was the best decision I've made all week.

+ In the news: the George W. Bush library was dedicated in Dallas, TX yesterday and 5 present and former presidents were all in attendance (not something that happens often!). The Washington Post has a gallery of images of the presidents hanging out together. In my humble opinion, it says something good about our country when its former leaders can come together in such a peaceful and friendly manner, despite vast political differences. I also thought President Obama's remarks were gracious and kind.

+ This recipe for rosemary flatbread crackers from Gourmet magazine was in our newspaper this week. I can't wait to try it!

+ Have you seen this human chair prank? Both hilarious and terrifying and I may never trust chairs in coffee houses again. (via Hello Giggles)

+ Speaking of things that are funny/scary, Jillian shared this photo with me of a dog wearing a horse mask identical to the one I wore on Halloween.  Obviously I'm getting a dog right this minute so I can recreate this moment.

Have a good one my dears.
