The weekend is here! I want a nap. And to see Crazy Rich Asians. Have you seen it? What are you doing this weekend? Do you have any favorite fall foods right now? Please share in the comments! I’m in a bit of a recipe rut.
Some weekend reading…
This sweater coat needs me.
Made this soup last night, but with ground turkey. Really good.
This can do wonders for a tired face (mine, lately! Stayed up way too late finishing Ozark last night). New favorite.
I was so bummed to see a gamer on the cover of ESPN. Shame on you, ESPN.
Look how adorable these shoes are for a little one.
A modern day rendition of Frasier’s apartment. (Steve is a huge Frasier fan.)
I’m watching Ozark, so I of course googled cyanide in cherry pits. Who knew? Maybe you did. I didn’t though.
Today’s Google doodle. Love, love, love it.
Chrissy Teigen’s new Target line. I love the spatulas.
Mary Poppins! I just love that Dick Van Dyke is in it.
What’s your favorite thing you’ve watched on Netflix recently? I’m hoping to watch Maniac soon. Looks so interesting (plus, that cast!).
Cutest Halloween costumes for some little girls.
My favorite recent purchase on Amazon (it’s battery powered, and shows the time only when you clap, or tap it; I love it.).
Stay in the White Mountains in this sweet treehouse. And then hike Artist’s Bluff!
I love these pajamas.
I’m a huge Stevie Wonder fan (Superstitious is one of the best ever; and just try to remain in a bad mood after his songs… Sir Duke! Signed Sealed Delivered! God, he’s good.), so I loved this.
Have a good weekend!
Ahh, I love Google doodles! Super cute 🙂
Hope you have a lovely weekend!

Crazy Rich Asians is wonderful – also if you’re just looking for a light lovely romcom without leaving the house, to echo the rest of the interwebs, to all the boys i’ve ever loved on Netflix is also delightful.
Why are you bummed to see a gamer on the cover of ESPN? I think that Ninja, specifically, is a problematic choice, but gamers in general? Not so much. I think to narrowly define “sport” is problematic – hunting, chess, fishing, dog racing, target shooting, equestrian dressage, etc. are all considered “sports.”
Also, considering the popularity and lucrative nature of sport-themed video games, this choice isn’t that surprising. ESPN originally stood for “Entertainment and Sporting Network” and the organization has a lively (and again likely lucrative) fantasy-sport gaming community and network so online and video games are not outside of their wheelhouse.
I see your point, Rachel. And given what ESPN actually stands for, I suppose he’s not an unlikely choice. But professional gaming in general is not something I want my children looking up to (no doubt there are other cover stories on ESPN that I also would hope they don’t look up to!). Is there an example of a gamer I might want my children to emulate? As for Ninja, I read the article (the one in ESPN) and he streams from his basement for 12 hours a day, a “fridge full of Red Bull” to help fuel him, and goes offline one day a week. I think we can all agree, that’s troubling. Add to that, it’s Fortnite. The little I know of Fortnite, I’m not a fan. So, that’s why I’m bummed to see a gamer on the cover of ESPN.
Most, if not all fruit seeds have cyanide in them. I know, at least, peaches, apples, pears, and cherries do. Also, if you ever get organic apple juice, make sure you don’t keep it around long. It will become poisonous with cyanide.
This is my all-time favorite fall dish!
I may just have to make it this weekend 🙂

Loved Crazy rich asians…and I don’t got to many movies. Totally worth seeing and my husband liked it too.
So…I’m super pregnant and not cooking much of anything at the moment…but this soup is what I crave in the Fall. This and everything else on her blog 🙂

that looks sooo good.
Crazy Rich Asians!!! I hoped you liked it. Whoa, that clock is very cool.
That wedding in Crazy Rich Asians with the water aisle? I’m bound and determined to have that in the next life. ALSO: FRASIER. It’s legitimately my favorite TV show. Have you heard the rumors about a possible reboot? Exciting times, exciting times.
I haven’t actually seen it yet… didn’t make it happen this weekend! And what! No! Hadn’t heard that about Frasier… amazing!!!

Are you familiar with her? She has great recipes for dessert, too!
Superstitious! One of my favorites too. 🙂 I am waiting for Phish (my favorite band) to cover it… it would be the funkiest dance fest.
you would’ve loved my highschool… so many phish fans!!!
