Although the week has started and I am already well into my crazy schedule, my mind is stuck on my weekend. In my mind I am still bike riding along the strand or sipping mimosas with a good friend after finishing our 10K.
Only a few more days before we get to enjoy another little life break.
For some extra fun-timez, here are a few great things the internet has introduced to me today:
- I just can’t quit watching the NPR tiny desk concerts, here is a great one of Swell Season.
- While I was considering just making some myself, these coasters may have changed my mind.
- Last chance to vote for Homies on Apartment Therapy – everyone should vote! (If you are dying to know who I voted for, here is a hint: rhymes with Ranhattan Fest)
- I think I could literally listen to Amy Winehouse singing Valerie for the rest of the week, straight.
- Booked our flights and our rental care for our spring break, Europe trip. Countries will include Belgium, Germany, and France. Send any must-see’s my way. (So far I have taken about 20 pages of notes from Oh Happy Day’s Paris posts)
- My type-friends will appreciate this: Kern Ring Set. I also appreciate and want to own them.
- Two favorite recent (crazy stylish and beautiful) blogs I have found: Sweet Thing and JASPR.
- My web design class meets for the second time tonight and I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorite classes of all time. Big plans, huge goals, and exciting future – here I come.
- This Design Sponge, Bri Emery of Design Love Fest and Blogshop feature is so inspiring and motivating. Repeat – big plans, huge goals, and exciting future – here I come.
- This vegan paleo recipe posted by Jeremy and Kathleen has me wanting to go vegan paleo.
What are your weekend plans? What are your huge goals?

Two things:
1.) I love Manhattan Nest too! Daniel is hilarious and I love his style. I found his blog through my friend, who knows his brother from college. Small world.
2.) So jealous you are going to Europe for spring break! I would highly recommend visiting Antwerpen in Belgium… it is BEAUTIFUL, and we stayed in this awesome hostel that had over 400 beers on tap. It was a lovely city, and I can’t wait to go back there someday.
I’m not sure if you are a Rick Steves fan, but we had great experiences based on his recommendations for our Europe trip in July 2011. 🙂
Christy – Manhattan Nest is one of my favorites, I have been reading Daniel’s blog for years now and it just seems to get better and better, definitely someone I look up to greatly. (If you didn’t already, Homies ends tonight – go vote!)
Thank you so much for the Belgium recommendation, that is one leg of the trip that we really know nothing about and now I will definitely see about adding Antwerpen to the list (and Alex will LOVE the beers.) My dad actually sent me all of Rick Steve’s videos on a hard drive so I need to make a weekend of watching all his recommendations for sure.
I am so glad you commented – now I even more excited to keep planning my trip, you made my day!
