Have a Sweet Weekend.

What are your plans for this weekend? Alex’s birthday is tomorrow, so we’ll have having cake and candles…but maybe not singing Happy Birthday:) Also, thank you so much for the amazing emails about the reader makeovers; everyone who wrote was so cute and funny. It’s going to be impossible to pick three people! Hope you have a good one, and here are a few fun posts from around the web…

A song for your weekend.

A Michigan tattoo!

Men in love walk more slowly.

Craving these fried bananas.

Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin, a coffeetable book.

Why we need sleep.

Paying it forward in the drive-thru.

Would you wear tangerine lipstick?

How popcorn took over movie theaters.

Cute new bags.

This cat made me laugh.

A half-birthday cake.

Skootcase.

For my son’s half birthday this year (4.5), I had it marked in my calendar and we baked a half of a cake. Just for fun, a “just because” celebration. Not because I think he did anything remarkable or deserved presents or wanted people to wish him a happy half-birthday. I took a cute pic and posted it on fb, and got plenty of posts about what a cute idea it is. BUT! I couldn’t believe. One mom with a teenage daughter posted something about how the only people who deserve additional birthday attention are those whose birthdays are Christmas week, and “everyone else should just be grateful for what they got.” And several people liked the comment! It was so unnecessary and hurtful. So be warned! Some people may take it the wrong way!

oh and may I ask what you got for Alex? My husband’s birthday is next month, and every single time he buys everything he needs the month before, so it always is a struggle for me to find ideas. I know it’s super personal, but some men really don’t need lots of things! (well… we all know what they need… ;)

What a cute photo! Also, thanks for the link to the fried bananas I am about to go and make them right now, banana anything is a winner for me, and I just so happen to have all the ingredients (and practically nothing else) in my new flat! If that’s not a sign I don’t know what is… Ailish Goes

I’ve been making those fried bananas and they are SO GOOD. When I originally saw the recipe, it reminded me that my grandmother used to make me fried bananas just like that and put them on toast for breakfast. :)
