Ohh, I am not ready for it to be Monday. Not ready at all. This weekend was pretty great, but as I looked over my photos last night, it seems only the ones from Sunday came out. A brief synopsis of what is not pictured: A visit to Phipps on Friday night where we bought a family membership ($75 for two people, for the year!), a much needed sushi dinner at Umi (so good!), a late night watching of Tangled (which made me want to cut my hair...even more), a lazy-ish Saturday, and a Midnight in Paris viewing (I loved it).
Yesterday was another lazy-ish day, with lots of cat time, breakfast at home, another (albeit fruitless) visit to Construction Junction, a stop at Espresso a Mano, and a visit to the art supply store (I'm feeling inspired!).
Inspired by Emma's cake, Chris and I baked a birthday cake from scratch (we used this cake recipe- substituting cake flour, and the frosting recipe on the back of the Ghirardelli baking powder can), and he made me the most amazing spaghetti and meatball dinner.
All in all, a very good, and very tasty weekend! How was yours?

I really like that last photo. Sounds like you had a really nice weekend! I did too. Yesterday I got to clean my apt, and spend the afternoon antiquing and coffee drinking with my close friends before we closed the night with The Maltese Falcon and a couple of Guinness at my place. :)

Umi is one of our favorite PGH restaurants. Went there the night we got engaged. Nice choice.

I love the photo of your cat, it's very cute! Just wanted to tell you that I've just finished traveling for the last nine months and your blog was one of the few websites that I checked whenever I had internet (traveling through rural Africa, I didn't have internet too often...). I love your style and your photography, it is very fun and helped me stay inspired fashion-wise when I was living out of my backpack and literally wearing the exact same thing for nine months (seriously, I had ONE pair of pants and ONE shirt, so fashion was not even on my priority list). I couldn't log in and leave comments while we were traveling (very limited internet), so I'm just telling you now. Thank you and I look forward to following your posts in the future!
that sounds like the perfect birthday weekend :) glad you had such a good few days!
A Daily Vignette: Wow, thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to read! Africa must have been incredible! The college I attended held an annual trip to Mali, and the photos that my friends came back with were always so breathtaking. Welcome home and thank you again for your support and kind words!
My sister and I both watched tangled together a few weeks ago, and were kind of embarrassed by how much we loved it. Only kinda.
Your kitty is so adorable! :) <3
Your kitty is adorable :) And these are a great set of pictures.
Not that the opinion of a random stranger who reads your blog should matter much, but please don't cut your hair! Your long hair is so amazingly gorgeous and luscious - I am super jealous of it :)
LOVE the cat pics. again, so glad you fixed your camera!
