WEEKENDQUOTE

Signing off early this week! My mom is coming into town this afternoon (yay Mom!). Thanks for your comments, feedback, emails and GTWB orders. It’s all so appreciated.

Some favorites from around the web…

Week in the Life starts Monday! Super excited to join in this time around even though our week will be “abnormal” with Paul working the night shift.

and semi-related, here are some of my favorite photo tips from over the years.

Ellerie is in love with her elephant backpack.

it’s quite possible I’ve linked to this already but I so enjoy this motherhood around the world series.

DIY copper shelves (wow!)

my friends at Dear Handmade Life just released some new online workshops!

a really lovely and simple bedroom.

on the importance of to-do lists (and some great scheduling apps if that’s your thing!)

we watched The Imitation Game last weekend and now I’m code obsessed. Hoping to find this at the library.

“And if you are alive and in relationship, you do vulnerability. If you are alive and in relationship and in business, you do it hourly.” – Brene Brown in a Fast Company article from a few years back.

loving Kimmy Hogan’s beautiful and modern still life paintings.

peanut butter and jelly muffins.

this would be so fun in a baby’s room.

and because I’d jump at this deal, the fitbit flex is currently on sale for $79.

have a great weekend.

    Great quote – perfectly timed! I’ve added Bossy Pants to my list after repeatedly seeing snippets on the blogs I read. Yours just pushed me to finally add it, so thanks for that. Have fun with your momma, and looking forward to your return.

    My husband spoke at the National math conference in DC last week and I tagged along. There were some sessions on coding and we even got to mess with an Enigma machine! It’s really interesting stuff!

    If you’re code obsessed, try Popco by Scarlett Thomas– a great novel that got me totally hooked on codes, ciphers, and codebreaking history all the way back in high school. http://www.amazon.com/PopCo-Scarlett-Thomas/dp/015603137X

    I would recommend Cryptonomicon as a great book if you enjoyed The Imitation Game. Turing is a character in the book, along with a bunch of other historical figures. One of Neal Stephenson’s most enjoyable books, I think.
