Weekend Reading.

It’s 11/11… make a wish! ๐Ÿ™‚ This was one of the busiest weeks I’ve had in a while! I was in Miami for the first half of the week, got back and went straight to a work event Wednesday night and then spoke on a panel Thursday night. So by last night I was pretty tired. I had plans to see one of my best girlfriends but she was tired and ended up canceling on me (don’t you just love when you need an introvert night and that happens!?), so I got to stay in, work, and catch up on my DVR. A lazy night was so necessary… especially when it’s been SO COLD OUT! As for the rest of the weekend I have a busy mix of seeing friends for dinners and brunches, and going to this art show at some point today! Whatever you’re up to, I hope it’s fab!

Love this video my sister made – how to style your pillows at home!

These comfort food chicken recipes sound so good!

This checked cashmere scarf just went on sale and it looks SO cozy!

Probably the creepiest thing I’ve read all week!

A friend of mine sent me this and I thought it was worth the read, especially after Sunday’s post about being single! Why being in a relationship doesn’t actually mean you’ll be happier.

I live for a cozy tunic sweater and this one is only $35!

    Loved the letter to the editor! What a good exercise, even if the person never sees the letter! Also, the relationship article. While I would definitely welcome a healthy relationship, so many people are in unhappy ones, just because they are afraid to be alone. So sad! I too, flourished after my divorce. My ex was a lovely man, but we couldn’t make it work, divorce was the best thing for us. Grace, your wonderful post and that article are the perfect thing for every single person to read! What a great round up. Have you checked out Netflix ‘s Alias Grace? So good.looking for to season 2 of The Crown, loved the first!
