friday favorites | link love

( the lights @ LACMA )

I can't believe it's Friday already. I can't believe January is over already! Can someone please invent a pause button for life? C'mon Apple, how does iPause sound? Better than iPad, I think... (link takes you to something funnier than the Apple site).

Anyways...anything exciting happening this weekend? I'll probably test a tofu recipe on Mister tonight and if he survives we'll be watching a couple of dvd's. We're debating whether to throw Bruno in the car and head up to Santa Barbara tomorrow...we'll see...

Hope the weekend treats you well!
