Kickoff to the Week!!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend!! I mistakenly didn’t put this post up last night, and honestly didn't fouc much on it last week… so it’s a kickoff to the week rather than a close to the weekend—I’ll mesh it into gratitude Monday.

How was your weekend? Do anything exciting? That football game was… something to say the least. Thank god I had study calculus questions to do while I watched. Did your team win?

Have a good Monday!!!

Some of my favorite links this week---

Some of the best conversations I have had with my mom have begun with a question that asks about the real person behind the guise of motherhood. I cherish these conversations and look forward to many more.

Because David Beckham is always so damn attractive that this is just the icing on the cake.

Extra Virgin Suicide (olive oil, don’t worry guys!)
