Have a happy weekend (+ Bachelorette finale on Monday!)

My sweets, what are your plans for the weekend? Alex and I are having a date night tomorrow and riding bikes to Brooklyn for Mexican food. I'm looking forward to being out in the world with my husband again...but know I'll be texting the babysitter every five minutes. :)

So, the Bachelorette finale is on Monday!!! I'd LOVE to have "live commenting" on Cup of Jo. I'll put up a post on Monday, and then we can all chat and gossip by commenting on the post throughout the show (8-10 EST). It'll be like watching the episode with fifty girl friends. :) Are you in? I'm so excited.

Meanwhile, here are a few great posts from around the web...

Cute ensemble, especially for a 16-year-old!

I do like to be beside the seaside.

Porter got me into wearing comfy moccasins, especially while traveling. I like these.

Ruler stairs.

What a fun jump print.

There's a Bachelor video game?

Random tip: I'm loving Benetint lip balm this summer. It gives you that perfect just-ate-a-popsicle look.

Chris Rock's documentary -- Good Hair -- looks awesome.

Plus, three Cup of Jo posts you may have missed:
* A thank-you note every day
* Audrey Hepburn's pet deer
* Yummy cupcakes

Great minds think alike. I posted that same picture this morning too! I just love those little cars that are so common in Italy! Date night sounds so fun!

Good Hair was pretty awesome! And so insightful!

Sarah Knight said...

Make sure you watch "good hair"-- it's really awesome and totally informational... plus Chris Rock as the narrator is pretty hilarious;)

Joanna Goddard said...

shannon, sadly, i don't think so, since the show is on at a different time? unless there's some way to watch a feed online or something?

Hollie said...

aww, I remember my first date nite w/the fiance after our baby. Hope you guys have fun!

Shannon of ** Happiness Is...** said...

Okay Joanna - I think I found a live feed for us not on EST...

If this is a fiat cinquecento, it is the car my mom (your grandma) adored in England in the 1940's. i love that you have a picture of it on your blog! She had always wanted one!

Patricia said...

in what regards the bachelorette, being a portuguese and living in france,i cannot participate, but i hope you all have fun :).

for the weekend:

i'll have a work meeting with a collegue/friend today after lunch, then i hope we and p. can go for a swim (the weather is great). tomorrow i'll just try to stay all day with p. before starting working on my thesis seriously - probably we will ride our bikes and play some lousy tennis. :)

i am happy you and alex can have a moment for yourselves :). *
