Guest Post: Six ingredients for a good weekend
1. Go for a bike ride. Unless it's snowing wherever you are, in which case you're excused.
2. Watch Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. One of the funniest and most underrated movies of all time.
3. Make a gin cocktail. Gin is for grown-ups--so pass on those froofy drinks with the umbrellas.
4. Eat quality Camembert. Need I say more?
5. Drive a vintage car. Preferably slowly and through the countryside.
6. Dance to ABBA. You know you love them! Don't deny it.
Have a lovely weekend, everybody.

Excellent suggestions. But for one who became on gin, just one time, I stick w/vodka:)
Cheers & have enjoyed your posts.
In the words of the Swedish Fab Four "I do, I do, I do" love this list.
Clinking your glass and passing the cheese platter,

Ooh, a bike ride sounds heavenly. Unfortunately, with the rain and thirty degree temperatures we're having (even if it's not snow!), I don't think that's in the cards for this weekend in Boston!
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels = Steve Martin at his best.
oh yes,Hendricks is my favourite!
This sounds like a great weekend except that it is snowing here in Toronto so the bike ride is out. But everything else is in!
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is one of my FAVORITE movies! SO hilarious and Michael Caine's comedic timing is superb.
I do love ABBA :)

i definitely agree about the bike riding! always makes for a great weekend!
I've got snow tires for my bike, so I might go for a bike ride anyway. :)
I really love this bike!!! It looks like a nice summer trip with a picknick basket!

vintage car + ABBA = great day anyday!
Yay!! Perfect suggestions. I'm planning a bike ride tomorrow and I need to pick up some Camembert today...Yum!
Kisses and wish you both a lovely weekend.
excellent little weekend list :)
oh how i miss bike rides! (it's been snowing here all morning... but soon, soon!)
today is the first day i feel like i'm sorely not your demographic lol.
Hey, your blog is so nice!
My blog's called L.M (http://www.lmdiary.blogspot.com), are you maybe interested in link exchange? I would be very happy :)
Byebye, Lea
I would love to go for a drive in my dad's vintage car. But, there is way too much snow!
My Heart Blogged
How I yearn to ride my bike right now, but so much snow :( One day, one day.....
Ohhhh I love me some Gin but you had me at bike ride.
xx tash
love this- and i want that bike!
This is perfect! I am especially fond of ingredients 1, 4, 5 & 6! I'd probably replace the gin cocktail with a glass of wine and pair that with #4... haha.
Yay for gin & ABBA!
;)
Hi Jan--why would an old car have a particularly large carbon footprint? Carbon dioxide emissions are directly and linearly related to fuel consumption. While an old car might not meet emissions checks (for NOX, CO, particulates, etc.), it likely emits no more carbon dioxide that the car you drive every day.
Also, can we drive it quickly through the countryside?
YES! ABBA!
Great ideas! I love that movie, too.... so funny! And the locations are just gorgeous. And you're so right about Abba. I realized I loved them when I first saw Muriel's Wedding.
p.s. I'm loving all your guest posts, Miss Moss. :)
Gin & Camembert, yes!
I think I need that bike. . . I have loved your posts thank you!
Haha! I was on the treadmill at my parents' home a month ago and my mom played ABBA music to get me going! This post brought me back..thanks :) Loved your posts! Have a great weekend!
Gin and Abba...sounds like the recipe for a perfect weekend!
ABBA always does it for me! I'm not a huge gin fan but I love that bottle! Have a nice weekend, as well. XO Valerie

Absolutely, completely agree about your movie selection. DRS (yes, I just abbreeved it!) has to be Steve Martin's best performance ever.
i don't even like gin, but a hendricks and cucumber gimlet is as close to perfect as a {gin} drink can get.
These all sound wonderful! I'm going to incorporate at least a couple into my weekend :)
your blog is amazing, it is SO fun to read loveeee it!!
Great list!!! Makes me want to do all of those things this weekend!
Ooo la la to the modes of transportation!
love love the bike! how fun :) have a lovely weekend. xoxo jcd :: cornflake dreams
Love the vintage bike... yes and Abba!
Gin...I've tried and just can't do it. A good vodka for me
Here's a lovely wedding you and Joanna might like - love the young people seating - couches - http://blog.eventstudio.co.il/
I'm going to go for a bicycle ride whilst listening to ABBA & eating camembert (not really, I'm one of those odd people that doesn't like cheese)! Happy Weekend to all x
I LOVE Dirty Rotten Scoundrels! Oh, Rupert!

I was so tickled to see the vw karmann ghia.
It is one my husband's favorite cars, so yes, we would LOVE to take a country stroll in that beaut.
p.s.I hope you had a lovely "stay vacation" with Alex.
I feel compelled to tell you that my family and I have been having an on-going conversation about gin. I am the only one in my family who likes it. So your post about making a gin cocktail was quite timely!
I cannot believe you mentioned dirty rotten scoundrels! I have never heard anyone care about that movie except myself. I absolutely agree with your appraisal. Top of my funny movie list!
I wouldn't mind a bike that colour!
OMG! I love this post! These are my ingredients for a qualityweekend too- esp. the delicious Hendricks gin and Camembert! I might switch out Dirty Rotten Scoundrels(although I love) for the original Sabrina - it always makes my day!
