Have a great weekend.

What are you doing this weekend? My birthday is coming up soon (eeks!) so we're having a cozy dinner at home on Saturday. I'm also getting a haircut today, and can't wait to get my hair washed. (I always half fall asleep:) Hope you have a good one, and here are a few fun posts from around the web...

  13. So, what will you do for your birthday? Do you have any favorite traditions? Russia has an unfortunate tradition of the birthday boy/girl actually paying for everyone else to have lunch!

    Loved the movies from a different era and the humblebrag was brilliant. Just imagine actually being Kanye or Willi.am. The world must be a disappointment.
    Enjoy the birthday.

  18. I'm getting a haircut, too! (I think--I need to confirm with the salon, because I rescheduled an earlier appointment.)

    So I'm doing that, and taking the dog to the groomer. Mr. Sandwich and I are going to pick up my watch at the repair shop and take Baguette to a playground.

    That's all Saturday. Sunday we have no plans, but I'm sure he'll be going on a training run for the L.A. Marathon--unless his cold gets a lot worse.

  19. <3 that giraffe...he can come live with me...I'd find a way to make it happen.

  43. I keep saying I will cut my hair into a new style. But it is long and so easy to deal with on hot days and a pony tail will get you anywhere .. sigh.
    I hope there is a Before/After photo session for us to see ?
    I love the Smokey Eye tutorial :)
    I do mine that way but the brush was great, I have to get a better one than the little thing I use.
    Happy Birthday early.... which is so much better than a late Happy Birthday :)
    besitos, C

    I would rather get a head massage than a regular massage any day. Getting hair shampooed is the best! Enjoy your cosy dinner. My husband is cooking his mother's delicious roast chicken recipe this weekend

    Happy Birthday Joanna!

    I was inspired by your Pinterest to start my own and then sadly realized that there is a waiting list if you're not invited by someone else. :( I was wondering if you (or some other kind pinboard-er out there) could invite me?

  57. Happy Birthday Joanna! What a great way to treat yourself on your birthday by getting your hair done. I can totally relate to falling asleep when the stylist is washing your hair because I've done it too! Have a fabulous day =)

    I always look forward to the posts before you leave us for the weekend. Not because you'll be leaving us. Just because of the list of cool things you share. :) Unfortunately my computer was broken until this afternoon so I'm JUST FINALLY getting around to checking it out! Yay.
    Because I just so happened to have also stumbled upon an eye-opener of a tattoo... I must share. http://c-a-m-b-u-r.tumblr.com/post/16185678319

  71. Its like you read my mind! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do with some pics to drive the message home a little bit, but other than that, this is great blog. A great read. I will certainly be back.
