Have a relaxing weekend.

What are you up to this weekend? We caught a mouse this week! He just scurried by while I was minding my own business on the sofa. This weekend, we'll be staying cozy indoors during the snowstorm. (If you like cocktails, Dark & Stormys might be appropriate.) I'm also reading this book, which is great. Have a safe weekend, and here are a few fun links, if you're in a blog-reading mood...

Bill Cunningham T-shirt.

Arugula pizza.

Puppy pinwheel.

Perfect spring sandals.

Giant Valentine posters!

Daily dishonesty (about the funny lies we tell ourselves).

10 ways to dress up your ponytail.

Why can some kids handle pressure while others fall apart?

Rosy cheeks are on my wishlist.

Google "askew" or "do a barrel roll." Well played, Google.

Swedish real-estate listings look straight out of Elle Decor.

A chocolate caramel taste test.

Superhero window washers!

Flowers and jewelry, delivered together.

Plus, 3 posts you might have missed:
* Secret message bananas.
* Leaning Tower of Pisa.
* Cookie swap.

  20. Good luck during the storm! I just saw it on the weather. I currently live in the San Francisco area now, but having lived on the East Coast for most of my life I know how unpredictable yet exciting those winter storms are. Happy Weekend!
