Weekend Links -May 19, 2012

We figure the weekend might be a time you look around the internet a bit more than usual.  If so, we wanted to share a few recent links we are loving this week...

 

Even Jay's sweet grandparents are totally into coconut oil, here are LOTS of uses for it (122 to be exact)

 

Another one of Target's great collaborations--The Shops at Target--this time it throws a bone to the "mom & pop shops" (I got this for Mother's Day)

 

James has just discovered water balloons (scary, I know), which made this photo series of  water balloons in mid-burst all the more interesting

 

COFFEE FOREVER!  Loving the black gold into my 90s

 

Just might makes these cinnamon roll almond flour donuts and dunk them in my black gold

 

Very lovely Mother's Day brunch by Sunday Suppers with recipes

 

Absolutely heartbreaking/heartwarming video about a mother and her special needs baby

 

50 great-looking downloadable fonts (many of which are FREE)

 

Lots of delicious options for COOKING spinach (no need to gag down the raw stuff)

 

For me, getting ready for outdoor summer fun ALWAYS includes a big floppy hat (I've got enough problems--I don't skin cancer!), here are some cute options

 

Really interesting article on smells & memory  AND correspondingly, how to make your own perfume (wish I could bottle that smell of my grandparents' house)

 

Love finding (or more specifically hearing) beauty in unexpected places...Gabriel Royal singing in the Brooklyn subway

 

ENJOY SWEET PEOPLE --- HAPPY WEEKEND!!!

I will have a marathon of doctors' appointments on Monday - 3 back-to-back, actually (my husband's brilliant idea to avoid 3 separate trips to UCLA.)  Please pray for them (and for us).  WE ARE SO TIRED OF DOCTOR VISITS.  NO MORE!  (Good thing I have a fabulous weekend to enjoy first...)
