1. where can i get this beyonce poster? NEED.
2. chinquatots swim class starts tomorrow. my thighs are not ready.
3. my art.com order is set to arrive, excited to look at sam cooke, atticus finch and the family on the daily.
4. super pumped for topaz and arrow workshop on curation, backdrops and filters this sunday!
5. great article on not yelling at your kids. yesterday atty accidentially broke one my favorite anthro bowls. i heard it crash from the bathroom and i went in the kitchen atticus looked serious and didn't say a word. i just softly said, "it's okay, it was an accident" and i put the pieces in the trash. but not before giving his little tush a hug.
6. another great article on babies and all that advice you get that never stops contradicting itself. bottom line: get to know your kid, yourself and your spouse and do your best. it's not all in the books.
7. i need the best chocolate cake recipe and butter cream frosting recipe you got. bleubird's sounds good, of course without the basil since i'll never hear the end of it from nelson aka "basil in a cake? what?" i may just look for a recipe in my cooks illustrated cookbook, i made a carrot cake from that last weekend that is already legendary.
8. placing our italian store order for atty's PARTY!
9. amazon order of super why everything is imminent
10. planning a smithsonian trip for atty's birthday. just me and my boys. the original rump shakers. the alphabet man needs to see this and this.
11. and i need this beyonce mug. like yesterday.
