Happy Friday! What do you have up your sleeve for the weekend? We’re having friends over for lunch tomorrow and I’m excited to make some delicious food for us all. Sunday is the May Day Parade, which is kind of a big deal in Minneapolis. Oh, and you can bet I’ll be finding some tacos to eat in celebration of Cinco de Mayo. Here are some fun posts from around the web…

Hi! I’ve been out of town most of this week, working in Michigan. It was a wonderful trip but it’s safe to say that I’m utterly exhausted. I hope you have some fun plans this weekend. We’re going to check out our local co-op’s CSA fair and decide whether or not we finally want to bite the bullet and join one. Other than that, I’m aiming for chill central! Here are some interesting reads and delicious links from around the web…
