friday favorites

I am so excited to be in Portland for a few days. Don't get me wrong, I love living out of the city, but there are certain things you just cannot do or get in a small town. What are your plans this weekend?

Thursday I saw my talented friend, Tanya, and she turned my hair back to ombre. Excited for the change. I plan to take the kids to the Pearl this morning, browse through Powell's, stock up at Whole Food's, stop at Pearl Bakery, and just maybe, swing into Anthropologie. I cannot wait for the PSU farmers market on Saturday. By far the best market I have ever been to. Plan on getting some rhubarb and asparagus. Yay for spring!

Blossom Festival in Hood River this weekend celebrating the arrival of spring. Lots of fun activities at the wineries, breweries, art galleries and parks. Check it out.

Here is my Friday favorites list. Happy weekend! xxoo

How amazing do these Thyme & Salted Chocolate Chunk Cookies look from The Baking Bird

Love this simple grey dress.

Now I know I need to buy Jerusalem: A Cookbook, it just won cookbook of the year!

Also, I have heard great things about Daphne Oz's cookbook, Relish

Poached eggs are really one of my favorite things. Fact.

Cosmopolitan Magazine featured this floral ruffled bikini from Old Navy, cute and affordable!
