What are you up to this weekend? I\u2019m getting over the worst cold and cough (ahem<\/a>), so tonight we are staying home and ordering Indian food. Nothing a little chana masala can\u2019t solve. Hope you have a good one, and here are a few links from around the web\u2026<\/p>\n How gorgeous are these hair before-and-afters<\/a>????<\/p>\n This week, I went to a dinner party at cookbook author Casey Elsass\u2019s<\/a> apartment, and his dishes were amazing, but my favorite part was that, instead of cheese or nuts, he set out a bowl of Nacho Cheese Doritos at the beginning and everyone freaking LOVED it.<\/p>\n Wow, photos of ice water swimmers in Ireland<\/a>.<\/p>\n My skin has felt dry and dull all winter, and after trying everything<\/em>, this moisturizer<\/a> saved the day. It\u2019s SO GOOD, you guys.<\/p>\n Digging the design of this postage stamp<\/a>.<\/p>\n Hard feelings<\/a>. \u201cOver the past week, the Iranian American community has been fracturing in real time across dinner tables, in group chats, in the silence of blocked numbers.\u201d (NYMag, via Maybe Baby<\/a>) Also, a few ways to help<\/a>.<\/p>\n 50 ways to meet your neighbors<\/a>. \u201c33.

The first time you wear your baseball cap backwards, people might say, \u2018Why are you wearing your hat that way?\u2019 But when they\u2019ve seen you do it three times, they just think, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s what she does.\u2019 Then you\u2019re home free!\u201d<\/p>\n Says Kayla on Minneapolis pancakes<\/a>: \u201cThis post made my whole dang day. Ideal Diner is one of my favorite spots in Minneapolis. As a regular, I\u2019ve made friends by sharing my pancakes with new customers. I did it so often that the cook would joke, \u2018I swear we don\u2019t pay her to do this.\u2019 That diner is a damn gem. Their motto is: \u2018Where regular people are special, and special people are regular.\u2019 Hugs from MN! (Message me if you wanna meet at Ideal.)\u201d<\/p>\n
