Weekend Round-up!

Wishing you all a fantastic extended weekend! Hope you manage to get up to something adventurous (even if it is just a new recipe for dinner!) with the extra free-time...

Here's some links of things I've seen this week that I've been meaning to share:

Little wooden action figures - of American Presidents!

- Those needle felted alphabet balls make for an instant heirloom + heaps of learning: letters, numbers, shades of colors...

- Did you hear the fabulous news from H&M??

- How fun would this concept be for a Purim? (Too bad my husband is hooked on being DJ Lance!)

- This has got to be the most glamorous way to jot down a mom's many little blurbs.

- This puzzle rug is pretty rad!

- Did you see the Justin Beiber Shema video? It's gone viral! Gotta be tough to have so many different "gods" to pray to. Boy, am I glad my life is simplified by having just The One.

- A modern and tangible take on the Family Tree puts it right up there on the wall!

Thankfully, the sun is peeking through those stubborn rain clouds; we plan on doing some serious outdoor shopping this afternoon, then having family dinner of spinach-pesto cheese lasagna, arugula salad, and garlic toasts. After Freida is tucked-in (and when my husband returns from playing Sunday basketball) we'll be sitting down to enjoy the new Sofia Coppola movie Somewhere (we landed a Screen Actors Guild "for your consideration" copy from a friend of a friend - all about the connections!). Enjoy your weekend!!!

Fashion Week: Grunge & Grey

New York City's Fashion Week (Fall 2011) is coming to a close tomorrow, and while I have to admit I was rather disappointed - nothing on that runway really stole my heart, there was one trend that showed up again and again and happens to be one of my most favorite (and most practical) in the winter-wear category: chunky knits with a grunge-y vibe... (Here are a few from: Rebecca Taylor, Tory Burch, and Tracy Reese)

Plus, I'm loving the hot-pink "homeless hat" on the Tibi runway! Takes the grunge concept to a whole new level!

Aside from that I loved all the (it-color of the year) gorgeous shades of grey at DKNY:

LOVE Links

Wishing you all a romantic weekend! Hope you get to spend it doing lots of the things you love with the people you love!!

I spotted this print over at the Positive Posters and I think it's perfectly romantic. Plus, it makes me laugh. I've even wish-listed it for my bedroom...

Aside from that, I've seen lots of things this week worth sharing:

- 50 years of love AND marriage (through the lens of Lauren Fleishman)

- The puzzle of the broken heart

DIY "hot lips" pillow

- Another romantic typography-forward print

- Straightforwardness via a throw pillow

-  The good folks behind Anthropologie are now launching a wedding line!

- Kate Spade's charming love shout-outs (i.e. Valentine) collection

I'm so looking forward to date night tomorrow (we moved it to Monday for some extra romantics this week) - wracking my brain to think of something extra fun and unusual... Had a long day, so I'm really ready to settle in with some homemade mushroom pizza and the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards!! The lineup this year is insane! So many of my favorite things at one destination: Bob Dylan, Mumford & Sons, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mick Jagger, and heaps of fashion!!!

But first, here are some links to all the "love" themed posts from the Freidafroo files featured this time last year:

- Date Night @ the kitchen table

- Cooking can be sexy!

- Foreplay or Choreplay?

- Love via Google

- Lace + Color + Comfort

- Breaking the Date Night rut...

- Calorie-torching bedroom-worthy workout

- Multi-tasking: candlelight dinner to lights out...

Here's to the LOVE!!!

Weekend Round-up!

Greetings from freezing Chicago!

Sorry I've been MIA over on the blogesphere; we've been busy with heaps of family events and parties! Thankfully we made it to that white winter wedding (it even made the evening news!) in one piece (minimal skidding involved!), and we made sure to party hard with the adorable bride and groom (you can view some pictures of the wedding party here). I haven't had much face-time with my computer this week, apologies for the lack of posts! But here are some links from around the web that I've been meaning to share with you all:

- Dwell Studio now does mobiles.

- PASKEZ Teeny Bits Cookies featured on the Not Martha blog!

- A new and useful mom-in-the-kitchen app.

- Dreaming of springtime in this awesome bracelet...

- An easy ode to Valentine's Day.

-  The most adorable little French bow-ties.

Wishing you all another fabulous weekend!! Stay warm my cold-weather compadres!
