friday top ten.

via Oh Happy Day.

Happy Friday, friends! Friday top ten has been missing for awhile, I'm bringing it back this week with some things to share from my world and around the web. 

1. I have a hair appointment scheduled this weekend, and I'm seriously contemplating chopping it all off.  Well, almost. Here and here are two of the inspirational do's floating through my mind.

2. Just discovered this blog, Oh Happy Day, and I have been taking notes making my way through the archives. Her post about the top ten things to do in Paris with kids made me miss that magical city. Longing for summer picnics on the Champ de Mars!

3. Would love to try this recipe this weekend, for honey cornbread muffins.

4. Also, found a recipe on Delighted Momma for a flax seed meal pizza crust, which would be interesting to try. She puts up lots of low sugar/low carb recipes since she is diabetic. I deal with blood sugar issues (hypoglycemia) on almost a daily basis, so I like reading some of her tips!

 

from for me, for you.

5. Love this simple DIY project to spice up a kitchen wall. From for me, for you.

6. This week I was feeling quite creatively stifled, so I went to a craft store one afternoon and walked out with these wonderfully quirky woodless colored pencils, some white card stock, acrylic paint, and knitting needles and yarn. Halfway through a knitting project and I already feel much better :)

7. A few weeks ago I started gradually substituting more natural body care products into my daily routine. So far I've found:

Burts Bees Soap Bark & Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream

Avalon Organics Lemon Shampoo 

and ... Toms natural deodorant. I'm also exploring more natural make up options. Anyone have any natural mascara or lipstick they would recommend? I use Burts Bees tinted lip balm and gloss that I love.

8. These two songs have been on repeat in the apartment lately. Also, why did it take me so long to discover 8tracks? This is my go-to music in the morning.

9. Look at these amazing pictures from a Kinfolk dinner in New York.

10. And finally, we saw Andre Agassi, Michael Chang, Ivan Lendl, and Pat Cash play tonight at Rendez-vous des maitres tennis tournament at the Bell Center. Quite impressive!

What are the top ten things from your week?
