Long Weekend Friday

This weekend is shaping to be a fun one starting with a fun dinner with a bunch of friends and strangers last night. Tonight there are not plans yet but a few friends have left phone calls to make plans. On Sunday we will be having a fun BBQ even though the forecast says it will rain... how about you and your plans?


YUM.... Red velvet and iced tea!

Also, I wanted to remind you about yesterday's post and "Postcards" for this month of September. If you would like to participate please email me for the address... I'm very excited by those who have already emailed me!!!

Now I leave you with this weeks links... Please pay attention to the first one about the end of the Iraq combat and another one on the oil platform explosion yesterday:


Have a fantastic (long) weekend and looks forward to see what you send in the upcoming weeks!!!

    I kicked off the weekend with a cupcake, too-a hot fudge sundae treat with a glass of sparkling rosé! Our plans include a big brunch this morning and some time at Ocean Beach. Sweaters on Labor Day weekend still seem strange to me, but summer will be here in SF soon enough!

    My birthday celebration always falls on the long weekend, and that worked so well when we lived in the US? This weekend didn't go so bad though, still had a birthday celebration on Saturday night and then continued on Sunday :-)

    The cupcake looks delicious! Now I'm off to check your last post, and a few of the posts you linked to.
