My Girl on the Friday Workday Slump
Me: Pk, before you leave
Me: I need a pump up. I am tired and have this cough

Pk: feel the way the wind feels from up there
Pk: it's impt too
Pk: i'm gonna light candles and think about you

WatchCool WSJ report about business women promoting one another, mainly via social media. The story notes that these women are mixing business and friendship, which can go awry, but that when done well it’s powerful. Get it, girls.

9/11 and Cake →
I’ve been in food/blog-love with smittenkitchen.com author Deb Perelman for years. She takes beautiful pictures of the food she makes. She also sneaks in shots of her adorable toddler, Jacob. She writes simply and honestly about her food. She’s awesome.
This 9/11 red wine cake post is Deb’s genuine and touching story of her 9/11 feelings, her career path, and how she made her...
