Fab Friday

Superbowl is apparently around the bend (thanks to the constant reminders on tv and the interwebs) but more than anything else, this recipe from Cooking with My Kid (which is an adorable site with the most deeelish recipes that are super easy) makes me want to don a jersey and celebrate some men throwing around the good 'ole pigskin!
They're oven-baked hot dogs!
Super Bowl Series: Oven Baked Turkey Chili Cheese Dogs
Doesn't that look divine?  I love that you basically just throw everything together in a pan and bake it for 40 minutes.  You can find the full, so easy, recipe here.


Seen on Pattern Observer today was this finale of D&G's menswear 2011 show (That's Dolce&Gabbana for you lame-os!).

There are two things that strike me about these pictures.
1) Have you ever noticed how all male models sort of look...well, the same?  Tiny, thin faces with slicked back slightly 50's hair and they're about as tall and wide as a stringbean. It's alarming. I mean, LOOK at all those guys WHO LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME! Weird. It's like they grow them, or something.
2) I'm not sure whether I'm impressed or aghast by the fact that apparently high-$$$ fashion this fall will be based around vintage graphic t-shirts advertising Coke, Mickey Mouse, and "love me tonight".  The colors are great, and boy do I love those sneakers, but Coke t-shirts? Really?!


This post from Apartment Therapy makes me want to live in Durham (which, in case you're not from the NC Triangle area, is probably something to be ashamed of).

Still, look at that goodness of creamy walls, mustardy chair and mid-century everything. Yes, please. (Even the little dino sitting on that top shelf!)


Talk about DIY love:

Another AT find. Instructions and more info here

 And, in case you (along with me) want to lust after more lovely home interiors, check out this doozy of a site: http://www.sfgirlbybay.com/.  It apparently gets 12,000+ readers per day to peruse Victoria Smith's lovely ‘bohemian modern style’.     And, in case you need any more reason to go, here's a snap of the front page as of today:



And, finishing it off, a video on creativity and persistence by the wonderfully wonderful Ira Glass.
