A New Series: This Week's Favorites

I have a little guest post coming up that I'm quite excited about...but I'm not sure when it'll be posted. So in the meantime, partly to distract myself, I've decided to start a new occasional series highlighting my favorite recipes/photos I've bookmarked during the week. I guess I'm trying to use this blog as a Tumblr of sorts now, too -- what can't it do? =p Hope you enjoy these!

    Hey Sweetie,
    greetings from Lapland! I visited a good friend of mine from South India who lives with her family there. What an strange and interesting arrangement! Anyway, upon coming back I am surprised and happy to see your post here. Thank you, Xiaolu. I had a quick peek on your Flickr page last night and will get back to you as soon as I have time. First I have to clean up the mess my husband created at home while I was gone :-)! Oh, men...
