Doesn’t this photo scream weekend lounging? There’s nothing better than lazy days with your favorite friends.

A huge congrats to my little brother for his induction into our high school’s Hall of Fame tonight!! I am so proud of him. I couldn’t ask for a better brother! And to my fellow Smellies running Ragnar Napa this weekend…stay safe and have fun!

• I took a fashion style quiz after seeing the link on Art in the Find. Apparently, I’m ladylike. Reading through the description, I decided it was pretty accurate. What are you?
• When Jim brought up self-driving cars a couple of years ago, I laughed at him like he was crazy. Turns out he’s even smarter than I thought. Audi is testing self-driving cars in California. The future is here!
• I thought this article about Bobbi Brown was inspiring. It was also refreshing to see Estee Lauder, which owns the Bobbi Brown brand, allow her the creative freedom to be successful. Who wouldn’t rather work in a relaxed, creative environment where you can wear jeans?!
• If you’re anything like me, you probably miss Sex and the City. This list of 50 things you probably didn’t know about the series made me miss it even more. Why isn’t it on Netflix or Hulu?!

And for my Phoenix friends, it’s AZ Restaurant Week! From today through September 28th, you can enjoy three course meals at great spots around the valley (and Tucson too). I’m trying Earnest for the first time tomorrow night and House Brasserie on Thursday with my girlfriends. Also, Childsplay is bringing Charlotte’s Web to the stage now through October 12th. Charlotte’s Web was one of my favorite books growing up and Childsplay is a great organization.

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend full of fun!
