Weekend Reads: Links to the Strange and the Beautiful

What's on your agenda this weekend? My plan is to not have a plan, natch! The past few weekends have ended up being a bit stressful for various reasons. I hope this weekend will be low-key...
  • I 'plan' to: eat a nice, healthy meal at The Local Table, and do some *light* reading [I've been obsessively pouring over all of Alexandra Stoddard's books].
  • I hope to: be able to spend several hours lounging around with my boyfriend and relaxing...maybe by the pool.
  • I need to: decide whether or not I can make a trip to NYC in August -- my birthday and my sister's birthday [she lives in Brooklyn] are both in August and we usually try to be together...
  • I wish: I had cable, so I could watch "True Blood" -- everyone is talking about it, and I feel so out-of-the-loop!
