weekend/monday.

Things that made my weekend/Monday:

• Making spaghetti carbonara for girlfriends. And enjoying lots of leftovers. (I've consumed little besides cheese, cream, and pasta in the past 48 hours.) 
• Also, arugula. I can't get enough of it with olive oil, vinegar, and salt.
• Getting my hands dirty potting basil, mint, cilantro, banana peppers, and sweet little succulents.
• Almost staying under my $20 goal. The New York Times put me $3 over, but it was definitely worth it.
• Relaxing on the deck in the sun with the aforementioned paper and my lazy dog.
• Lots and lots of the Avett Brothers. Emotionalism, specifically.
• Learning to make cold-pressed coffee. (This may actually fit in the making my life category.)
• Long walks on the beach filled with plan-making followed by hotdogs.

I think I want to start a habit of making sure Mondays don't suck. Monday Funday, anyone?
