Weekend Notes

This weekend is for pulling on cozy socks, curling up with a good book, making big bowls of pasta, and pretending like it’s colder outside than it really is. After spending all of last weekend completely glued to my computer screen as we geared up for our new site launch, I’m determined to let emails wait until Monday and let today be solely reserved for fun. Speaking of our site launch, thank you all for the kind words of support! I can’t tell you how happy it makes me that you all love what we’ve been working on these last months, and since all the changes we made were with you in mind, your comments, emails, and tweets are the best “review” I could ever ask for. It feels like a new beginning, and my hope is that over this holiday season, we’ll be able to surpass your expectations by making the content better than it’s ever been. Hope that you all get some fall weather this weekend, enjoy time with people you love, and as usual, keep reading for my favorite links from the past week!
