Labor Day Weekend

I am sitting around today on my day off, doing laundry / getting ready for a trip to Decatur tomorrow, and I am so excited! I always have so much fun when we drive up to visit. Honestly this time I'm more sad than excited, this will be the last Betsey&co visit before they leave for HK and that's seriously heartbreaking. I am going to miss our terrible movie nights and overindulging SO much. Anyway I was thinking what things we should do this weekend, and obviously food was the major focus. I wish Margie was coming so I could try those delicious looking pizzas she made (or stuffed shells, or breakfast casserole)... Recently Karl's been on a pancake kick at our favorite restaurant Farm because he likes the lemon syrup they serve with them and yesterday a blog I read posted THIS recipe for Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and I thought it was very serendipitous. Don't they look delicious?
So maybe we can make some of those this weekend... But even as good as those look I don't know if anyone would pick a different pancake over Claudia's homemade buttercakes.

As I'm writing this I am watching Rachel Zoe, and they're talking about Fleetwood Mac and I have to post about it because I had forgotten how good they are. It's nice to be reminded:






Another thing Karl and I are doing this Labor Day weekend is going to see Vampire Weekend in concert. I am a little more excited about the opening act Beach House:




And now that I listen to them back to back, I think Beach House's lead Singer sounds kind of like Stevie Nicks!


Well that's what we're up to this Labor Day weekend, how are the Utah & NC Gimbels spending their 3 day weekend??
