I'm Loving It!~Friday Favorites

Favorite recipe of the week: Bananas Foster French Toast found over at Inn Cuisine one of my favorite recipe sites. This is what I'll be doing while ya'll are jamming with

The Captain on Sunday morning.

By the way, please leave him a comment if you drop by, I love the way he smiles when I read them to him. It's childlike almost. He asks me 20 times on Sunday, to check to see if he has comments.

Favorite color photo of the week: The photo itself is a great shot, as far as technical things go, but the release of a rehabilitated injured Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle makes me cry. You know how we are about Sea Turtles. I want to have this one blown up to hang in the entryway to our home. This is very me and Captain John. See all the people that gather for these releases? It's very soul touching to say the least!

Favorite black and white of the week: Loved the pic of Jay Z, I centered my entire wordless Wednesday post around this picture on Wednesday. Did you guys notice I worked really hard and grouped and resized this week? I don't have one clue about Jay Z, except that he's married to Beyonce and doesn't allow her to talk about their relationship. I kinda have heard of that one New York song, but this is a fab, fab, fab picture. I have learned that when doing b & w photography for best results everything, clothes, props, must be black and white. Rule over at an online seminar was "When photographing black and white, photograph black and white." (Get it?)



Favorite new find: Mihaly Martins Here is just one more hot flash for the week:



Favorite dress from a favorite new blog I found:
Meet Emily from If I Can't Wear Heels.......I Don't Want To Go (how cute of a title is that?)

Our kinda girl right readers?

Favorite quote of the week:
"She belongs among the wildflowers, she belongs somewhere she feels free." ~The Time Traveler's Wife (So Me Ya'll)

Favorite Home Decor photo and idea: Found over at Slumber Designs, Check out the whole post Jen did of all the really cool stairs.

So plans for the weekend. What are ya'll doing? The Bumpkin has done everyone else's taxes, but failed to do mine, so that's on my list. Maybe a sexy sunset cruise on the boat, with My Captain, and maybe a little spring clothes shopping.

Love,
The Bumpkin
