Happy weekend! Why do short weeks always feel like they last forever? If you missed it, I recently shared my annual roundup of favorite football foods, which could be perfect for weekend entertaining. I also posted a new baby update—lots of excitement over here. What are you planning to make this weekend? I’m tempted by a pumpkin spice latte, though I might resist for now.

Here are some things I’m loving right now:

  • The delicate charm of lavender goat cheese cheesecakes—absolutely swoon-worthy.
  • Sunday mornings call for banana chocolate chunk espresso muffins. I want about fifty of them.
  • An insightful piece on organizing memories: unraveling your photos. My own collection is a glorious mess at the moment.
  • A fascinating behind-the-scenes look at creating a cookbook cover: cookbook cover process.
  • Summer isn’t over yet—there’s still time for chocolate brownie ice cream.
  • Also still perfect for the tail end of summer: summer berry yogurt and buckwheat honey fools.

  • Spicy watermelon margaritas are an obvious yes: spicy watermelon margaritas.
  • This Dutch apple pie with muscovado toffee sauce looks incredible—the recipe and the story behind it hooked me.
  • The idea of bacon-and-egg breakfast ramen is shouting my name.
  • We’ve been eating panzanella salads weekly while tomatoes are still good. I’m obsessed with this pattypan squash panzanella variation.
  • Homemade treats are calling: homemade Milano cookies? Yes, please.

Whatever you’re making or planning this weekend—baking, mixing cocktails, or just relaxing—enjoy it. If you try any of these recipes, I’d love to hear how they turn out.
