\"Walking<\/a>

(I always love the light this time of year.)<\/p><\/div>\n

We eased back into our routine this week, and now it’s Friday again! The weather is really cold (for central Texas) and we’re preparing for a cozy weekend indoors. I’m hoping the sun starts shining again soon, but winter is very short-lived here, so I remind myself to enjoy it. Here are a few things that caught my eye this week.<\/p>\n

“Write about who you are, not who you want to become.”<\/a><\/p>\n

An activist from Kenya offers advice to America<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A list of ethical brands in Austin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kareem Abdul-Jabar writes about Mycroft Holmes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Arthur takes on “Downton Abbey.”<\/a> Arthur is a big deal at our house these days, and I can’t wait to watch this with my boys!<\/p>\n

I never wear nail polish on my hands, and it seems that’s the new trend for winter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pictures of abandoned theme parks<\/a>. Because stuff like this never gets old.<\/p>\n

Have a wonderful weekend and stay warm!<\/p>\n
