live, work & eat better on a Friday #4

What are you planning on doing this weekend? My kitchen should be finished by Sunday so I’m planning on a full day of baking cakes – not so good for the diet. Anyway, here are just a few links from across the web that I think you’ll enjoy x

These black eyed children sightings are a bit weird aren’t they?

Do bloggers make more money than editors?

This new book has a great quote on procrastination…

Also, I feel like the word “procrastination” is too strong. Just because you’re on Twitter saying stuff, it doesn’t really mean you’re procrastinating. The status update has become such a fluid part of culture.

Eat

I believe that you can eat extremely well on a budget, it’s just all down planning and savvy shopping. In MY opinion the problem lies with people not having the skills to cook and budget for healthy foods. I’d love to know what you think of this story.

Madeline Shaw has some great tips on eating healthy this Autumn

  1. Rachael: My heart leaps when I see your blog. Then I know that it’s Friday again and that you are going to “Nourish My Soul”. For that alone I Thank You. As to the blog, I avoid lipstick on my wine glass by not wearing any. I love Anthony Bourdain’s attitude – he is to me sort of the outlaw to the food channel (or travel channel) they seem the same to me. Last, but not least, that picture at the beginning looked to delightful, so I congratulated myself for not having succumbed to temptation this week. Keep nourishing, my friend. TY, TY, TY, prp
