say somethingI thought that the 25 rules for Mums with sons was overall pretty lovely, but I have to agree with the commenters about just assuming everyone is straight. At least 10% of the population is not straight, and yet people act like they just don’t have to worry about their kid not having the same orientation that they do, like it’s some crazy rare thing. My family still don’t know I’m not straight, because they always assumed I was, and put me in those roles, and I haven’t taken the time to set them right (partly because I just don’t really know how they’d react, and partly because I feel like since I never said ‘hey, I’m straight’ or talked about who I’m attracted to they shouldn’t have just made an assumption).
I realise this is a sore issue with me, and really, if you take the assumption of straightness out, I thought this was a very powerful piece. So thanks for the link – I hope I remember it if I ever end up with a son.
The car, why cant I wave my magic wand and see the after?! But, more importantly, that rhubarb syrup. I want to go to there.
Rhubarb syrup, heck yes! I love you I love lists Fridays! So full of fun and inspiration!
So so so kind of you to include me in your list!

Pretty sure I opened up nearly every link! LOVE. I am now obsessed with Design for MiniKind and I don’t even have a kid.
Have a fabulous weekend!
I am trying to hold back laughing out loud at work reading that top 50 list! hahaha! so good!!
Thanks so much for including me in your super awesome list! And I should apologize for sending you that link before lunch, my bad. My only excuse is that I’m on Eastern time
THAT KITCHEN!! The 50 People link will keep me laughing all day! Enjoy your weekend, friend!
The Future Hipsters video is absolutely hilarious!!!!! Also loved the 50 People You Wish You Knew! Thank you for your Friday Love Lists! They’re always awesome!!! (sorry that is a lot of exclamation points)
OMG. First I was tearing up with the 25 things… and then SERIOUSLY tearing and cracking up at the 50 things. LOL.
Free Shrugs! Ha. Funny list!
GAAAH that car post – seriously????? Can’t imagine what the inside of the house looks like. I make it a point to take out EVERYTHING that I put in the car and trunk the minute the ignition is turned off.
The kitchen – ***sigh***.
Love the look of your blog now. Really great!
those time lapse videos, that rhubarb syrup, that kitchen! it’s all good!
thanks Tracy! x-to-the-o!
#15 is so great!
That video is wild! I’m not sure why it made me feel strangely emotional (and I don’t even have kids) … did it with you? Amazing stuff. Happy weekend, friend. xo
I know!!! I was surprised at how emotional I got. I think it’s cuz you think of your childhood too. How sad it is that you hafta grow up!
Tracy – I love the font you used for ‘LISTS’ what’s it called? That people you wish you knew in real life thing had me in a laughing fit on the floor. Hillarious! Future Hipsters also hillarious. You’re lists are the best.
I think it’s called Cute Tattoo Font
