Friday night dinner out: pecan crusted chicken salad | I wore my new feather earrings
Hello Monday! Did everyone have a nice weekend? Mine was busy, as I knew it would be but went fairly slowly (surprise, surprise). I snapped a few photos with my iPhone over the weekend to share with you all.

My good work friend having a baby. Her friend threw her a baby shower. She invited me. I went. So did many other women. She's having a girl. We played games. We ate a lot of (yummy) food. She opened many gifts. And we all celebrated. Congrats Lala!

I'm in the market for a new pair of glasses. Currently I have these but found the above last week and can't stop thinking about them. I snapped a quick pic so you could all weigh in. I've never had plastic frames before because they're hard to find to fit my face. So, ladies, help a sistah out: are these glasses the ones?
What do you have planned for the weekend? Tonight I am getting together with seven other girls for dinner downtown at a hot spot. Tomorrow, I plan to sleep in and get some laundry done (those baskets are overflowing) and then heading to a birthday party in the evening. Sunday, of course, is Mothers' Day and my sister and I are hosting a brunch at her place for our mom. Jam packed, just the way I like it. Have a great weekend!
Here are some fun links from around the web:

* Sometimes you just need a good laugh.
* Oh yeah, I joined Pinterest.

So I know I mentioned at some point before that I was going to consign some of my clothes. I've never really done much of this before, I always just donate my clothes to the GoodWill or Salvation Army (of course I let my girlfriends go through the stuff beforehand if they want), but this time I thought I'd try my hand at it. There is a chic consignment store I like in an 'up-and-coming' (or perhaps 'already up') neighbourhood that takes items that would actually be in my closet (aka non-designer) but still have slightly higher standards than your average consignment shop. I dropped off close to 40 items in March and knew they'd be on the floor, for sale, for two months. I called the other day to see what my account balance was at and... I made $140! What a score! I was ecstatic. I went to the store, checked out their inventory and eventually cashed out. I'm a true consignment believer now and plan to always do this. Have you ever consigned anything? Are you strictly a donater? I'd love to hear.
