This week was very…frustrating…at the work house. Extremely frustrating. However, the end of this week has picked up and will hopefully carry on to this weekend, because…tomorrow is my birthday!!

I don’t have any major plans for my birthday, except to enjoy and appreciate seeing another year.

Here are some links from around the web that peaked my interest and helped me ride out some stressful moments this week.

This week, I had a lot of behind the blog action going on that I shared in this week’s newsletter (FYI, you should sign-up for my bi-weekly newsletter!) which resulted in a lack of activity on the blog. However, I got a lot of stuff done away from the keyboard and I get more motivated every time I work on it. Before you ask, yes I will share it with you when it’s ready.

In the meantime, here are some links for this week’s link-end round up that interested me this week and will hopeful interest you, too!

• This Slow-Cooker Chicken in Milk (Yes, Milk!) recipe is what I’m conquering this weekend. Raving reviews don’t hurt either.
