Weekend reading is back!
Other than that, the big news here is that it rained! Water actually came down from the sky. It wasn't long, and it wasn't much, but it was welcome nonetheless. I fully admit to running outside to smell it and feel it on my face. I went back inside, ate breakfast, and by that time, the rain was done. Sad face.
I don't really have any exciting weekend plans- how about you? I think we are going to fill our time with exciting things like laundry, cleaning, errands. Sexy stuff. But it's those chores that help make a house a home, don't you think?
This week on Short & Sweets, I shared my fruit topped citrus olive oil mini muffins (because mini is better), and found you cute labels for your herb and spice jars. (because Friday free printables are also back)
Onto links!
For those of us still hanging on to summer, cucumber lemonade from the always delicious Smitten Kitchen.
6 crazy GIFs that really show the startling reality of California's drought. (side rant: stop watering your lawns, people!)
Herb-infused whipped cream. hmmm. Interesting!

On growing up.
A list of the best apples for baking.
A handy guide to tofu.
Barnraiser - like Kickstarter, but for farmers. Sounds intriguing.
(vegan) Peach Cardamom Pie with a coconut oil crust. I've been contemplating trying that idea out for a while, so I'm happy to see that Ashlae has figured it out for me
Curried Roasted Eggplant with Smoked Cardamom and Coconut Milk sounds good, even though I don't love eggplant. and it looks really pretty.
From Bon Appetit, an interesting look at what a recipe editor does.
And in a shameless plug, I made some banana bread granola this week, and I'm still in love with it.
