[H]ello friends! ย I hope this morning finds you happy and rested, ready for buttery toast and a leisurely morning. I’m back in New Orleans making the biggest mess of my kitchen just for you. ย We’ve got fruit pies, avocado things, and a crazy marshmallow concoction coming your way in the next few days. ย I hope you’re into it!
Have the most lovely day. ย Let’s be good to the people around us.
The Internet, distilled:
โข ย One hundred and fifty years ago this week, President Lincoln was assassinated. ย Here’s the story of The Insane Story of The Guy Who Killed The Guy Who Killed Lincoln.
โข ย One Company’s New Minimum Wage: $70,000 a year. ย How? The CEO cut his own million dollar salary to increase the salary of his employees over three years. ย Yea… think about it.
โข ย The Fascinating, Never-Ending Job of Painting the Golden Gate Bridge. ย Tall towers and tight corners, over and over again, amen.
โข ย Taking Back Detroit, portraits of a city and its people. ย
โข ย The Time Has Come To Redefine Old Age. ย Maybe we should define old age by whether or not you SnapChat. ย Related: ย I’m not on SnapChat. ย I’m old.
โข ย Something to make us all feel old and technologically inept: ย Instagram’s TMZ.
โข ย Really interesting: ย The Making of Dr. Oz, how an award-winning doctor turned away from science and embraced fame.

โข ย What’s So Special About 350 degrees F? ย The science of what happens behind the oven door from The Kitchn.
โข ย When I first moved to New Orleans, Jessica Bride graciously invited me into her homeย to teach me how to make a Louisiana specialty: crawfish pie. ย She invited her photographer friend Gabrielle, and I was quickly welcomed into their food-loving friendship.ย Crawfish Pie and the power of cooking with strangers.
โข ย The ladies of Spoon Fork Bacon have a new and beautiful book out! ย I’m baking from it this afternoon. ย It’s The Perfect Egg.
โข ย For when we need our shoes to say a lot about who we are.

echoing what everyone else has said, but I love these compilation posts and they allow me access to articles I would have never found otherwise!
I look forward to these posts every week :)
When I want a well-curated little round up of the week’s must-know news, this is the first place I turn. I actually tried to mimic you and subscribed to those key places where you seem to get your news. But then I was totally inundated with email and hated my life. SO, now I just stick to getting my news from you :) Glad you’re home and cooking up a storm. Happy Spring!
Love love love this. Every week. It’s how I get my news. Thank you Joy!!! xx
You always showcase the best and most quirky articles! I look forward to it every Sunday. Many accolades, friend.
In your next post, please tell us what is on your toast!!!!
That’s a great collection of links! Especially love Custom Printed Pet Photo Pillows, a cat-lady in me wishes to buy one immediately)

Happy Sunday! Who knew about the knuckle cracking…amazing!
Love these posts, you always find the most interesting links. Cannot wait for your recipes this week, especially the marshmallow concoction!! Happy Sunday :)
I subscribe to your blog, and although I don’t always have time to keep up your posts, I am never disappointed when I read them. I thoroughly enjoyed the links you shared this morning.
You know, I have to tell you…I think you’re adorable and I’d give you a big hug if I saw you on the street (I say this as a mother of two equally adorable adults). My generation hasn’t been doing anything very well lately. Oh, we started out on a roll…Earth Day, ending the war in Vietnam, the ban on DDT…then we all started making money and our values went down the tubes. Your writing (and excellent recipes!) reminds me that the group behind mine is going to be okay.
Thank you for sharing, I look forward to this list every weekend!
