No Friday photos today.... why?

Because I want to share some music with you instead!

If you're not signed up to Gwyneth Paltrow's newsletters through her Goop website, it's well worth doing. Inspired by her email today, I think I am going to finally take some time this weekend and make the "mix cd" I've been meaning to put together for over a 2 years (full of songs that my man and I love to listen to in the car).
