You know the Monday blahs. They start creeping in Sunday night (right now for me). The dreaded beginning of the work/school week. The only way I know to combat it is to ask my trusty luchadora to put up a good fight. The luchadora says instead of thinking about the work waiting for you tomorrow morning, daydream about the weekend delights. Great idea, luchadora! (Luchador mask from Mingei!).

Cath and I worked on a mini-photoshoot. The signs above will make sense with time (upcoming blog post will feature full-length shoot).

Leaves and fall and whatnot (if you haven’t seen the vlog below. well, it’s pretty much the same thing).

Cath standing outside (in her new Frye boots) of Ria’s Bluebird.

A delicious brunch burrito at Ria’s. Atlantans are serious about their brunching.

I opted for the fluffiest pancakes known to humankind. The New York Times says they are the best pancakes in the world. When I said serious, I meant serious. Like NYtimes serious.
So do you guys daydream about weekend pancakes and luchador masks when you are combating the MBs? Tomorrow will be a particularly painful Monday for me because I’m going to the dentist for the first time in five years (my teeth hurt every time I say that). I think it might take more than just memories of pancakes tomorrow. I’ll have to stop by and eat the real thing once the novocaine wears off. Gulp.

P.S. Some of you asked about the nail polish color the last time I had this photo up. Color: OPI Lucerne-Tainly Looks Marvelous (does that mean something to you guys?). I love the sparkly, but not too sparkly gun metal gray. The ring is from Shopbop.
You girls are crazy with your masks and fiddles. Love y’all!
well well all these fun pictures made me want pancakes, for one, and also made my Monday morning a little more cheerful. My bf has a ridiculous luchadora mask as well-next time you can play together? 🙂
Great photos, definitely looking forward to that outfit post. I had pancakes last night for dinner! hahaha.

Definitely having a Monday blah today – but that mask is genius, and it totally brightened my mood lol
Haha I’ve never tried a luchadora mask, but it does seem to be a very effective way of fighting the Monday blahs! Usually it’s the thought of a quiet night in with a new episode of Gossip Girl that cheers me up. As crazy as it sounds, the rest of the week gets so hectic that I look forward to having the time to veg in front of the TV and do nothing. 🙂
Happy Monday, AsianCajuns!
I Love Lar’s Red jacket ! It looks great with the flowy lace top !
Oooh ! And Cath’s purple scarf is Fab. too ! Cant wait to see more pics with the new Frye boots !
That Brunch Burrito looks heavenly!
You girls and your Frye boots.Youre making me think that I need a pair! Thanks for posting the silver color.its the perfect mix of metallic and shimmerYou know i Love my nail polishes!
*I was tired and grouchy until I read this post and it made me smile*
Thanks asiancajuns!
Hey I was just wonderingwhere in Atlanta do you usually purchase your boots?? I’m an Emory student so I live in Decatur so anything close to here would be best!
Mondays. They are the worst, especially when you work in sales and your Fiscal sales month ends on the middle Monday of the month (that was yesterday). So all week last week and yesterday were hell.
So these pictures were a nice, uplifting thing.
XX.
Mae Lu, @ thereafterish.
Really want to see the full photo shoot! Looks fun, just like you guys 🙂
That mask is so you
oh, i miss ria’s so much. so much.
you girls. TOO CUTE. y’all should come down to Texas one day so we can play!
Oh yes, the South knows how to do brunch RIGHT. I miss buttermilk biscuits and all that good stuff!
I went to the doctor for the first time in four years to get a full physical exam. It was TERRIFYING. They drew my blood, and I nearly passed out because they couldn’t find my vein on the first try.
Oh man, the last few blogs I read all had food posts. I’m so hungry now for sushi, mexican food and now pancakes!!
Did you girls mean to match so well in that photo against the bookshelf? I mean, you match each other AND the bookshelf! Amazing.
OH. it has been OVER a YEAR since i’ve had Ria’s!! do you ever do the bowl with the potatoes and corn and beans and optional cheese? makes my life every single time. and the jams in the jars at the tables? i just ate dinner and now i’m hungry.
[[maybe she’d ship me some vaccuum sealed pancakes and biscuits across state lines? j/k kind of]]
yeah, you know– i don’t hate mondays. i’m kind of a Happy All the Time person. as long as i get my way.
nice mask hon!
I heart you girls.
I love this post! And I can’t wait to see the photo shoot. 🙂
As for the polish, all I can make out is “You certainly look marvelous.” And Lucerne is a city in Switzerland that I think is kind of rainy. so maybe that’s why? It’s rainy and grey?
Have a happy week. 🙂
I’m intimately acquainted with the Monday blahs. I start to get them on Saturday morning when I wake up really late and curse myself for wasting the day. I’m intrigued by the photo shoot you mention and frothing at the mouth looking at those pancakes.
lol! what a cute post. and i love that ring! xx
