Another weekend filled with outings and travel and showing off our little man! Starting with a leisurely Friday. Since I finally polished off the last of the millionth loaf of banana bread I made, I decided to bake a new somethin’ somethin’. More on the above [oatmeal caramel creation] later… This is my new favorite meal. It’s been on repeat, so don’t be surprised if you keep on seeing it. That’s an egg/avo combo on toasted Essential Baking Co bread with a side of veggies (tomatoes from my garden). Look I finally… Read more >

My parents are remodeling their kitchen (slash living room slash dining room slash house slash annoying) so it’s a good thing it was gorgeous and sunny this weekend. Because we had a birthday party for my dad!! He’s 59 years young! I’ll get to the party details later. I have lots of photos of people from this weekend and I know that’s all you guys my sister wants to see anyway. Food schmood right? P disagrees. He’s digging the solids. We had a slow start with carrots, but bananas and avocado have been… Read more >

For the past 6 days Kyle and I have been in the East Bay. It’s incredible having P in my hometown – and very cool/weird/surreal taking him to all the places I grew up around. He’s also gotten to meet some of my bestest friends. But I’ll back up to the trip to get here…because we were slightly apprehensive knowing we had a 6+ hour drive with a baby. We’ve conquered hour long walks no problem. Short outings are a breeze. But the I-5 is a whole other ball game – there are 35… Read more >

I feel like this is what every third trimester soon-to-be-mom says at some point, but to hell with the cliché. I HAVE NO MORE ROOM. Ugh. I’m so full and it’s depressing that it’s not from food. Ok, that sounded bad. I don’t mean I’m depressed that my son is a big healthy baby – that makes me very very happy. What I’m bummed about is that I cannot honor my voracious hippie appetite in the way that I’m accustomed to doing. I wanna freakin’ chow down and it’s just uncomfortable. Lame. So much for… Read more >

I’m pooped. And it’s no mystery why, but I still find it odd that doing so little can leave me feeling so. wiped. out. Fortunately, I came home from the weekend of Thanksgivings with so much food, that I didn’t even have to go grocery shopping for the whole week afterwards (!!). Ok, that’s a lie, I went once to grab marinara sauce, but otherwise I’ve been eking by on leftovers and extra groceries alone. So what do you do when (a) you’ve been stuffing your face for 5 days in a row and (b)… Read more >
