Beachy keen

I started the day with a java the size of my head and a bowl of oats topped with some peanut buttah, which left me bouncing with energy.  Kyle suggested some beach time and I thought, why not?! Ok, the placement of the peanut butter didn’t work out for the photo at all… I made the oats on the stove with more water than I typically use and because of that they were super gooey.  So even though I tried to leave the spoon on top to show off the PB, the other blobs just sunk to… Read more >

Visiting the vines

I’ve been meaning to introduce you all to the vineyard for quite some time now…but I, myself, hadn’t been to Healdsburg in a while. Fortunate for you, my Grandpa was kind enough to remind me that I was long overdue for a visit.  And fortunate for me, I remembered to bring along my camera.  Hello Zinfandel. Kyle and I left bright and early to arrive in Dry Creek Valley just as the clouds were clearing out.  It may be summer, but Sonoma mornings are still a tad overcast with AM fog.  In case you are… Read more >

Eggless is Best

Sorry Chicken Little, I’m sure you have a fine product, but I have a egg salad alternative that will make even non-vegans dig in.  Talk about a timely post.  With the recall fresh on people’s minds, I’m fairly certain eggs aren’t flying off the grocery shelves quite like they used to… This recipe was the result of half a box of unclaimed silken tofu.  Unclaimed?  As if Kyle would be fighting me for tofu!?!?  Ha!  Ok, so I had leftovers from an undocumented carob tofu pudding dessert (when late night munchies strike all bets are… Read more >

Huckleberry and Finn

As I previously mentioned, my aunt and cousins came to see our new apartment and take us to lunch last week. We went to a local cafe called Huckleberry, which is one of the best places to eat see and be seen in all of Santa Monica. As tasty as my lunch was, I could hardly focus on the food because my cousin’s adorable son, Finn, had my undivided attention.  He’s so dang cute!  I know you all agree because last time he was on the blog he got more comments than the food! But… Read more >

Did I mention I’m unemployed?

Kyle and I just left Santa Monica and are on our way to Nor Cal now (where our wedding is) to iron out all the dirty last minute details.  Can you even believe it’s under a week ‘til I become a Mrs.!?! Wow.  It still hasn’t really hit me. I’m several days behind in my posts and something tells me I won’t have much time to play catch up this week…so maybe I’ll get a few mini-posts up to show you what Kyle and I have been up to. [times a zillion] If you follow… Read more >
