A Bowl Full of Simple | Spring

After an overly full and somewhat uneventful weekend last week left me feeling down, this week’s sunshine, warm weather and new projects have me looking forward to a weekend with my family, good friends, a fun workshop, and hopefully a slightly slower pace to enjoy the amazing and ever gratifying SF Bay Area outdoors.  I’m […]

In the Garden | March

It’s been a while since I’ve done a garden post.  Last summer wasn’t our best in the vegetable and herb garden and this winter we had an early freeze and practically no rain so needless to say, things around the garden are a bit different than years past.  My favorite white camellias are bursting and […]

We are headed to Mexico this weekend.  Ah, I can’t wait for the warm sun and ocean breeze.  Truthfully though, it is really hard for me to leave my kids.  It has made me super anxious all week thinking about being in another country than them.  I have pages of notes for my amazingly awesome […]

More Succulents + a Crush

I keep thinking I want to write a post on confessions of a blogger.  I have accumulated quite a few actually.

The garden is thriving and the green beans are ready!  It’s time again for some pickling.  These spicy pickled green beans may have been my favorite thing from last summer’s garden.  I love adding these to charcuterie plates, bloody marys, or right out of the jar.  The recipe is easy follow and couldn’t be simpler.  Try […]
