Some weekend pics

Beach day: It’s hard to believe this is the same little one who was once afraid of sand. We can’t get her out of the water now 🙂 More gorgeous scenery: Giant organic and local berries from Costco: And flatbreads, purchased because the sample guy wouldn’t stop feeding us. The sweet jalapeño spread may be…

If we were having coffee right now…

We’d probably be at one of the cute cafes near the beach. We have quite a few amazing spots around here -each time I walk around, I see yet another place I’d like to check out- and it’s totally normal to:  a) not be wearing any shoes, and/or b) bring in an enormous standard poodle…

Homemade Acai Bowls

Along with the handful of bases where we’ve been stationed, there’s also a corresponding food that will bring back fond memories of that assignment. Despite the glorious Southern food that we were surrounded with, our Valdosta food was Indian cuisine: soaked up with fresh naan and enjoyed with our close friends. Our Tucson food was…
