Hi guys! How’s your morning going so far? I’m so glad you liked the quinoa pancake recipe. I had another batch for breakfast this morning. So good 🙂 Yesterday afternoon while Liv was napping, I decided to plant some more herbs out in the yard since we still had unused soil and pots. Bell was…

Hope you all had an amazing weekend! Here are some pics from ours 🙂 Not in the mix: the 90% of the time we were at on the couch in our jammies, and trip to urgent care (wanted to make sure Livi didn’t have an ear infection; thankfully she was all clear and feeling much…

It finally happened
Today, I finally felt like I LIVE here. I thought it would happen quite a while ago, especially with resuming the usual to-dos and chores, but nope. It still felt like vacation, even when I had a mountain of laundry to tackle and bags of groceries to put away. It comes with the novelty of…

Dog beach and weekend pics
Bella is OBSESSED with the dog beach. She runs into the surf, sprints back, and for the time we’re there, she seems like she’s a young pup, instead of pushing nine like she really is. (She’s always pretty spry, but it’s like the ocean brings out her youth even more.) Friday afternoon after the Pilot…

The return of the breakfast cookie. We had them for breakfast the other day, and needless to say, Liv was stoked that she had A COOKIE FOR BREAKFAST. She ate almost the entire thing! I’m so excited to bring these back in the rotation because they’re so convenient to make the night before. The reason…
