The walk that wasn’t

Bella doesn’t even know what she missed out on. Whenever I ask her if she wants to go for a walk, she goes ccrrraazzzyy. She runs around, and as soon as she sees the harness, I have to catch her to actually put it on. She’s fine with the leash (and will even sit pretty…

Never leave

I think I’d like to stay here a couple more days. Ocean, wildlife, shopping, amazing restaurants and yoga, not much more that a girl could ask for 😉 But I can’t help but wonder, does the novelty wear off? Friends that live in exotic or beachy locales, does it still feel as magical as it…

Crisis Averted

Hey from the road to Cali! [Random: We always sing “On the Road Again” when we get into the car for roadtrips, since we’ve taken so many together. Except we change the lyrics to “On the road again, we’re on the $*&@&*(@ &*@(!& road again”] I ended up crashing last night in the middle of…

That kind of night

We found our Halloween costumes! The Pilot is a video game nerd and I am a sleepy blogger. I’m saving Bella’s costume until absolutely necessary –to take blog pictures on Monday- because she’ll hate me the entire time it’s on… She will not tolerate antennae for longer than 5 minutes. I think we both knew…

Quality control

One of the perks about making goodies for other people? Making sure they taste ok 😉 [Side note: roon with almond butter may be the most insane combo ever] Sending roons for the giveaway winner + a batch to an unsuspecting reader tomorrow! Today at work was my lucky day. I got to assist 3…

Peppermint patty

It had to happen. After posting about the dark chocolate almond milk yesterday, you guys started flooding my brain with amazing chocolaty almond suggestions. I knew it would be good in smoothies and baked goodies, but hadn’t even thought about heating it up to make hot chocolate or, as Vanessa suggested, steeping mint tea in…
