Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everday Life Week 28
This week I went to a strawberry farm in Salinas with California Strawberries!
Farm time is bright & early!
What an inspiring trip.
I learned so much about strawberries.
I also was so inspired by everything I saw.
Pops of red!
The colors really made my creative brain happy.
I learned quickly that strawberry farming is very hard on the back I am so grateful for all of the workers who put their bodies through so much in order for us to have fresh produce!
Nothing like a fresh picked strawberry!
So juicy.
Such a good fruit to eat if you are thirsty!
Our group!
Dinner at Passionfish was amazing.
Was happy to find an Otter in my hotel room at the Intercontinental in Monterey.
Outfit 1.
A food challenge!
My team made this shrimp dish.
We didn’t win though 🙁
Afternoon spent drinking strawberry margaritas and having deep conversations with new friends.
Outfit 2.
I am always making notes.
Notes continued.
I played with a pen and a glass of water while making notes.
My margarita partners!
Chef Ryan Scott, Anita from Dessert First and Hatel from Milk & Cardamom
I stayed up late talking with Ryan and Adam from Husbands that Cook.
Yay new friends!!!
Nothing like cold grapes on a hot day.
We’re going through a Golden Grahams phase here.
Also I am obsessed with this dress.
I found another dimension in our family room.
Research for next month.
I started a new calendar this week!
I am using a Moleskine calendar this time around. I have been playing around with the pages for the past few weeks to tweak it.
I made salsa.
We enjoyed sweet corn fritters.
Strawberry apple salad with lime!
Paired with tacos.
The slow summer mornings are what I will miss most when he’s grown.
Tacos again. But this time with watermelon.
My boo.
Listening to a book from the library and enjoying a cat plop.
What could be better?
Lol.
I tripped over this guy 5 minutes after I took that photo. That sticker didn’t belong to this dog’s owner. LOL.
PILLOW FORT with Orion!
It took me 36 years to embrace pattern mixing.
Transformation!
Painting with Ruby.
This buck keeps rubbing up against our house.
Impromptu dinner with my Dad. I made pasta and steak.
Followed by dessert! Chocolate Cake with Strawberries and Cream.
Except I used ice cream. Give me all the strawberries!
