Right now in California, juicy strawberries are showing up in the farmer’s markets. I figured it’s time for me to look in the archives (11 year’s worth!) and find all of my Favorite Strawberry Recipes. Cooper LOVE strawberries so we’re sometimes swimming in them here!
If you’re also looking to do something fun with strawberries this season, HERE! Let me inspire you:
Hello Friends! Happy Monday. This is week 21 of 2018!
This weekend we had my brother-in-law and niece over. During that time, we had baseball, I shot photos, edited photos, planted plants, went to Home Depot and hung out with my Dad (did some meal prep for him!). I’ve spent so much time on the computer every night for the past few weeks, so I’m hoping to make that less of a habit soon because it’s messing up my sleep.
This week I’m working on styling/photographing the recipe cards for One Potato (a meal delivery box subscription!). My kitchen will be trashed by Wednesday, no doubt. Is it weird to say that I can’t wait to have an empty fridge? Taking photos of food I make (for a living!) is awesome but it also really messes up my fridge mojo. Could definitely be worse! 😉
Let’s figure out what my Intentions for the Week are:
& paint nails
& drink more water & drink more water
Don’t forget to write down your intentions for the week!
It will help you stay on task!
Here’s what this past week looked like My Everyday Life Week 20
Busy week this week! I had a photo adventure with my new friend from the internet, Betany!
She took me to Heidrun Meadery in Pt. Reyes to see the flowers and taste mead!
Can you even believe it?
The colors!
I’m currently attracted to the color orange.
So many blossoms!
I can safely say that I like mead now.
I wrote notes and I loved learning about honey in the process!
Flowers on the brain.
Betany is peeping through there.
I can’t wait to paint these.
And maybe this poppy.
And this is what I brought home! Thank you so much, Betany.
I bought myself for mother’s day. My mom enjoyed that scent.
. Yes, I said that. I love it. Glad I added it to my dental health care regimen. Now if only I could floss regularly…
. It’s been a game changer to my clipboard situation.
I was flipping through the David Tanis Market Cooking
Hers was a typical Italian recipe with a breadcrumb/pine nut/ anchovy (secret ingredient) base. I’m hunting for the recipe. I think it’s gotta be somewhere in my parent’s house.
But for now, I’m enjoying these Baked Stuffed Peppers with Feta!
Leftover bread turns into breadcrumbs! The peppers are tender and the feta is warm and soft. You’ll love the garlic herb breadcrumbs. They’re the winner of this dish. I served ours with pasta (for the boys) and an arugula salad (for me).
Definitely adding this one to a dinner with friends situation. It’s simple but definitely WOW-worthy.
Happy Monday, friends! Another week into this year. We are on week 20 of 2018! Every week I have this whole routine of going through My Everyday Life photos from the year before. This is the time of year when the deer on our hill are giving birth and the flowers are blooming all over the place.
Yesterday was Mother’s Day and I got exactly what I wanted. A clean house (my boys cleaned!), time to myself, gardening time, and takeout for dinner (we had Chinese) because Mama doesn’t want to cook. My Dad joined in the fun. It was a good day! Now I’m settling into bed, gonna watch more of Friday Night Lights (we’re going through the series again!) and folding laundry. It’s a wild night!
You know the drill, here’s where I spell out my Intentions for the Week so I know what’s up in my brain.
& drink more water

Have a great week!! Make sure to write down your Intentions for the Week! It will help you keep on track.

Here’s what this past week looked like: My Everyday Life Week 19
Happy Mother’s Day!! If you’re a Mom, I hope you get spoiled today!
A rainbow around the sun and a hawk. It felt like my mom was saying hello.
This week was full of adventures. I headed up to Petaluma for an event with In Good Company and Sophie James Wine.
It was a beautiful day spent with amazing women.
Lots of wine.
And good food!
We learned how to arrange flowers with Matilda’s Magnolias.
I hung out around this section… Can you understand why?
This woman made me smile. She told me that her daughter told her to wear that dress. I thought that was sweet.
A quiet moment.
Picturesque.
Another field trip this week included a private tour at Mrs. Grossman’s sticker factory!
(it’s open to the public for tours as well!)
I met new friends! Found out that we’re all kinda neighbors. It’s a small world, isn’t it?
