Here’s what this past week looked like
My favorite photo this week. I was in Fisherman’s Wharf and Friday I’m in Love was playing in the background (on Friday!) and something told me to look up and this is what I saw.
Coffee on our deck. Looking at flowers.
Afternoon cocktails.
The drips at the top are my favorite.
Butter lover.
A special breakfast for Cooper.
This week on Ebay I’m sharing my tips on:

I sliced some peaches the other day…and instead of eating them plain I thought about how much I’d like to have a piece of peach pie. But alas….no peach pie in sight. So, I sprinkled cinnamon sugar on top followed by oatmeal cookie pieces and then a dollop of vanilla ice cream (made with coconut milk). Pretty close to pie. Maybe next time I’ll heat the peaches first. You should make Cinnamon Peaches with Cookies & Cream. To see more of my Thursday Snack Ideas, follow my Pinterest Board!

Wanna see something hilarious? Watch Oprah make a Moscow Mule (her & my favorite drink). She also does the same lime squeezing trick I do (when no one is looking). Learned that one from Alton Brown. Thanks, buddy.
So we have my/Oprah’s favorite drink here in popsicle form.
I took these pictures in the morning (before I had coffee!) and soooo wanted to finish the batch right there on the spot. I stared at the clock…counted the hours until happy hour and sadly wrapped up the popsicles for later. But here I am…typing this post out…dunking my second Moscow Mule Popsicle into an actual Moscow Mule…watching Oprah clips. It was worth the wait.
I’m gonna go finish that video now… It took them FOREVER to figure out it was a TWIST OFF.
I love to let my oven do all the hard lifting when it comes to weeknight dinners. It’s especially nice when I make something that makes a ton of leftovers that we can eat throughout the week. I had some corn and tomatoes leftover from a Farmer’s market haul last week and put them to good use with this Baked Corn & Tomato Risotto dish. I wanted to bake the risotto because I didn’t want to stand in front of the stove stirring….I just wanted to sit down on the couch and watch my newest guilty pleasure- Botched. REAL TALK.
The risotto is creamy, al dente and studded with chopped basil and Parmesan cheese.
We roast tomatoes in the oven while the risotto is baking and if you’re feeling frisky, add a poached egg on top. Dinner is served and you barely had to do anything. Win win.

I want bougainvillea at my house.
A beautiful hopscotch.

What fireworks look like in the fog.
