missing travel

Lately I have really been missing traveling, so I've been looking through old pictures I took in far away places. I'm not sure if that is helping my situation or making it worse, but it is fun to relive the memories. A picture really is worth a thousand words. . .

tuesday: something to love

Wow. . .almost missed this one because all day long I have legitimately thought that today was Saturday. . .not sure why but I have. Anyway. . .

I made this today.


Out of one of my favorite cookbooks: Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia Child. Yes, I almost cried when I took the first bite. Absolutely delicious!! Look for my recipe over here: Sugar, Spice, Savor.

I hope your week is beginning well!

tuesday: something to love (a little late)

I am deeply sorry that I did not post yesterday. By the time I had a spare minute last night I was so exhausted I couldn't keep my eyes open.

One of the reasons I was so tired yesterday is that I put in my garden. . .finally! I'm so excited for it to grow and flourish and bring forth good produce. I'm getting a few more plants to put in today, some mint and strawberries.


Yes, I got all of my garden stuff loaded into my mini. . .it was quite the adventure!


I was low riding on the way home.


and my pretty little garden! Next to the tomatoes, I have planted french green beans, and then at the other end I have cilantro planted. It's going to be a yummy summer!!

. . .that you should take a little time to savor life. That is what I will be doing for the next couple of days.

tuesday: something to love

Yes, I know that it is Wednesday. I was going to post this yesterday, but I could not find the external hard drive that I put the pictures on I wanted to use. I finally found it late last night, but it was late and I needed to go to sleep. I was just looking back through my something to love posts and realized that most of my recent ones the main subject is flowers. I guess it is just that time of year, and I love flowers greatly. However, I will try next week to get creative and photograph something else. Promise.

These flowers were just so happy that I couldn't resist photographing them. I love happy yellow flowers.
