After a month of living and working from home, all three of us (well, five- counting the dogs!) were ready to leave and get away for a bit. On a whim, Greg booked two nights at Flying Flags RV Park in Buellton and away we went! Flying Flags is a destination for RV-ers on the … More Day Trippin’- Flying Flags
Happy Friday- and if your plans this weekend include a margarita…enjoy!!! I have been living in my EVA Birkenstock’s this quarantine. They have all the comfort of a traditional Birkenstock, but they are made out of plastic thus making them waterproof and pretty much impossible to ruin! I am always very protective of my leather … More TGIF- fun finds
So, here we are. In a place that none of us ever thought we would be. I teach each year about the Influeneza of 1918 and I always thought the idea of pandemic was a thing of the past. Guess I was wrong. While I am fully committed to quarantining and flattening the curve, I … More Life Under Quarantine- Part I
My daughter loves banana muffins – like loves them. She usually eats two a day, so baking muffins is a weekly thing for me. I have my tried-and-true muffin recipe (thanks Magnolia Table) but I wanted to try something new and also try to clean the recipe up a bit. I went on Pinterest and … More Vegan Maple Pecan Banana Muffins
My brother and his family decided to visit from Texas – not to see us – but to go to Disneyland! Of course, having some of my favorite people close by made it a necessity for Tay and I to play hooky from work and join them at the most magical place on earth! I … More Day Trippin’- Disneyland

Well it’s basically Chex, peanut butter, chocolate, and powdered sugar that is mixed together to create the most addicting … More Reindeer Chow
While there is always so much fun to have in Santa Barbara- this is the kids edition of fun!!! Greg and I decided to let Tay invite a friend for a kids day-of-adventure in SB. We had passes to the zoo and wanted to check out a new-ish museum. So, we loaded up the car … More Day Trippin’- Santa Barbara
A couple of good days with my brother and his family (especially my adorable nephews!) culminated in a trip to Wimberley. A small town just 20 or so minutes from where my brother lives, Wimberley is amazing!!! Our goal was to spend the day at the swimming hole (I know, how southern is that?!) but … More Day Trippin’-Wimberley
Our second full day in Toronto had Tay and me getting our culture on! We headed to the Royal Ontario Museum bright and early to discover this (hopefully!) amazing museum I had read about. This museum is part natural history, part history, and part art museum. Tay is the master of museums- she loves them! … More Oh Canada!- Toronto (Day 2)
One thing I love about summer are the leisurely mornings. Usually- mornings are a huge rush but in summer it’s so much more laid back. I have been starting the days with a nice 2 mile dog walk (about all Oscar can handle!) and then breakfast. My go to breakfast as of late has been … More TGIF- fun finds
right turn ahead
