Beet and Sunflower Greens Salad

It is getting seriously HOT in the valley! This week I could not muster the willpower to turn on the oven, let alone the stove without breaking out in a sweat. So in the meantime, I am turning to this no-heat wonder salad to survive the heat! Although it took me a little while to [...]

This summer, I have decidedly planted myself at home. I love my family and there is nowhere I would rather be so long as I am with them. However, I would be lying if I said I hadn't felt the slightest pang of longing yesterday as I took a virtual tour of Sorrento, Italy while [...]

As much as I hate the heat, I have to hand it to summer for producing the best fruits and vegetables during the sweltering months of June through September. In my hometown of Fresno, CA we experience the kind of heat where you risk getting third degree burns from touching your steering wheel if you [...]

Currently contemplating how sore I will be after Pilates today, but in the meantime here is a throwback of me with my *ish* together. ๐Ÿ˜…
@sarahbraybermuda is here @bluehillsatroundtop and I just about passed out from sheer joy when I happened to stumble across her tent! Not only are her hats absolutely GORGEOUS, but Sarah is a gem! Be sure to stop by and treat yourself to a beautifully-brimmed (and affordable) sun hat!๐Ÿคฉ
@kristinmullendesigns you had me at โ€œDear Reader...โ€ #ladywhistledown
๐‘ฉ๐‘ฌ๐‘บ๐‘ป-๐‘ฌ๐‘ฝ๐‘ฌ๐‘น ๐‘ฎ๐‘น๐‘จ๐‘ฐ๐‘ต-๐‘ญ๐‘น๐‘ฌ๐‘ฌ ๐‘ฎ๐‘น๐‘จ๐‘ต๐‘ถ๐‘ณ๐‘จ ๐Ÿคฉ โ€œI want all of you, forever, you and me every dayโ€. My relationship with this granola is kinda like the movie The Notebook - dramatic, but deeply passionate. ๐Ÿ˜‚ While Noah and Allie might have a complicated story, my story with this granola is not so. I pretty much threw together all the ingredients I would want in a granola and somehow managed to create scrumptious clusters of salty-sweet goodness. Zach even said it is the best granola he has ever had (which made me blush of course โ˜บ๏ธ). So here it is, my best-ever grain-free granola! I hope you love it too! ๐Ÿ’–
So very proud to see @kristinmullendesigns vision come to life here @bluehillsatroundtop! We have been working nonstop and between split nails and some serious under eye bags, I look a little worse for wear. ๐Ÿ˜… However, this project is SO worth the hustle and embodies Kristin to a tee. Come see us at Round Top starting today through April 3rd!
Saturdayโ€™s and hydrangeas are two of my favorite things.๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’ What are two things that make you smile? Drop in the comments below!๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

I have been craving heartier lunch alternatives to protein bars and yogurts, so I decided quinoa was the perfect plant-based protein to highlight in this recipe. Of course, what brings this recipe to life is fresh herbs and produce that make it both bright and refreshing. In fact, I had a serendipitous encounter with some corn at Central Market the other day and immediately knew it belonged in this recipe! ๐ŸŒฝ๐Ÿ˜ŒNeedless to say, this is not your average salad! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป
On Thursday I had to get my car towed (long story LOL๐Ÿ™ˆ), but later that day I caught this snapshot and it reminded me of a Matisse quote: โ€œThere are always flowers for those who want to see themโ€. Granted, it would have been hard to miss this absolutely jaw-dropping view. However, there is always beauty, even on days where we are challenged to find the flowers.๐Ÿ’๐ŸŒˆโ›…๏ธ
Celebrated surviving my first *official* week of work on Sunday the only way I know how - with fajitas, fringe, and frills. ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ My ardor for Las Palmas is only paralleled by my love for my new job (and surpassed by my love for @zachscottevans ๐Ÿฅฐ)
