Hi there! I have one of my all time FAVORITE lunches (or a light dinner!) to share with you today. After struggling with skin and joint issues for years I was finally diagnosed with Psoriasis which effects the inside and outside of your body. A few months before that I visited a Naturopath and was…

How to make a small entry pop for Summer
I absolutely LOVE this time of year, here in the Pacific Northwest the weather is just about to turn beautiful (and after months of rain I am ready!) The kids are out of school, our baskets and boxes of flowers are growing like crazy and it’s late before it gets dark each evening. I love…
Dining room reveal day!
When we bought our home 4 years ago it had new flooring but everything else needed work. A LOT of work! 🙂 Some areas we worked on right away and others we moved the furniture in and they worked for a while. But left me feeling less than inspired. I have been craving color after…

Watermelon Gorgonzola Salad
Watermelon is undeniably a summer staple. I love to serve a bowl of diced watermelon with our weekend breakfasts that are less hurried and roll more into brunch. Or with juicy beef ribs and a big green salad. Or try something new like adding cheese and basil. I have seen different variations on this,…
The perfect Paloma
We have had such a warm summer here in the Pacific North West this year. Many days in the upper 90’s and the evenings don’t seem to cool down fast enough. But, it’s the kind of weather that the big pots of petunia’s flourish in, and tomatoes take over, so we love it. The perfect…
