Eats around here have been blessedly simple. I’m learning that for food [...]

Ah! This is the first weekend Jonathan and I have had a home, doing nothing, for over two months. Wooooow. For two introverts it was quite taxing! This is the weekend break we get before another onslaught: yoga teacher training weekends, weddings, showers, girls nights, and then–our year anniversary! We’ll be marriage toddlers then [...]

Hello! Wow, what a weekend. First of all, Jonathan and I visited Stonehenge..
Okay, so actually it’s “Stonehenge II”, outside of Hunt, Texas.
We had a fun weekend! We went to Mo Ranch, a campground on the Guadalupe River in the Hill Country. Very beautiful. We hung out with the families, both sides, hiked, swam and ate. [...]

Jonathan got one of his favorites, salmon:
