Lately…

Stayed at our first pet-friendly hotel.  Ziggy was not impressed (he slept with on the bed with us, per usual) First watermelon of the season! dessert at Portalli’s:  chocolate coconut martinithree engagements and one wedding on the same day at the vineyard
it was the kind of day you want to raise the roofgrilled my first whole chicken.  It was so succulent!
Saw my first MLB game in a while-the Orioles swept the Yankees in a three game series! Ziggy’s favorite riding spot for my husband who doesn’t like selfies:  Leave me alone.  I’m only speaking to my dog today. saw this sign while we were driving through the Virginia countryside looking for somewhere to grab breakfast……which led to this wicked good breakfast choice!
street lamps at the vineyard cool looking clouds gerbera daisies blue ridge mountains beautiful sunset, but my husband needs to clean his windshield! this guy was amazing!  In addition to the guitar, he played harmonica, flute, and some mouth organ thing-y. cute bomb!

I’m having a blog-aversary!

 After two years of blogging (wow, I can’t believe it’s been that long!), I’m updating the site.  Thanks for taking this journey with me and I hope you’ll be back to see the fresh look (pun intentional!).

Lately…

A snow day for all of us

Always love hearing this guy play piano

The early bird CSA started this week, one day late due to the snow

Enjoying the delicious citrus in the CSA box

Guess Ziggy isn’t as a big a hockey fan as us

Side bangs are back…for now

a small sign that spring is really just around the corner

Sunday at Breaux vineyard

longer days mean more daylight hours to grill.  Yay!
