When you're walking walking walking and suddenly you realize there are coconuts on the sidewalk.
This flower seems like it belongs in the
"Golden Afternoon" scene from Alice in Wonderland, singing with its fellow blossoms.
We recently got hip to the fact that the ice cream shop in our neighborhood serves these Liege style waffles. They're special because they're made with caramelized pearl sugar and are crispy and pastry-like. No surprise: bananas and Nutella taste great on them. I got the version with Greek yogurt, honey, bananas and sliced almonds. We will be doing this again and again.
Confession: these herby and pasta photos were not taken this weekend. The photo above was just a pretty scene on the stove on some recent evening when Joel was flavoring the oil for an epic mushroom sauce. The photo below was from a different meal: pasta carbonara, which I would say fits in the top 10 dishes of my life. Joel picked up guanciale (bacon-like heaven) in Seattle last weekend with the express purpose of making this and other Roman pasta dreams. Seriously.
Okay, back to weekending. There is a woman in the neighborhood who has the most incredible garden with these looooong cone-like flowers I have never seen before. Have you?
We introduced Luna to the Spokane River. She was like, "Eh."
This was more her speed.
I didn't do a very good job of documenting the momentous things, like our visit with family from Germany, and our trek to Elk Fest to see an old pal headline the Saturday night line-up. It was all grand and over too soon.
