How to start a vegetable garden from your leftover veggies at home. We used root-on vegetables and herbs to start, but you don't even need to do that! Butter lettuce and romaine lettuce were both very easy for us to get going and transplanted into the garden.
The Monteillet Fromagerie is a small farm outside of Walla Walla where Joan and Pierre-Louis Monteillet make their own fresh goat and sheep milk cheeses. You can pay their darling farm a visit by calling ahead, or visit their baa baa tasting room on Main Street in downtown Walla Walla for samples and shopping!
A fun, relaxing Easter Sunday at home! Our daughter is two and had a great time looking for eggs and her Easter basket. We seasoned our new cast iron skillet with duck fat and threw together a delicious brunch. Happy Easter Everyone!

If you are a parent in the PNW or Seattle area, an annual membership at the Woodland Park Zoo is an amazing decision! The membership is extremely affordable and pays for itself in only a few visits. Even if you do not live directly in the city of Seattle, weekdays are a perfect time to visit with ample parking and minimal lines. I absolutely suggest a Woodland Park Zoo membership to any PNW families!
Natural Easter Egg dyeing using organic ingredients! Saw this tutorial from Whole Foods and decided to give it a try. We used red cabbage, cilantro, Paprika, and coffee and came up with some fun colors!
A fun mommy-daughter summer day out at Golden Gardens Park in Seattle WA. A beautiful park with sandy beaches in Ballard. It usually is a little too busy to find a spot to relax on a weekend, but this Tuesday it was perfect!
Meatless Mondays post - Vegetarian Coconut Curry Chickpeas over rice. Very easy and healthy! Love this vegetarian recipe that still has a lot of protein and is extremely filling.
Seven Hills Winery in Walla Walla is one of the older and more respected wineries in the area. Their tasting room is located in an easily accessible location in downtown Walla Walla, walking distance from the Marcus Whitman Hotel and dozens of other wineries to taste at. They feature Bordeaux style reds and we enjoyed every sip we tasted. Truly, a must-visit while you are enjoying Walla Walla wine country!
A very dense and delicious banana bread recipe. Add walnuts or coconut, or just make it traditional. Banana bread is my favorite warmed with butter or cream cheese on top 🙂
