Do you know how crazy easy it is to make your own pickles? We received a large bag of pickling cucumbers (Kirby Cucumbers are their official name) from our CSA a couple weeks ago and there’s not much else to do with them other than make pickles, so we did! We bought a 2 literContinue reading “Homemade Pickles”

We took a ride on the swan boats in Boston #summerofus After the boats we went to an old fave for dinner – Parish Cafe! I happened to score this great selfie, too. We made this delicious Kale and Butternut Squash Tart this week only we substituted carrots and yellow squash for the butternut squashContinue reading “Couple Things…”
Summer of Us – North Conway, NH
We were in North Conway, NH for 5 days last week and I just had to share some photos with you because we had such a great time!

Assembled at Assembly Row
We had some errands to run on Saturday but also wanted to have some fun and eat lunch – “a pretty nice little Saturday” if you will. So, we hopped over to Assembly Row in Somerville and ran our errands. Then we spent some time at the new playground for our Z to have herContinue reading “Assembled at Assembly Row”

Quinoa and Edamame Salad
I mentioned Friday that I had this delicious Quinoa and Edamame Salad when we went berry picking at Sweet Berry Farm. It was so good that I took a photo of the ingredients to remember to re-make it myself some day. Well, last week we were headed to another free outdoor concert to have aContinue reading “Quinoa and Edamame Salad”
Family Movie Night Popcorn
A few months ago while I was still working part time, my Z was home sick and I had a conference call for work I HAD to do. She had never watched a movie but I put on The Little Mermaid and she was mesmerized! Shortly thereafter she saw Frozen for the first time and…well…sheContinue reading “Family Movie Night Popcorn”
Couple Things…
We drove by our favorite kite park and saw a kite festival going on! Beach day! Baby M received the most adorably-wrapped gift from my cousin! He wears about 90% striped clothing…clearly his mother’s son. Z was obsessed with posing in this king & queen when we went blueberry and raspberry picking. By the way,Continue reading “Couple Things…”
