I’m back. Life is busy. Writing is hard. I saw Civil War with Daniel and Dad. Let’s have some toffee. Matzah Toffee Ingredients: 4-6 sheets matzah (enough to cover your cookie sheet) 1 cup (2 sticks) butter 1 cup packed light brown sugar A big pinch of sea salt 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract… Read More Matzah Toffee
I think this is probably my favorite place. Really. You know how Cait is about cake and Katie is about pizza? That’s probably me about Bowman Bay. The smell when you get out of the car. It’s like ocean mixed with pine trees. I could smell it forever. Anyway, Monday was probably my happiest photo trip… Read More Bowman Bay & Lighthouse Point
Hey, everyone! Well… I’m back. *checks notifications and reader* Wow. You all have been busy, haven’t you? Anyway, the random writing snippets won the poll I put up, so they’ll be first in the post lineup. So, these are from my new writing prompt book, UnJournaling (which is quite awesome). I did about one a… Read More Writefury Returns & Random Writings
It’s one of those times of year again! 😛 So, our family has been taking internet fasts for the feasts this past year (I’ve taken Sukkot and Hannukah off, if you guys have been following for a while) and Passover finishes up the cycle. I’ve been not as consistent as usual in the past weeks… Read More Passover Hiatus
Hey, guys! So, as I did not mention in my last post, I was gone over the weekend because our family went to Oregon. There was this national shabbat thing going on that was pretty cool and we were planning to go to it for a while. Turns out, the weekend it was on was… Read More Silver Falls Park
Like I said a few photo posts back, I’m going through some old photos. So, this actually happened back around August/September. But it might be my favorite event in the area. The Highland Games is where all the people of Scottish decent come and find their clan’s booth, listen to bagpipe music and poke around… Read More The Highland Games
As you might have guessed by the exciting title, I had an adventure yesterday. Lots of fun stuff. Thankfully, the weather decided to cooperate for once. 😛 So, Squink and I tagged along with our Auntie A’s little explorer group. They needed a few extra helpers since the chosen location was a trail at Washington… Read More Washington Park: Cliffs & Seals & Porpoises, Oh My!
The first of our two-in-a-row birthdays is today and my little brother Isaiah is now 4! 🙂 Tomorrow, James will turn 6. Both of them have been very good about posing for me and being adorable photo subjects through their lives, so I thought I’d do a photo post to celebrate both of them. I’ll… Read More Little Brother Photos
So, as a few of you know from references in previous posts, I am the oldest child in a rather large family. Not always taken to be the oldest, but I am. I have seven younger siblings who are all really awesome and fun in their own ways with totally different personalities. They are my… Read More Top 5 Writer Big Sister Moments
So. 2016. Whoo. Where’d the year go, huh? Actually, it went a lot of awesome places, but man, it went there fast. A few blog highlights from that: A new camera, more learning on the photography front and lots of awesome pictures. A writers’ conference in Surrey where I learned lots concerning the writing craft… Read More Writefury: A Year in Review (and a present…)
