Yes Spring is here..albeit early, but here indeed. Our courtyard is in bloom. I adore the fact that we only need to walk out our front door to have a lovely stroll through a garden.
I also found this little yellow jem of a cactus at Ikea of all places. So I rescued it, re potted it and gave it a nice sunny home in on our front window sill.

Seriously…could our cats be any cuter?
I took these this morning while I was getting ready to go…I just couldn’t resist.
The Olive Oil Rosemary is so far my favorite, check out the recipe below the cut.
Friday I got a wild hair (or is it hare?) to bake some bread. Luckly I remember Kim & Kjell bought a bread machine, and I was lucky enough to borrow it. Well since Friday night i’ve baked 5 loaves of bread and gained 5lbs. The baking frenzy will calm, but i’m really excited about the idea of never having to buy bread again. The pictured loaf is a Jalapeno Cheese bread, the recipe is below the cut. Although my prized loaf so far is a delicious Rosemary and Olive Oil. I’ll get some pictures and post the recipe soon.
Fields, After the Storm – faux fur, cotton, sifted tile grout.
So…my picture a day certainly didn’t last long, but i’m trying to make up for it by posting more visually wonderful goodies I find. Like Matthew Albanese. His work involves construction of small scale models using a hodge podge of materials to create life live landscapes.
These Berkley Illustrations make my heart joyful.
Even better you can find them on Plywerk at Fawn & Forest!
Portland’s very own ReBuilding Center made it onto Apartment Therapy. Check it out! I personally love this place, walking in gives me dreams of art projects and DIY home makeover glee.
Day 9 – Waffle House
Finally a non food image. I’ve been wanting to shoot a picture of the Waffle House by the hotel since we arrived, but its been too cold to walk there at night, so we stopped by on the way home from dinner for my shot. Wish it were more in focus, but its hard to stand still in 20 degree weather for a longer exposure shot.
Day 8 – Cobb in bed
More food - sorry guys, between being inside the mart all day and the hotel..there isnt much else.
