Hello everyone! Long time no blog. The past few weeks have been such a whirlwind. I’ve made it back from Italy safe, sound and full of unbelievably delicious food and wine. I have so much to share from the trip, but first, I need to share week 29 of my project 365 and 52 weeks project. And now, my week in photographs… Sunday (July 15th): I got to have lunch and swap books (a few trash novels for my long flight) with one of my best friends. It was the first time I’ve been able to have guests over at the new place and it got me excited for many more get-togethers. Monday (July 16th): Beautiful pink roses on an evening stroll. Tuesday (July 17th): Whirled…

I’m dressed for the heat and for an afternoon matinee for this week’s 52. I spent a ton of time outside this week. Must have had to do with the fact that I was cooped up the majority of last week. And now, my week in photographs… Sunday (May 6th): Cory and I took my baby brother to Pok Pok. Can you believe he had never been!? During lunch he had asked if they served dessert which brought up Salt & Straw which he had also never been too. Of course I had to rectify the situation so as soon as we were done licking the bones of our chicken wings clean, we dashed over to Salt & Straw. Cory and I shared the tasting flight…

We have been having incredibly rainy weather here lately, even for Oregon standards. On Sunday, a little bit of sunshine peaked out and Cory and I decided to pretend it meant that it was summer and go out for ice cream. I’m a bit of an ice cream enthusiast. Ok, major enthusiast. Always have been, always will be. I’ve been to Salt & Straw’s scoop cart a few times, but haven’t been able to get out to Alberta to their shop since it opened a few months back. I decided to finally cross it off my list and go get a scoop or two… or three of their all-natural, organic, 17% butterfat ice cream. We sampled their Black Truffle flavor (good, but I couldn’t image…

Showing off my new sunglasses for this week’s 52. What do you think of them? I jokingly tried them on for Cory at Anthropologie and fell in love with them. They were 70% off so I basically had to get them. It was kind of a tough week this week. Don’t get me wrong, there were lots of great moments, I just think I have a bit of the winter blues. I blame it on the crummy weather and loads of school work. Now, here is my week in pictures… And now, if you are so inclined, the words that correspond with the pictures… Sunday: Spent sipping on a macchiato at Coava and drooling over their decor. We also got our first bit of snow…
