The last week looked a little bit like this:
I was sitting at Silas’s football practice and looked up with my camera just in time to catch this red-tailed hawk mid-flight.
On a whim I made some homemade whipped pumpkin cream cheese for my bagel. It might’ve been the best decision I had all week.
A book old, old book consisting of eye candy for a font type nerd.
Serious game face.
Not so serious.
This was a happy experiment that consisted of chocolate creme Newman O’s, homemade brownie batter, honey peanut butter, and bourbon. WIN.
This gorgeous moon has popped up a few times this week.
Dinner one night: baked barbecue tofu, goat cheese mashed potatoes, and roasted carrots, beets, and sweet potatoes. YUM.
Still my favorite trees.
Vincent and Kenya had a water polo tournament in Salem this weekend. We drove up with Silas, my mother in law, and her sister who is visiting from Louisiana. I think this dog Silas met was his favorite part of the trip.
On the drive back to Ashland, we saw signs for a historical pioneer museum in Brownsville and decided to check it out. I was very pleasantly surprised at the museum, which is housed in Brownsville’s original train depot and six train cars. I liked the above display and decided Bu-Ku-Jin and Compound may be ingredients I need to get my hands on :)
I made my favorite banana cream pie yet! The filling is so light and fluffy… my husband and I absolutely scooped the leftovers out of the pie shell and ate it as banana pudding.
Polenta for dinner one night meant leftovers. in the morning – savory breakfast polenta!
