Turns out not having time to plan for this trip was a good plan! Little by little I’m learning that sometimes the best things happen when you relinquish control. For our first full day in Seattle, Isaac’s parents took us to Ballard Lock. I’d never heard of a lock before do I did a little […]

During my lovely 2 mile run this morning, I barely broke a sweat and not because I’m in fabulous shape, but because it was 58 degrees! The entire time I will be in Seattle the weather forecast calls for cool, dry days. Tonight it will actually drop to the upper 40’s! I’ll try to pack […]

I’m so excited! Isaac and I are in Seattle, WA. Not wanting to be cameraless on this trip, I considered buying a new one today. Luckily a good friend, who is also an amazing photographer, lent me his Canon G9 for the weekend. This thing is awesome and I’ve had fun trying to figure out […]

Camera Halp Needed

August 23, 2010

FML. I dropped my camera and now the screen is white. 🙁 Good pictures, huh? I think my photography skills are really coming along. 😉 I need suggestions on cameras. At this point, a DSLR isn’t in the budget. Ideally I’d like a point ‘n shoot that: 1. takes clear pictures of people 2. has […]

Hummus Sunday

August 22, 2010

I’m all blissed out. Today was massage Sunday with David. It’s also Hummus Sunday, another weekend ritual. 🙂 I love hummus and have become quite the hummus-snob. Isaac and I have been experimenting with flavors and procedures for months now; we’ve probably made 20-25 batches of hummus in the past year. Today I made my classic […]
