Pumpkin & Pomegranate

On Saturday  I started off the morning at my favorite coffee place. Fonté is in downtown Seattle, so it is a bit of a trek (plus paying for parking), but the coffee is so worth it. I had a little bit of time to catch up on my magazines before heading out to drop off [...]

I wanted to wait until I worked my first day to share the exciting news, but I recently got a part time job at my favorite health cafe, Healeo. I have to give my friend Valentina credit for part of this, as we both follow Healeo on Twitter and she clued me in to an [...]

I hope you are all having a wonderful Friday! I am in a great mood because my father is visiting me. I haven’t seen him for a year, and that is the longest I have ever gone without seeing him. I don’t want it to go this long again. I love my dad very very [...]

As I mentioned in a previous post, I took a day off from work yesterday because my dear friend Elizabeth was in town. I haven’t seen her in nearly 2 years (or maybe almost 3!) so it was SO nice to have her visit. I am just glad her sweet husband had some work in [...]

It’s official! It’s Fall! So for any of you who celebrate the equinox, I wish you a happy one! I took a rather blissful walk last night celebrating the change in season, and took a few photos along the way (sorry, it was dusk and the light was not working with me). I walked down [...]

I promise more recipes soon! I have one that I will be uploading later today that is a staple for my Fall kitchen. By the way did you know that “Fall” is a North  American English = term? I remember a European friend commenting on why we call it “Fall” and I assumed it had [...]

It’s another sunny day here in Seattle. I had to be at work at 7:00 this morning for a meeting, and I woke up to a gorgeous sunrise. That made the early wake up a little easier. Plus quite honestly I had a huge cup of tea before bed, and instead of lolling in bed [...]

It’s a bit warm for me today, not like Summer heat, but I prefer for it to be in the upper 60′s by this point. I am ready for sweater weather. I shouldn’t complain, and I know this will bite me on the butt when January rolls around, but I can’t help it. Fall is [...]

I was really hoping to have a fabulous pumpkin cake recipe for you today.  I went to work on it yesterday after work as I have been out of my mid morning snacks for about a week. What I like to do is to bake a loaf of bread or muffins, or something of that [...]

Today’s date makes me giggle a little. It’s very pleasing to my OCD brain that wants to add things up, divide them, square root them…etc. Oh and no I am not good at math. Such is life. Right now I am at work, procrastinating spreading out my work so that I will have some work [...]
