gone to cali

I won't be posting until early next week, lovelies. Gone to So Cal for my dear friend Lisa's wedding! I'm going to soak up as much sunshine as I can! xoxo

floor tiling

We got to tile our bathroom floor this weekend! (by 'we' I mean Kip...hehe...I did hand him a few tiles) Yay! We used 2" hex ceramic tiles.

Kip applying the mortar.

Putting down the first few sheets...

Kip had to hand-cut tiles to make the wall-edge (see below photo for example)

Kip and his mad edging skills.

Itty-bitty pieces to edge the shower...

Making progress...

Bam, done!

Primo edging at the door threshold. Kip has pulled it off again!!

broccoli-millet croquettes

A few weeks ago I made Broccoli-Millet Croquettes and a White Bean Aioli from one of my favorite vegan cookbooks, Veganomicon.

I served stir-fried zucchini and bell pepper on the side for extra color and texture. Very yum!

flora

It's been so rainy and un-summery out! These flower-photos from my yard and Bloedel reserve remind me that it won't always be so icky outside.
