Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Well, I am stealing this clever little post from my good friend Kari Kinsey, but I wanted to share a couple of my favorite things lately...

don't you just love my dinosaur wrappers?
These, my friends, are strawberry orange whole wheat muffins. I call them that because that makes them sound healthier than they are. the end. You don't need to know the bad, just the good. But, they really are whole wheat strawberry orange muffins. Delicioso!

Grandma Jean's recipe for strawberry jam
This jam is scrumptious and magical. And, now that I know how easy it is to make, I am still hoping people will "ooh" and "ahh" and how cool it is that I made my grandma's strawberry jam. I just love the jars too. They are from crate and barrel, thanks to a very old wedding gift card I had hoarded for the past 1 1/2 years. There is just something magical about grandma's cooking, right?

Yoga, specifically my all-time favorite, Crow. Thanks to Taryn Phillips for introducing me to how incredibly cool yoga is! And being so patient to teach my my favorite pose.


why, Starbuck, aren't you annoying?

 I really wish I could complete my training, because I want to learn so much more! But its going to be a few months till the trainings I need are in my area.


My awesome husband, and precious nephew Ralston. He is way cute


Starbuck, about 13 weeks last summer
What a cute little baby he was.

I hope you all are having a great August!
