A Friday ritual. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment to pause, savor, and remember.

Lovely sunset view from our house. This is getting to be what I think is the loveliest time of year.

Mehndi Mondays



Doing henna or having it put on are both so relaxing. The paste I currently use has a wonderful lavender scent, and the henna is so cool when first touches the skin.
I have been really into hand designs lately- have you noticed?!
Happy Hennaing Everyone.

The Life of a Tomato

 I have never grown my own food, but I have wanted to, reeeeaaallly bad. I don't really know why it has taken me so long to get on this, but I am so glad my thumb is getting greener. So when I saw this beautiful tomato plant one weekend at the farmers market, it stuck out in my mind the whole time we were there, and I just had to circle back by the stand on our way out and snatch her up!

Yummmm! Yes the pizza and the caprese tasted just as wonderful as they look. And PS folks, I grew the basil too. It is pretty much a party in my mouth around here.
Good times :)
