spring.
gorgeous time of year in vancouver.
my friend sharon,
who is traveling at the moment
(yes, i’m jealous)
asked me to take photos of the blossoms for her.
et voila:
i quite agree, robert.
“one should not attend even the end of the world without a good breakfast”
this breakfast is from one we made for some recent visiting guests.
eggs.
french toast (with cranberry bread from a bread affair).
- with maple syrup, blueberries, yogurt.
breakfast sausages (best. ever. from woodland smokehouse.)
coffee. (jjbean eastside. of course.)
i have more than just breakfast photos to share.
but those are for another day.
we had a lovely time showing lydia + brandon around.
lydia is a lovely, talented photographer.
and she took quite a few fantastic film photos while she was here.
check them out here and here.
i’m really picky with granola.
i dislike most of the ones in stores.
my mom used to make the best granola.
the best.
(probably in part because of all the sugar in it.)
found a recipe that was a little less sweet than my mom’s
(i still love you mom!)
but because i forgot how easy granola is,
it took me about 1/2 a year to get around to making it.
(been on my ‘to do’ list for a … long while)
serious.
finally did it last week.
used a recipe from one of my favorite food photographers:
sylvie, from gourmande in the kitchen.
check out her recipe.
*i omited the dried fruit and use a mix of agave syrup and maple to sub for the honey
photo session with robbie vergara screen printing this last week.
t-shirts, aprons, onesies…
& my favorite of the day: napkins.
… because they involve food, of course!
here’s a sneak:
happy with how these photos turned out.
taken for a blog post about valentine’s day.
also, an excuse to buy more of these chocolates.
seriously.
best.
chocolates.
ever?
yeah, ever.
chocolate covered caramel with sea salt.
from beta 5.
‘enjoy’
