Our plums are starting to ripen: Some have already been claimed by the ants and squirrels, but we go to these ripe beauties yesterday and tried them — and wow, they’re delicious! Can’t wait for more.

Anniversary brunch pizza from the neighborhood place! (For the win)

I haven’t made this dinner of spaghetti and sardines for a good long while, and last night was as good a time as any.

I haven’t made my New Year’s Day pho for a few years and I’m happy to be back to this tradition this year.

Some moments from a nice Thanksgiving day.

My favorite: Friday morning post-workout breakfast.

I picked up breakfast at my favorite downtown spot yesterday, after my favorite early Friday morning workout.

We rounded out our birthdays week here with s’mores of homemade, gluten free graham crackers and allergy-friendly chocolate!

Yesterday was a pretty good one-more-year milestone: A tough early workout followed by nature’s perfect food – the breakfast burrito – some Destiny 2 time with kiddo, a tremendous monsoon storm in the afternoon, and dinner of this amazing pork confit bánh mi.

It’s Friday! I’m starting my last day of this vacation week with a big workout and an equally big breakfast burrito.
