The Completely Random List
Sometimes it's hard to find the time to write a detailed post, anyone relate? Personally, I have always been a fan of list posts. They're quick & easy for both parties involved. 🙂 So today I'm doing just that along with my cell phone shots.
1. Took a quick road trip with The Man to a magical place in the country. The wildflowers seemed on fire with color!
2. It was only 30 minutes from the Danish Capital of the US where there is practically a pastry shop on every corner.
3. Their display cases were filled with tempting treats. We resisted…but brought home tubs of fresh butter cookies to our family. They were soooo happy!
4. I've noticed that turquoise jewelry keeps jumping in my shopping cart. Whether I'm at an antique store, Target or The Gap…I'm drawn to it lately.
5. It's strawberry season! This year I'm making jam. I say that every year but this time I mean it.
6. And I signed an amazing contract this week that nearly made my heart skip a beat! Couldn't be more thrilled!
So what have you been up to this week? Any highlights?

Any post with images of baked goods is going to make me happy!
Lovely photos! But really, you are teasing us with that contract thing…..
Those pastries look amazing! This week I was at the beach with my husband and in-laws. We had beautiful weather, saw some dolphins, and ate our fill of fresh fruit!
I’ve noticed a lot of turquoise jewelry in stores too ~ so glad I have a few of my Mom’s vintage pieces!!
Ok…the suspense is killing me!! Can’t wait to hear!
I have been busy this week making batches of yummy smelling handmade soap. Congratulations! Smiles, Paula
Tasty photos of the pastry – I was just about licking the screen, I DID get some fresh strawberries today. Best wished on the new contract, whatever it is. Lave, Linda
were you in Solvang? Cambria is the sweetest little town to walk around! I have been cleaning my tiny little kitchen at the preschool where I work as their cook. Today is our last day! Do you ever come up to Northern California? Carmel is a must see if you haven’t had the opportunity to visit! Marcia
Well, I know where YOU went 🙂 Ah, Solvang – kitchy but oh, so yummy. Did you visit the mission garden? Such an oasis.
I could not have resisted those danish! 🙂 I went to Fowler Mill, an old stone ground mill still in operation. The mill was built in 17 something. I bought flour, corn meal, grits and many other things. It was a wonderful trip. Across the street is a B&B/garden center. Their specialty is native plants. I enjoyed visiting with one of the grandson’s of the owners. Of course I left with plants.
So delighted to have found your beautiful work! Hope you had a great weekend.
Congrats!
Looking forward to my Summer issue!
Very excited for this contract that you’ve signed!!!!!!!!!!
Blessings! Linda
I make jam in my bread machine. Very easy and less mess and works with just about any fruit. The recipes are on my blog, come have a peek if you get a moment. Enjoying your blog.
