I marked the end of this challenging week by painting this beautiful Bodega Bay sunset that Mama and I saw on Monday (after enjoying the best fish tacos ever)! Today’s #OneGoodThing with Mama was remembering our fun adventures from Monday and capturing them in painting! What was your #OneGoodThing today? Please share in the comments! Kindness…
The season for our favorite fruit—the Emerald Beaut pluot—is coming to an end, but we simply couldn’t bear to part with this wonderful flavor. The only solution was to make jam! I ended up making jelly instead, but it is absolutely delicious! Now I just hope it firms up properly. Today’s #OneGoodThing was enjoying homemade…

I used a recipe from the first Smitten Kitchen cookbook, except I swapped out Bourbon for Madagascar Vanilla Cognac (because that’s what we had). Delicious! What was your #OneGoodThing today? Please share in the comments! Kindness is Everything. Day 279 of…
