Summer provisioning is underway in earnest. Partially filled crates clutter the dining room, and list items are being added and checked off pretty much daily. We went up to Airship for a few days last week/weekend and managed to take up a good size load of stuff (nice not to…

I am not a baker. At all. I very rarely make cookies, and I seldom even buy bread. But a friend of ours recently told us about this Lékué silicone bread maker (it's really just a floppy bowl with a slot and a tab) and I thought it might be cool for the boat…

The dinnerware we have on Airship is the blue Willow pattern. There was something that really appealed to me about this traditional, blue and white pattern when we were outfitting the boat. At some point a couple years ago, I became aware of artist Don Moyer. Don was just starting to design…

I've been wanting a butter bell for the boat, and found this cool one made by Red Wing Stoneware in Minnesota: Red Wing Stoneware Co. butter bell ($35) from Duluth Pack. Butter goes in the part on the right, water goes in the part on the left, and when put together the water…

I recently picked up two of these U.S. Navy fouled anchor demitasse cups on Etsy to use for espresso on the boat. They're durable, mess hall quality, and fit nicely in the cupboard with the regular coffee cups.

The boat should not have to use the hand-me-down Target cocktail shaker from our 2005 Airstream, should it? Here's what we got for it instead (Update: DON'T BUY THIS, SEE COMMENTS BELOW): Mid-Century Cocktail Shaker with a wood top ($23), and the Wood-handled Bar Tools 3-piece set ($31), both from West…

One of the main reasons we are staying here at the Pedder Bay Marina RV Park is because it's close to the town of Sooke, home of the Sooke Harbor House. Some friends of ours told us about this place (out on Whiffin Spit, in Sooke, B.C.) many years ago…

The fine folks at Turnco Wood Goods made us this gorgeous sink-top cutting board a couple weeks ago and we love it! Tiffani and Deke worked with Turnco Wood Goods (based on Whidbey Island) to come up with the perfect size and edge shape to fit the Airstream sink, which…

I’m excited about these cocktail glasses we just got. They’re double-walled stainless steel martini glasses, filled with a liquid freezer gel. You keep ’em in the freezer (where there’s usually plenty of room, unlike the cupboards in the Airstream) and they’ll keep your cocktail nice and cold while you’re outside…
