In our CSA box of veggies this week we got a little 4oz bag of sea beans. I've never cooked these before but they were great…a little salty like a seaweed. I sauteed them in some olive oil and garlic and served them with some black rice and seared scallops.…

I just picked up a pair of these magnetic salt and pepper shakers: I think they’ll be great to keep on the table in the Airstream. And hey–half the footprint is always a bonus! (Made of beech wood with embedded magnets to help attract them to one another, $35.) Also,…

I picked up a couple of these vintage 50s redwood and aluminum deck chairs the other day (via ebay!) for the deck at our house. Now we just need a little table and some hanging flowers and we'll be all set for sipping coffee out there in the mornings (or…

After we left Detroit Lake we met up with Tiffani and Deke over at Walton Lake Campground in the Ochoco National Forest in Central Oregon. This is a gorgeous little lake with campsites on both sides. There are no hookups (and only a tiny bit of Verizon service). We arrived…
