Ever take a bite of pie and wonder if you could just, well…make a whole meal of it? Us too. (Remember this picture from earlier? We like pie in this household.) And thanks to a dear friend of mine who sent me an article of must-try food stops in Richmond, we made that dream come true. Enter: Proper Pie Co. with its whimsical vibe and delicious eats!! They've got a whole menu of savory AND sweet pies, so when we went there for lunch, we did the logical thing and ordered one of … [Read more...]
Weekends are for adventuring.
Weekends are for adventuring. Fridays are for laying low, Rejoicing in a good book, and time off, and longer hugs Because we're not in a rush. Friday nights are for dates. Out to the movies, dropping popcorn on laps - and then sleeping early and well. Saturdays are for 5:30 alarms, and sleepy eyes Because the ocean is calling. Climbing into the pickup truck, clutching coffee and squinting at the sun. Saturdays are for long drives through tiny towns, past blooming peanut farms and … [Read more...]
Oh hey, Friday | a link-up
Hi, all! Happy Friday!! (Is it just me, or did Friday come super quickly this week?) I'm loving this "Oh hey, Friday" link-up - it's so fun to see the 5 "anythings" bloggers are sharing this morning!

Missed Part 1 of our Amish trip? Click HERE. In Part 1, you got a mini-tour of the Amish home we stayed in, and then we re-lived the wonderful buggy ride and farm tour with Reuben!

6-Ingredient Amish Goulash.
Might as well stick with the theme of this week, right? :) Last weekend, Bjorn found - and then promptly bought - this awesome little cookbook for me! Who could pass up a book with such a specific, practical title?? :) At first, it was funny (okay, it kind of still is) but after thumbing through the pages, I caught my usual must-cook-something fever. And so, this non-Amish young lady decided to make something for her young husband - specifically, the easiest and most delicious goulash I've … [Read more...]
{TAKE ME TO} Lancaster County
Happy Monday, everyone! I'm really excited to be sharing our most recent weekend "honeymoon" of the summer - our visit to Amish country! [ Pssst: If you've missed any of the {Take Me To} features, I've finally consolidated all these travel posts into one location - check out the new menu tab at the top of the page! ] We drove up to Pennsylvania right after Bjorn got out of class on Friday. The 4 1/2 hour drive ended up taking over 6 hours because we were stuck in traffic! Despite that … [Read more...]
