NANO-SECONDS

Not everyone loves laundry.  Baby Girl is tickled with stacks of softness to play in.  And she always glad to help put items in the washer and out of the dryer, although she turns her nose up at the transfer from washer to dryer.

But a toddlers delight can change in a nano-second.

Back to giggles.

And the eye wipe seals nap time.

I take a ton of pictures.  I struggle to unload them off the camera or my phone.  My goal is to post one picture and at least one word each week.  So at the end of the year I have 52 edited pictures and a few words to remind us what we savored.  Here’s to adding some structure to this new life.

ELEVEN MONTHS

BEER

Memorial Day weekend started off with some brewery tours and friends.

We stopped at three brewery’s, the Vine Street Pub and Brewery also know as The Mountian Sun, the Copper Kettle Brewing Company and Strange Brewing Company.  The first picture is from Vine Street, they had great selection and wonderful salsa.  Copper Kettle (middle) had some of the best crafted beers.  We came home with their Mexican Chocolate Stout….imagine cinnamon, chocolate and habanero…de-lish! Our last stop, Strange Brewing was hurried, but my favorite was the Cherry Bomb.  I’ll be back here to try the rest.  All three brewery’s where fabulous, thanks to our friends for the beer lessons, all the new flavors and arranging safe transportation.

THE POOL

The swimming in Phoenix was a blast.
We all enjoyed ourselves in the sun and in the water.

I think I’m ready for a nap.

PHOENIX, AZ … THE DUCE

We flew to Phoenix on May 5th.  First item on the agenda: food.  Enter The Duce.  Fab-food and eclectic vintage style.  I was in heaven.

This is Duchess, their 1965 streamline, where all the food is made from scratch

We split the slider sampler, my favorites where the egg and the brisket.

On each of these tables are vintage games, soooo fun.

And to top it off a little shopping.  Yes that is a spoon-dalier, I think my kitchen might need one.
