In addition to the sweet guest room and hallway action, this weekend was a fun little whirlwind of a visit. I thought I'd post a little photo wrap up of Sunday, because it was productive like crazy.

Hiking at the Redwood Regional Forest, which turns out to be a 10-15 minute drive from our house. How have we lived here so long without knowing this? |

My mom taught me a new way to cut a watermelon into cubes. I accidentally bought a yellow watermelon. But this is a much better way to cut it than my method (cut like you're going to eat slices, and then trim away the rind awkwardly). |
|
We picked all of this from our garden (plus a cucumber and 4 tomatoes). Does anyone know what kind of beans those stripey ones are? We thought we were growing green beans. |
|
I reduced 4c of chicken stock down to a seriously condensed, thick base. And that's our cucumber in the background. |

Oh, and my dad brought me this drum. This is the bass drum from the set he bought when he was 13 (his first with his own money). (my dad was a professional drummer) He showed me this "champagne glitter" drum when I was a kid, and I decided it would be mine someday. He brought it up this weekend, and it'sjust as gorgeous as I remembered. We're going to get a piece of glass and use it as a coffee table in the entry-living-room we have yet to finish. So rad. |
Photo roundup over :)
