Today, I am just posting some random photos from our adventures over the last few days. We have been exploring, and hiking the mountains between home and the coast. We have also been scouting out plac...Read More
With some good weather upon us in Oregon, we wanted to take advantage, so we headed west to the Tillamook State Forest to explore, and have lunch. Inga found us a great spot to back-in the truck, righ...Read More
With the weather getting warmer, and two of Inga's daughters in town to visit, we headed to Cannon Beach. Cannon Beach is roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes from our place. Inga likes to come to this beach...Read More
There isn't much you can't do with these Cheddar slices from So Delicious. We have been using the bbq more lately and these slices work well on whatever type of plant-based burger you are cooking. The...Read More
I spotted this cat in our neighborhood, perched on a fence post. This cat will sit on the fence for hours, patiently waiting. The cat was friendly enough that I was able to get a few good photos.

We found these Yves veggie chick'n nuggets at the grocery outlet for only $1.99. We ended up baking these in the oven, which worked great. As far as plant-based chick'n nuggets go, these were better i...Read More
