Little Vacation

Hey y'all! A couple of weeks ago we took a trip to San Francisco for the weekend. It was fabulous! While staying there we took a side day trip to Big Basin State Park and Seabright Beach in Santa Cruz. Again, amazing! Christopher and I realized the other day that we have been together for 17 years (almost 15 years married) this next week. People who meet us for the first time would have no idea it has been so long. We act like a newly married couple all of the time. We truly love spending time together, and we are best friends. Here is just a peek at how silly we can be on vacation.

What was the last trip you took? Who did you go with? We would love to hear from you.

Hugs,
Jenni

An Afternoon Together

Hey there! It has been awhile, but we have been busy around our little bungalow. In the midst of chaos, we have taken a little time out of the hard work of fixing our sweet space. We spent the weekend hiking the local trails and enjoying each other. After pricing applesauce at the store and thinking about the ingredients, I knew that we could make it cheaper and healthier at home. Yesterday, we decided to try a family recipe for homemade applesauce. Together we peeled and cored the "organic" apples. I did the cooking and Christopher was the taste tester. Other than a FaceTime session with my mom to check that I was doing this properly, we did this with just the two of us. It was fantastic! Our homemade applesauce is delicious. We put it in mason jars, but I did not process them. If I was going to do that I would have to add lemon juice and I did not want it to taint the flavor. It made far more than I expected, and we shared a jar with Christopher's parents and my mom. Do you have a favorite applesauce recipe? We'd love to try any recipe sent our way.

Hugs,
Jenni
