Here’s what this past week looked like – My Everyday Life Week 50
Thank heavens for the Sun. I needed to see some this week.
Because life has looked like this for a few weeks.
Waking up with these two.
On the lookout:
Art date with Neiley. We checked out open studios in Sausalito.
This masterpiece was “PRICELESS”

Granola therapy is needed this time of year. What is granola therapy?
It is the soothing act of:
mixing a bunch of ingredients
dumping said ingredients on a baking sheet
toasting them all til lightly browned
perfuming your house with sweet notes of oats & maple syrup
waiting for granola to cool
tasting bits of crispy coconut shreds laced with matcha
transferring granola to a jar
listening to every ingredient make its own symphony against glass
inhaling the bits that don’t make it into the jar
you repeat the process a whole bunch of times
and have a HUGE payoff for minimal work.
That’s granola therapy.
It’s forgiving.
Just don’t burn it.
It’s been a while since I’ve been wowed by a granola recipe. This Matcha Sesame Granola recipe is FANTASTIC! There’s a bit of matcha powder mixed in. You can taste it most in the toasted coconut. It adds a nice floral tea note to the mix. What I like most is the combination of things added. I’m a sucker for coconut in my granola and I LOOOOVE sesame seeds as well.
Making granola as gifts is a thoughtful gesture for your friends who simply cannot eat another cookie. You’re giving your loved ones the gift of a healthy breakfast and during this time of year, that’s GOLDEN.
Happy granola therapy to you! Make sure you save a bit for yourself too.
Intentions for the Week: Week 50
Happy Monday, friends!
This weekend was very peopley! I went into the city for a birthday dinner and a friend’s party- didn’t get home until after midnight! Sunday I went to see the Open Studios in Sausalito with a friend and it was so much fun. We got to see some sunshine this weekend and I am super happy about that. When you have rain for an extended period of time, it’s always nice to see some sun. I learned that in my 4 years of living in Oregon. We have a few weeks left of this month and we start a new year. I’ll be working in my food journal and my Currently Workbook for 2020. Join me! You know I’ll be sharing my Currently pages every month. It will be fun to do it together. I’m sitting down with my calendar and writing down my Intentions for the Week. Here they are!
