we are almost there!



amazing how this pregnancy has seemed to fly by.  feels like we were just in southern baja in july, soaking in the excitement of the 1st trimester.  and now that we're in the last couple of days until the "due" date...it's dragging on so slow.

soaking up the last of the "just us" time....enjoying our peace and quite and the freedom to take a nap or eat a meal together.  but we're also beyond excited to meet our son any day now.

LA County Fair


the Peruvian and i have have not been to a county fair in 15+ years.  we decided to check out the hype of the LA County Fair yesterday thanks to LAUSD having a furloughed school day.  it was HOT.....temperature hot (88*) for this preggo to be walking around so much.  we obviously skipped out on the rides but did partake in some fair food and exhibit scooping.  nice to get a good workout in (4+ hours of walking) but we think we'll probably wait another 15+ to go back.  highlight for us: mini goats, i want one now for the back 40.

seasonal goodness

farmer's markets, with all of their ripe summer fruits and vegetables, are beyond inspiring and DELICIOUS this time of the year.  today did not let me down.  i picked up some amazing organic peaches, apricots and strawberries.  there's something to be said for eating seasonal and local.

with the heat also upon us, i wanted to make something cool and easy.  strawberry sorbet it was!

Organic Strawberry Honey Sorbet

2 pints ripe, organic strawberries
1 organic meyer lemon
1/2 c. honey
2 T. vodka

-cut green stems off of all strawberries and add to blender with lemon and vodka
-blend until strawberries are completely pureed
-add honey and blend for another 30 seconds
-pour mixture into an ice cream maker and follow manufacture's instructions
(i love my cuisinart ice cream maker not only for it's affordability but it's ease in use and cleanup)

*makes about 4 cups sorbet*

CANCER SUCKS

yet another amazing soul was taken far too soon from this earth due to nasty cancer.  so sad about this one.  i was lucky enough to see the beastie boys in concert throughout my teens and twenties, each equally amazing.  RIP Adam, MCA, Yauch. this video gives you a glimpse into their magic if you missed them live.

dj'ing a couple of weeks ago at the Wolves Kill Sheep art show in LA got my creative juices flowing again.  time to figure out another gig and at the least...play more wax at home.  the sun is out and summer is around the corner!
