Once Riley's down for the night the one thing I enjoy doing is to watch my scary shows/movies and blog in a quiet relaxing setting. This is how I get inspired to blog. And I don't usually indulge in wine. It was left over from dinner.
Gotta take advantage of our season passes to the Woodland Zoo. Every time we go we take a different path, we go to different exhibits this way the visits aren't dull. This time we went to see these little rascals. Otters are cute. Did you know baby otters (or pups) stay with their mother until they are a year old? also, river otters don't breed until they're at least five years old.
This gorgeous blue heron was hanging out at the penguin exhibit hoping to snatch a few fish.
This girl doesn't hesitate to sit on my books. These were new purchases and I was about to start logging them onto my Goodreads tbr list when she just plopped down on them.
We take a drive out to Snoqualmie Falls about twice a year. It's usually crowded with tourists that's why we don't visit more often. The best time to see it though is during winter when it's at its fullest from all the rain ... of couse, it's pretty cold but fun. Perfect excuse to go for a peppermint white chocolate mocha afterwards.
Wanted to share this colorful dish that Jacob put together for us. Shrimp curry with jasmine rice. I'm not a big fan of curry but this was really good.
Took Riley to a local spray park. We came across a kid whose name was also Riley and his middle name was also James. I mean, what are the odds. The kids mom said that the middle name was taken from the paternal grandfather. Riley's middle name was also taken from his paternal grandfather. So so weird! Good thing the kids last name didn't start with a D.
She looks unimpressed by yet another picture but I wanted to point out her toes. Cats paws are the cutest even if their toesies are shaped kinda funny.
More visits by the water ... enjoying the beautiful scenery. Even on a cloudy August day.
I like listening to oldies. That's my dad's favorite music and now that I've been listening more Riley has learned a few songs. He even remembers the artist name, lol.
Jacob baked this yummy blackberry crumble dessert. It was delicious. Just looking at this made me crave it. I'm gonna ask him to bake it again.
You bet I was happy when I woke up and saw the sky. Gorgeous isn't it? Fall's just around the corner!!
