I had some dried beans that were way past their date and I wanted to get rid of them. I decided to pour them into a dish and make a temporary indoor sensory "table" for Rainer. He has definitely had some fun playing with the beans and burying the ladybug rocks the boys painted for my birthday. Now the beans have gotten a bit of extra use before I toss them.

Earlier this week we traveled to Fresno and I had a wonderful visit with my good friend Sylvia. I grew up in Fresno, and Sylvia and I met when we were both students at Fresno State in the 80's. Good times, I tell you.
It had been two years since I had seen my friend, so we had an awesome time just chatting and catching up and going around town doing "Syl and MB" things. One evening we went for a lovely nature walk--we must have seen over 30 bunnies hopping around at dusk.
Also in the two years since I'd seen them, Syl and her husband Jim had bought a lovely home built in the forties. I loved seeing it--they have decorated it so beautifully. Sometimes Fresno can be the butt of jokes, but I've always had a soft spot in my heart for it and it was an awesome place to grow up.
Regarding the photos:
1- 2. Scenes from a nature walk at dusk.
3. I love to photograph dairy when I am out of town. Often the labels are different and so pretty!
4. Lunch at La Boulangerie.
5. Sweden sticker--it came with the house!
6. Lichen + mantle.
7. Quail sign.
8-9. Scenes from the patio.
10. Bookcase detail.
I had a great visit, my friend. Can't wait to see you again soon!
