My Mitzie

I adore her. She tries my crazy recipes. Tonight we sweetened some ricotta with powdered sugar and a splash of Grand Marnier. And then threw in some fruit. Normally Summit is the lush, but tonight Mitzie didn't mind the alcohol.


My Mitz approves.


She doesn't even care about the mess on her nose!


Until I mentioned that she was going to get an entire post dedicated to her. Can't you see how embarrassed she is?


So here's a picture of her looking all regal. And grown up and cat like!


She's kind of the love of my life. Don't tell Jeff; I'm not sure he knows yet.

Memorial Day Weekend

Hey all, it's Jeff. For now, I'm just going to post some pics from last weekend. Enjoy! (As always, click on the image for the full size version.)

ETA: HA! He thinks he's going to take my blog over that easily? The silly didn't even bother to caption his 10 gazillion pictures he uploaded. So I did it for him. I'm a super awesome wife.


Me and Mommy at the Japanese Gardens.


Dad and H looking thoughtful at the view of Portland from Pittock.


A flower both Mom and Dad noticed and know the name of, but that we can't remember the name of.


Jeff and G went hiking super duper early one morning at Multnomah Falls.


I guess G wanted a picture of those 4 rocks or some such thing.



Isn't this one pretty? The trail is empty and pretty, wandering off to who knows where (well, Jeff and G know. I think I know, too, but it's been awhile so I've prolly forgotten.)



I pink puffy heart this picture. Jeff and G were playing with sunshine rays.


Jeff said this flower smelled fantastic. But did he bring one back for me to sniff? Nooooooo . . .


My Fairy Falls! I love them most of all. And that's somthin' because there are LOTS of waterfalls on that hike.


Looking over at Washington.


In case you didn't know, the morning fog was still around. ;)


So there's this wall that has all of this awesome moss on it and these beautiful little sparkles of water trickle down it. Faeries totally love to live in Oregon. Now if I could just meet one . . .


Wahkeena.


My mountain!



My family and me, minus Jeff. Because someone had to take a picture of us!


Hmmmm . . . looking down Multnomah Falls, maybe?


Uncle J happened to be in the area and came over to visit for awhile. Summit loooooves him. She's got her blissed-out Yoda face on.


G's GQ pose.
