lets see...

This week has been very similar to last week, swimming at our friend's pool, lazy days, B going to art camp, having dinner with friends, etc... Pretty chill, but also fun and relaxing. For dinner a couple nights ago I tried this Italian dish, to be honest, it was just okay, kinda bland so I don't think its a repeater.

I have a confession, I've been holding out on you. I know, I know, its criminal, but I'm about to make things right. I often buy bananas and they go bad before they are all eaten, I hate throwing out food so I often make banana bread, and to mix it up every once in a while I add chocolate chips (I know, I know, I'm a big risk taker!!). While this is all fine and well, I get tired of banana bread and the other day I wanted to mix it up and try something different with my rotting bananas. I googled some recipes and this is what I came up with. OH.MY.GOSH. this stuff is UNREAL! I literally can't stay out of it!! I had to take some to some friends just to get it out of my house!! Adam told me he doesn't know why I would ever make banana bread again if I could just make this instead! I agree!! So, anyhow, if you like bananas, and chocolate chips, and coffee cake, give it a whirl, you will.not. be disappointed (and if you are, well, I'm not sure we can be friends so maybe don't tell me).

In other news, the Winn's departure date for the summer is quickly approaching! If you want a photo session will me, there are still spots available in Portland, OR and San Francisco, CA so shoot me an email and I will do my best to make it happen! We just found out we will be in Montana for several days as well so if any readers happen to be around Bigfork, let me know! :)

What else....??? Oh, in keeping w/ sharing the ol' weight loss, I'm down 7lbs, 15 more to go. I haven't been super hard core since being on staycation and all, but the scale is still moving downward so that's good!

I think that's about all, sorry, not much exciting to share around here! As always, thanks for checking in!! xo

Will you be driving thru Spokane on your way to Montana??? Would be awesome to see you even if it was just for a quick cup of coffee. We'll be in Spokane 7/13 - 7/18 ...

MMmmmm, I do like chocolate chip banana bread, so that coffee cake is tempting, but I have also been sort of lax lately with my diet, and if that continues, I will regret it. I'll make an exception for the lemon bars I'm making soon.

I am not a fan of banana bread/cakes/etc, but I insist that we remain friends regardless of my lack of taste.

CONGRATS on the continued weight loss, Molls! Fantastic considering your staycation.
