We had a pretty relaxing, and very low key Memorial Day weekend. We attended Ana Yrazabal’s baptism, and enjoyed great food & conversation at the “after-party”. It had been a long time since I’d been in a church, and honestly, nothing had changed. I was still really tired and wanted to fall asleep, just as [...]

It is 91 degrees here in Portland as I write this at 6:00 on a Friday night. Last night as I was staring at my overgrown mint plant I thought about how good a mojito would taste. I knew it would be hot out and is there a more refreshing drink on a [...]
