Made some really good desserts this week. I think my medium is the 4 ounce jelly jar. #CoastTimeLife

My plan for this year's garden work is full on chaos garden. I am going to just scatter plant everything and see what I get in the back yard. I want to forage for my vegetables. Because why not? #gardening #CoastTimeLife

Got my first ever landslide alert from the county this morning. #orweather #CoastTimeLife

The #CTYankee in me giggles every time I get a county wide alert message... About potential frost. #orweather #CoastTimeLife

I have Perplexed the Pigeons with Nectarines! #birdwatching #CoastTimeLife

In a gesture of unbridled optimism, I brewed an actual pot of tea and laid out the service. #CoastTimeLife #BakersDayOff

A year later I am still getting used to gull calls as being natural, even commonplace, instead of indicating a fast food dumpster. #BreakfastTableBirdwatching #CoastTimeLife

In the face of the person most likely to tell me to work more being told by a doctor he needs surgery to fix a physical problem caused by working too much, I did very little work today. #ProductivityBrainwashing #CoastTimeLife

The cats have been hitting the pawbreaker very hard today and our neighbor just gave us a lava lamp. Further #CoastTimeLife adventures as they happen.

Making stock today while paying bills in order to balance positive and negative associations. #ProductivityBrainwashing #CoastTimeLife

I realized today that when I say I want a vintage Egyptian cotton pompom fringe caftan, what I really mean is I want bedding I can wear in public if I have to leave the house. #CoastTimeLife

How long until "messing with my algorithm" can officially be considered a hobby? #CoastTimeLife

My nails are so stained from pitting cherries I figure today should be a #YardTherapy day, because they can't look dirtier #CoastTimeLife #BakersDayOff #gardening

There are certain breads that need a bit of char, and I am waiting for some Naan and I can smell the char happening and I am thinking oh yesssss. #CoastTimeLife #BakersDayOff

First really nice day out in days, perfect time for my neighbors to burn their trash. #CoastTimeLife #RuralAdjustments

How small is my town? Well, there's a water break nearby and my mayor is helping to track it down and knew exactly who I was when I answered my doorbell. #CoastTimeLife

When I remember my mom, there are certain signature style pieces that immediately come to mind, even decades after her death. I realize that I also have signature style... In my work clothes. Maybe it's time to consider outside of my work wardrobe a bit? #CoastTimeLife #ProductivityBrainwashing #WorkLifeBalance

Lots of activity at the Ridiculous Water Feature and New House Saloon; Stellar's and scrub jays, starlings, goldfinch, collared doves. A few youth in evidence haven't quite figured out eating on their own, just sit by the feeder and scream until a grownup puts food in their mouths. #CoastTimeLife #BreakfastTableBirdwatching

Sometimes it's ok to stay late at work. #AuroraBorealis #CoastTimeLife

Goldfinch happy hour at the Ridiculous Water Feature and New House Saloon #CoastTimeLife #BreakfastTableBirdwatching
