The Week in Photos {It's Fall, Ya'll!}

Pin It Now!

Happy Fall, Ya'll!!  While it's still too warm for scarves & boots (boo) here in Southern California, it is definitely fall.  Officially.  I've always been obsessed with all things autumn, and this week we visited a couple of north county pumpkin patches that are just too cute not to share with you.

The Week in Photos hasn't happened in quite some time because, well, there really haven't been a ton of exciting photos to share with you.  So until your next dose of deliciousness (there's some good stuff coming up soon, folks!) here are a few photos for you to enjoy.

And to all you lucky peeps who are experiencing crisp weather and crunchy red leaves, go stomp in a pile of leaves for me, will ya??  Come back and tell me all about it so I can live vicariously through you.  :)


beautiful storm clouds

Buddies.

Is it me or does it look like the chicken is thinking "What a show off."  ??

They mean business.  We got scolded for petting a very friendly horse.  Whoops.

I love the contrast between the pumpkins and the corn stalks!



Did I mention I am completely smitten with white pumpkins???

Serene.

*With the exception of the first pic and the last pic, which were edited in Instagram, all photos are completely unedited.  Yes, the pumpkins really were that bright orange!  Amazing!

Pin It Now! Howdy!  Hope you're having a wonderful weekend and enjoying some sunshine like we are.  It has been more like summer than spring here lately.

This week flew by, didn't it?  In case you missed it, Montalvo Country was featured onFoodGawker this week!  Check it out here.  Exciting, right??

Here are the week's photos for you to enjoy.  Yesterday Hubby and I spent the afternoon up in the country picking strawberries and bothering cattle.  It was fantastic and I wanted to stay on the farm forever.  I'm definitely a country girl at heart.  Farming is good for the soul. :)

Stunning, peaceful

Anniversary/Lucky Number :)

New favorite toy - paint roller??

Amazing cloud!

That's one fine farmer!!

Pin It Now! Happy Mother's Day!  What are you doing to celebrate the moms in your life?

My sweet momma lives out of state so I won't get to celebrate her until she comes to visit in a few weeks, but I'll definitely be thinking about her all day and thinking about how lucky I am to be her daughter.

Have a lovely Mother's Day and remember to spoil your mom! :)

The Week in Photos {Fair Week}

Pin It Now! Happy May Day!  I'll be honest, I'm not even really sure what that means.  But in any case, happy May!

As usual, time is getting away from me.  I have a stack of recipe ideas I've been wanting to test out forever, and somehow still haven't gotten around to them.  For not being a very busy person, I've sure been too busy to get in the kitchen as much as I'd like.

Hubby and I got to be kids this weekend and go to the fair.  I don't go on the scary rides - you know the ferris wheel and the like.  I'm a weenie like that.  I have no problem with inhaling a giant funnel cake, however.

Have a fab week!

Beautiful sunset over the park

Yes, the light was really this amazing!

No casts??  

The Week In Photos {Earth Day Week}

Pin It Now! Happy Earth Day week!  Did you and your loved ones do anything fun for Earth Day this past weekend?  I'll admit I could certainly work on my green-ness.  Someday when we have more of a yard than a tiled deck, I dream of having a beautiful garden full of herbs and veggies.  For now the best I can do is make it a point to buy local produce.

What do you do in the name of being green?

Sorry to sound like Kermit.

Here are the week's photos for you!  How appropriate that there are so many flower photos this week... enjoy!

Picnic lunch date with my love... in the very spot where he proposed :)

Absolutely dreamy rose on our walkway

EEEE!!  Can't wait to bust out some of Ree's recipes!

And of course, a pic of my sweet boy :)
