Ginger Miso Vinaigrette 

(from Food52)

• 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons miso paste (I like brown, but use white for a more mild flavor)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
• 1 small clove of garlic, grated
• 4 drops of sriracha sauce (or to taste)
• 3 tablespoons sesame oil

1. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl, and slowly whisk in the sesame oil until well blended.

Sunday walk with momma.

Grace

B has had Grace since she was a puppy.  She's 16 now and more hobbles than walks, and yet she still manages to fold herself up in the funniest ways. 

lunch with Joanna.

My mom is one of my favorite people to spend time with, especially the lunch hour.  Not only does she have a playful spirit and exquisite taste in food, but there is just something about pausing from the busyness of the day and allowing yourself to be refreshed with a friend.  Love you, momma.

cozying.

This past week has been a busy one.  Between getting the house ready for the winter, and prepping for the holidays, we haven't had much down time.  And yet, we still managed to steal a few moments.
