Keep reading, I'll wrap this all up with a GIVEAWAY! Last month, I had the pleasure of joining Rafe Kelly and a group of amazing people for Return to the Source, an adventure in the Pacific Northwest that had us sleeping under the stars, jumping off cliffs, climbing trees, and getting in touch with what it [...]
Since moving to the Pacific Northwest, we've had the opportunity to pick and enjoy some of the best berries I've ever had, right in our own neighborhood and sometimes, right outside our door. Blackberries are especially prevalent right now, and we've truly enjoyed the abundance. The bounty of berries has been my inspiration for all kinds [...]
