Sunny Saturday

After a VERY STRESSFUL week with paperwork not going our way with our new house, (we're closing a week later than expected), Joel and I had a weekend with little to do!  We were expecting to have the keys to our new house in Sonoma, but alas, it did not work out.  So we were in true "Sonoman" fashion and had a green weekend!  We started our Saturday out by attending the farmer's market and getting some produce for dinner and beautiful strawberries for dessert.  We then headed to the gym and had a great workout (as great as you can have 6.75 months pregnant).

We planted tomatoes, onion, peppers and ghourds, with seeds coming from the amazing Seed Bank in Petaluma.

Spent some time with Jessie who had a horrible (and pricey) bout of sickness.

...and enjoyed my favorite cocktail (mocktail for me) with Meyer Lemons.  We bought them at the F.M. but this is our first Meyer Lemon from our tree!  Keep growing!

My favorite cocktail:

1 oz. fresh meyer lemon juice

1 oz. simple syrup

2 oz. vodka

soda water

ice

***mix the first 3 ingredients in a shaker and pour over ice.  Add soda water as desired.  If you feel like getting fancier, add a little thyme or basil to the simple syrup when on the stove.
