It’s been a while since I’ve posted a Photo Fun Day Friday. It’s not that there was a lack of photos to share, I actually have taken so many photos since moving here to California. I just keep forgetting to put some together to share. Life has been pretty great here so far, I still kinda cannot believe this is where I live. It feels like perpetual vacation. I love it. I still hope to get some photos of the house posted to share with you guys, just have to wrap up some of the details leftover from moving in. It’s really feeling like home though.
So hopefully I am back at the Friday posts happening regularly and hopefully you guys enjoy!
Our fig tree is starting to do it’s thing and the tiniest little baby figs are starting to sprout and form. I cannot wait.
Looks like living in California only one month has already started to affect my work. This is a quick sketch for a project we are working on.
Almond flour waffle for one. Pretty excited with this recipe. Look for it on the blog this week!
Not the best photo, but the Vegi Bowl from Hole Mole might be my new obsession. I am not one for most fast food/take out places but this place has tons of gluten-free/vegan options. This bowl is loaded with fajita-stlye veggies, rice (I go super light with rice), beans and then I skip on cheese and add guacamole. Only $3.99! What?
Prepping and packaging some greeting cards last week for an event we did in Ventura.
Look at these two. Jpeg and Seri.
Gotten quite into running since moving here. Treated myself to a new pair of running shoes and it has made a huge difference already.
Working on taking my handstand away from the wall. I can hold it without the support of the wall, but I am still too fearful to pike or kick up without knowing the wall is behind me. Someday.
A recipe I have been playing with for gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free coconut macaroons. Don’t worry I will be sharing the recipe soon!
Made a big pot of classic Greek avgolemono soup on Easter Sunday to remind me of my family. First holiday away.
A snail friend I came across on my run the other day.
My little baby, Seri, cuddling in the morning.
Zucchini pasta. My favorite lunch lately.
Every morning and every evening at Sunset there is a donation-based yoga class on the bluffs here in Long Beach. Amazing views and so serene.
Us at Disneyland.
Small World at Disneyland. My favorite.
Disneyland.
Simmered fresh pink grapefruit and rosemary for an all-natural room freshener. Smelled amazing.
If you eat peanut butter (or any nut or seed butter for that matter) in this house, this face will ALWAYS be in yours.
Yesterday’s delicious post run juice. Orange, ginger, apple, celery, green bell pepper and strawberries. So good.
New Ganeshsa shirt. Love it.
The first fruit from our trees here at the new house. Loquats. First time trying them, they are amazing.

Wow, so much goodness in one post! Love the CA inspired design and donation-based yoga on the beach. And kudos on the handstand!

Thanks so much Shirley. Hope you are well.
Yes!! I have missed your photo posts. My favorite. Looks like you are really living the life out there. Congrats on the move.
PS I LOVE that ganesha shirt.
Aww thanks so much Jessika and thanks for reading! We are for sure enjoying life here. Thanks I am pretty excited on the shirt too 😉
So many beautiful photos. I especially love the ones of Disney, i hope to get there one day. Thanks for sharing. I’ll be on the lookout for that waffle recipe.
Thanks for sharing. I have been missing these posts. I cannot wait for the coconut macaroons recipe. Nom!
Thanks Nikki! Look for that recipe this week or next.
Those waffles look fantastic! Cute handstand.
Thanks and thanks Amy Jo 😉
How can you Not share the peanut butter with that adorable face…so cute!
Moving out to CA looks like it is incredible. First of all, I am a Disney freak, I love everything about it, and Hubby and I go to Disney World several times per year. He also wants to branch out and hit Disney Land this year. It must be amazing to be so close!! Also, the weather looks gorgeous, and it seems like you are getting such awesome local produce!
All the food you have been making/eating lately has been like exactly what I have wanted to be eating. We are totally on the same page right now about reduced sugar and simple, delicious meals. I can’t wait to see the coconut macaroon recipe, those look awesome!!
Thanks it really has been amazing. Yeh the year-round produce literally blows my mind, still. I don’t think I will ever not be amazed by the fact that I can walk to a farmers market a couple times a week, all year.
Let us know if you plan to go to Disney, the park is literally 15 miles from our house. We could meet up for dinner or have you here and we could cook together, etc.
Making those macaroons again tonight, hope to have them up very soon. Thanks so much!
Living overseas but growing up in long beach makes me a very happy girl when seeing your photos 🙂 especially with mentions of hole molem and second street. Ohhhh yeah. Have you tried taqueria on 4th? A must do. Or taco surf on 2nd street? One dollar happy hour tacos on corn tortillas. Yes please.
