Sustainable Happiness at Home and Beyond

EEEK! Look what just came in the mail!

It’s the Lebert Equalizer I won in the MizFit giveaway. Can’t wait to get Lucas to set it up!

It’s been a busy 24 hours. When last we left, I was headed to a Slow Food/Sustainable Seafood chat. It was fun! It was packed, which was nice to see:

And I think it was only partly due to the fact that it was held at an organic brewery! Something Lucas certainly enjoyed, as did I:

The chat was all about knowing where your food comes from, and in this case — buying from local fishmongers and fisheries, to prevent over-fishing and to support local workers. The crew from Wild Ocean Seafood Market brought some yummy appetizers, including rock shrimp, white shrimp and brown shrimp:

Nom, nom, goodness. After the chat, we headed home to something else that made my mouth water. Homemade pesto from the massive amounts of thai basil that’s been taking over the garden:

Mmmmm so good! It made a full cup of pesto, so I’ll be putting it on everything … wonder what pesto oats would taste like?

Needed a kickstart this morning, so instead of tea I succumbed to the pull of my favorite friend — caffeine:

Had a busy day at work and came home to some smiling faces:

Okay, off to set up the Lebert!
