A busy day

I went for a hike along the Oregon coast yesterday.  It was sunny and felt like spring.  Unfortunately, our continued sunny weather has put Oregon into drought conditions, and there are wildfires burning along the coast.  I got this one good shot before there was too much haze from the smoke for good pictures. 


I met a lady as I was taking this picture who thought I was very cute and appeared well-traveled.  She seemed very smart to me!

After hiking and cleaning up a bit I met up with my friend monkey for some crepes and sangria. Yum!

Monkey had the sangria ready when I arrived. 


But there was work to do.  Monkey thought she would have a banana and Nutella crepe, but I thought chicken and mushrooms would be better.   First thing - sauté the mushrooms. 


And make the crepes

And finally get some of that sangria!   The glasses were a bit big for two little animals.  We had to work to get it.  


Monkey and I also met a new little bear at the party and we all enjoyed some chocolate for dessert.  


What good food!

  2. Good to know that you two can help me out with extra chocolate I have around the house. I made a recipe with honey today but the honey was crystallized. Does that ever happen at your house?

    1. Yes, that does happen sometimes. You just have to put the jar in a pan of warm water on the stove, and eventually the honey get's clear and gooey again.

    1. Great, thanks for keeping an eye out. We have a couple of bears similar in style to you, Jerry and Ben. We are always on the lookout for new clothes for the bearistas. Sadly, I only find stuff on ebay, usually beary expensive.

  5. Looks awesome. I can't cook, so that part looked like a magic trick to me. A delicious, delicious magic trick. So sad about the fires. Your picture is really beautiful, though. I haven't been to Oregon in years and years, but I remember thinking it was a super pretty place. And mmm... sangria.
