    5,000 Feet Per Mile

    The weather forecast looked a little ominous, scattered rain showers dotting the weather map. We had been getting a fair amount of lightning in the evening, which made me rethink our weekend plans. I didn’t want to miss out on this hike, regardless of the weather. We had been planning to go up to Pine…

    Cranberry-Avocado Salad with Candied Spiced Almonds

    This is the salad recipe that I came across with the Candied Spiced Almonds. It also has homemade dressing. Brent and I enjoyed this salad with a night in as the smoke outside was thick. We didn’t feel like breathing in a bunch of smoke. We made an inside date night instead. Enjoy this salad…

    Candied Spiced Almonds

    I came across a recipe for a salad that had these candied spiced almonds. I made the salad, so I had to make these as well. They turned out tasty and I am excited to have leftovers! They might not last too long. Ingredients: 5 cups sliced almonds 1/2 cup sugar 3 tablespoons butter 2…

    Passage Falls (Brent’s View)

    Once again, another catch up photo-blog post, this time with pictures from our Passage falls hike. It was an easy, relatively flat hike that took us through a forest that was recovering after a fire. Truly a beautiful place. Enjoy! [slideshow]

    I’m playing a bit of catch-up here with some photos, so here are my pictures from Corbly Gulch. It was a beautiful hike that we did in July. Enjoy the pictures! [slideshow]

  • STP Day Two!

    STP Day Two!

    The day started early. I awoke mildly uncomfortably damp in the enclosed atmosphere of the tent, condensation running down the walls. At least I had padding in the form of grass, which meant my rest was more satisfactory than the night previous. I don’t like waking up, especially when uncomfortable. My stubborn desire for sleep…

    Coconut Ginger Chicken

    I know, I know… I’ve been slacking not only on food blogging, but blogging in general. Sorry all. Maybe life will start calming down a bit more. Who knows? Sometimes when I am crazy busy I find myself blogging more. I think the reason I have not been blogging lately is because I was feeling…

  • One Backpacking Trip

    One Backpacking Trip

    A few weekends ago, Brent and I took some friends up to Pine Creek Lake that we had discovered last year. To be honest, I didn’t really want to go because there was a good chance that it was going to rain. Brent and our friends still wanted to go, so I of course went…

    Early Morning Grotto Falls Hike

    We had some company come into town this past weekend. One of which had never been to Bozeman. We decided to get out the door early in the morning on Saturday and head up to our wonderful Hyalite for a quick hike before exploring the town. It was a very chilly morning. So chilly in…

    Raspberry Cookies

    It is time for the Owenhouse company picnic and this time around I got dessert to bring. I decided to try something new like usual. I also wanted something that was summerish. I gave these Raspberry Cookies a try. Love them. It is a perfect mixture of tartness and sweetness. Oh and by no means…

    Passage Falls

    What to do on a Sunday afternoon? A hike of course and we better make sure that it is a new one! That is just what we did this last Sunday afternoon. We got ready and drove over to Paradise Valley to enjoy a nice easy 5 mile hike in the Absarokee Mountain Range. We…

    After a very long morning on Saturday, Brent and I took the chance to try out another new hike. It was just what I needed to get my mind off of the early day. I ended up going into work for several hours in the morning. We were having computer issues and I knew Friday…
