Texas Hill Country at it's best

David and I both decided that traveling during the off season is the best!  Yes, camping might be a bit cold, but having an entire campground all for yourself is priceless!

Peek-a-Boo!

She definitely wont get lost in this grass.

Our little camper is becoming quite the hiker.

Texas Shuttle

I have to admit something.  I've lived in and out of Texas for the last 14 years and I have never visited the Houston Space Centre.  But then, I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one out there!

Chickpea for Me

I love the New Year.  New beginnings.  New resolutions, and hopefully back to my pre-pregnancy weight.  I've been really watching my calorie intake and trying to move as much as possible. Healthy snacks are essential, so I browsed through my favorite site, Pinterest and found some ideas.  Roasted chickpeas is one of them and I decided to make them today!  They turned out delicious! 

Super Easy Chickpea Snack Recipe

1 can of chickpeas  (drained and rinsed)

Season with salt, pepper, cumin, coriander...pretty much any seasoning that you love! 

1 Tbsp of oil

Mix ingredients together in a bowl,  spread on a cookie sheet and roast in oven for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Enjoy! 

Gosh!  It's been busy these last few months!   I finally picked up my brush and started working on children's illustrations to sell at Thread and on Etsy.  I'm hoping I can get back to blogging and painting on a daily basis while Amelia takes her nap.  Naps are getting shorter and shorter each day, so no time for moi!
