Life is, and had been blissful! In my perspective, all the little things amount to something truly wonderful. Lately I have been feeling energetic and content. I’ve also been in my creative era and have been continuing to cook homemade foods & continuing to work on random projects.
With that being said, let me show you a few things I’ve been up to recently!
1. Cooking!! : I have continued cooking new recipes in my spare time. Though, this month I’ve mainly worked on baking homemade bread (still trying to perfect it & getting better and better), and on making homemade pasta dishes from scratch (I have always wanted to try making homemade pasta)!

Attempting to make spaghetti - will get better w/time :)
2. Crafts!! : With crafts, I am in my blanket era! Which doesn’t quite make sense with it being 90-100 degrees currently here !
I finally gave chunky yarn a chance and was able to make my first chunky blanket in only a few hours!
My pink chunky blanket! :)

3. Adventuring!! : The weather has been extremely hot lately which has made it difficult to be outside during the day. However, that doesn’t prevent me from getting out & adventuring!
Last week my roommate Britta & I took a day trip to Cloudcroft (a place north of us that has cooler temps). There we went on a couple hikes among the trees, explored the town & went to a winery. A very simple day trip packed with wholesomeness!

Winery treat! a.k.a. Britta’s first time @ a winery!
Beautiful wine flight & beautiful scenery!
Biking!! : I had been unable to ride my bike for months due to it having a hole in the back tire. BUT a couple weeks ago my friend Britta and our mutual friend Justin surprised me by fixing it!! It’s been the best surprise! Since then, I’ve been going on multiple early bike rides! I feel like I am flying!
So happy biking! :)
Life can be complicated, but the simplicity of life is what amazes me as well as all the little things sprinkled throughout the day. & for me, I am happy thanks to some of the little things sprinkled throughout my days.
Thanks for reading!
Stay tuned for future updates & adventures!
Love, Sam! 💛
