Portland, Oregon

-Gossip

I visited Portland, Oregon for 2 weeks. It was my first trip all on my own and it turned out to be more amazing than I had ever anticipated. I grew so much in 2 weeks.

I took Amtrak to Portland from Chicago because I hadn't been past Iowa and really wanted to see the landscape along the way. I was not disappointed!

Waiting in line at Voodoo Doughnuts. The bricks were painted with glitter...what a dream.

LETS GO Chicago Harvest

Last Wednesday I joined LETS GO Chicago in harvesting vegetables for their CSA in Rogers Park. It was a lovely day.

They had a bunch of gigantic sunflowers in the garden that they had not intentionally planted but that had volunteered.

I harvested cherry tomatoes. It's not summer if I don't harvest some tomatoes! I love the smell, and the green hands that come with it.

A cosmo.

And this is Little Love. She is very...um...unique...but she really is a darling just like her name implies.
