Palm Desert 2018
Mar 1st, 2018 by leigharev2
Road trip to Palm Desert to visit our Uncle Art and Auntie Yaya (Annie)!
I’m not going to lie. Driving to SoCal is not fun. It was a long drive, but we made it!! 
We arrived late, and after a quick visit, it was off to bed. Saturday morning, we went on a six mile hike. Uncle Art stayed behind and picked us up at the end point.
A well earned yummy breakfast….
We enjoyed the pool for the rest of the day, then went to dinner and a movie, ‘5:17 to Paris’.
Sunday, I ran the Palm Desert half marathon. David, Annie, Alex, and Ryan walked the 5K. Actually, Alex walked for the first few minutes, then decided to run the rest!
Dinner was at a wonderful Mexican restaurant at the La Quinta Resort. What an incredible place! Definitely worth a bucket list trip to stay in one of their casitas…

Early Run
Feb 28th, 2018 by leigharev2
I love running early in the morning with friends. We could not catch a good shot, but we came across three coyotes who had cornered a hare. Our disturbance gave the hare enough time to run away. Also, we saw a pheasant in a tree!

They hate it that he never wants to play, but they all get along for the most part…
Coalition for Placer Youth Leadership Strategy Meeting
Feb 28th, 2018 by leigharev2
Coalition for Placer Youth is an organization that the boys and I have been involved in. They held a day long strategy meeting to plan out the next year. I offered to cater their breakfast and lunch.
Breakfast was a breakfast taco bar, with potatoes, scrambled eggs, refried beans, and black beans as the hot ingredients. Toppings: cilantro, scallions, red onion, radish, avocado, pomegranate, cheese, salsa, lime wedges. Fruit was mango with tajin.
Pomegranate arils garnished the sweet potato soup, (along with scallions, and Greek yogurt, if desired). I had two people come up and thank me for placing pomegranate in the soup. They never considered doing it (neither had I before seeing the recipe) and they loved it! This is a photo of my lunch, without the yogurt in the soup or the goat cheese in the salad. Pop and cookies as well.
‘The Office’ Trivia Night
Jan 25th, 2018 by leigharev2
We have a local pizza place (Campelli’s Pizza) that hosts themed trivia nights. One night, they held a trivia night for the TV show, ‘The Office’. Coincidentally, Alex has just finished binge watching the whole series. We would not let this opportunity pass us by and decided on a mom/son date night. We named our little team of two, “The Freezer Cats”.
We ended up getting 17 out of 30 correct. And of that, I might have contributed to two of the answers. We had a terrific night together.
