In the calendar of yogurt-granola mix-ins, squarely in one of my favorites: rhubarb compote. This latest batch extra ruby in color. #rhubarb #homecooking #eatinglocal #farmersrock #springtime

Each year's harvest is small and fleeting, but I sure do love these sweet little blooms while they last. #springtime

Finally made it to Los Hernandez in Union Gap, just south of Yakima. In prime asparagus season for that signature tamale, no less. And a chance to swing by @greenbowfarm farm store, first time going to the source after years of purchasing from them at the farmers market. All on the way home from Prosser where I did an interview for my next @historylink project. Last time I was that side of the mountains it was end of hop harvest, just before turning in my essay on history of hop farming in the state. #lifeinthenorthwest #farmersrock #culinarylegacy #washingtonwine #history #hops #agriculture #writinglife

I realize the tones aren't all quite accurate but it was a ROYGBIV kind of walk this morning. Grateful for all my neighbors' colorful gardens. #walking #color #keepmoving #happyfriday

In almost 10 years of taking pictures of the #loverock, this is the first variance in message that I have seen. It's actually one of the top typos I make, live/love. It'll be interesting to see what it has to say next time....back to love? #westseattle #lincolnparkseattle #walking #live #love
