We took an impromptu trip to Bend last week to enjoy summer before it’s gone.   It’s one of our favorite places for a quick getaway and one of the few places we can truly relax.  My husband would love to move there one day and spend all his time paddle boarding and hiking.  We spend so much time plugged in and connected to our phones and the internet, it’s nice to have some time when you disconnect from things for a short time and focus on spending uninterrupted time with family.  We went on hikes, played games, and saw a movie, all the things that we don’t make the time for on a regular basis.

It makes me realize that even when we spend time together we don’t really interact with each other much.  We are going to take more opportunities to put all our devices on do not disturb and do something old-fashioned, like actually speak to each other.

Sitting around the table and having breakfast as a family is something else that doesn’t happen very often but we’ve been playing around with smoothie bowls.  They are still quick to put together but are a little more substantial and force you to sit down and enjoy the process of a meal.  I toasted up a quick oat crumble to sprinkle on top but if you don’t want to take the time you can substitute with your favorite granola or more chopped nuts.  I recommend cooking the crumble the night before so you can put everything together in less than 10 minutes in the morning.  Hemp, pumpkin or sesame seeds would also be great on top.  If you aren’t into peaches and figs, blackberries and bananas would also be delicious.

        Thank you! I just wish we still had fresh figs this time of year. Time to come up with a new flavor combination!

      Absolutely beautiful! Love figs. My husband grows those exact figs in our yard but unfortunately our trees died a few years ago and we are anxiously awaiting there return, so I’m bookmarking this for the near future
