What’s on your list this week?
Danielle Miller says
Those cookies sound fantastic!
Suzan says
We LOVE Durango and have stayed at Durango Mountain Resort many times!
Spend a day doing everything at the resort: alpine slide, bungee trampoline, mini golf, chair lift…
Rafting on the Animas river with Mountain Waters Rafting (durangorafting.com)
Train to Silverton or drive to Silverton and do some shopping
Eat at Steamworks
Drink a Zuberfizz, locally made pure cane sugar soda.
Jamie says
Thanks for all of the great suggestions. I'm excited to eat at Steamworks… their menu sounds delicious. And I will definitely be on the lookout for a Zuberfizz!!
Anonymous says
Tubing on the Animas or throw in a fishing line. Bar D chuckwagon dinner show. I live in CO and Durango I think has the prettiest mountains in the state.
Jamie says
We'll be coming from the desert to those beautiful mountains so I can't wait for that change of scenery!! Thank you for the suggestions. 🙂
Lori says
I live in Colorado and hubby attended college in Durango for a couple years. We love it down there – some of the most beautiful scenery in the state – and given the beauty to be found here, that's saying a lot. Definitely look for hiking trails, plan for some fishing, tubing or rafting the Animas (with the expected run-off you could get some good white water), the Narrow Gauge Railway is a must.. If you've got transportation, drive the Million Dollar Highway. It's a two hour drive without stops, but you'll want to stop along the way, you'll want to explore. If you've got a fear of heights there's a bit of the drive, about six miles out of Ouray where the road is a narrow two lanes without guard rails. If you make Ouray a day trip, you can take in the hot springs and a meal there and soak in the history. It'll be amazing. . .makes me want to plan a trip for us for the summer when it's too hot to be in the city! 😉
Jamie says
By the time we go in July, I will be very ready to escape the Vegas heat. 🙂 Those all sound like great ideas. Thanks for sharing!!
Nat and Holly says
Jamie, thanks for including our Easter Basket! I've never been to Durango but it looks beautiful! Let the countdown to summer begin 🙂
Check out Soaring at Tall Timber Resort. Great place to vacation also. You need to take the Silverton Durango Narrow Guage to get there. Absolutely beautiful. Here's a link for Soaring:
Jamie says
I will definitely check it out. Thank you for sharing!!

We have a few things in common. 1) I love the song Beneath Your Beautiful! 2) Thunderstorms (and the smell of rain) are my most favorite thing! and 3)I'm always picking things up with my toes. However, since I broke my big toe this task has become a little difficult. 🙂

Cat Yates says
I am so coveting that road map shirt! Problem is that I would fall asleep. And I LOVE the lockers. Wouldn't it be fun just to have a big mudroom to be able to decorate like that? Or a cottage on the beach? I'm going with the beach. Thanks for sharing your 5! Have a great weekend!
Kelley says
Am I the only one curious as to the third ingredient on the s'mores plate?
Jamie says
haha Kelley… those are licorice nibs. my daughter's addition to the s'mores competition we were having. i didn't try it, but i didn't hear any complaints from those that did. 😉
Bernadett Rauski says
I love the T-shirt.:D
Amy says
I made my hubby a t-shirt like that for Christmas a couple years ago. 🙂

04 | chicken pesto sandwiches
delicious and sooo easy to make (we’ve had them twice in the last two weeks)
05 | wreck this journal
if you have a tween or teen, this would be a perfect gift for them. my daughter just got this book on tuesday and she has already broken the spine of the book, drawn with glue (the glitter kind, of course), ripped up one page and made a paper airplane with another and… she’s taken it in the shower.
Thanks so much for the shout out on my chalkboard sign ladies! I totally appreciate it!

My husband cracks up at the VW commercial every time! He was a Little League coach with our boys for over 18 years and has seen so many well meaning Dads like that!

I LOVE the toasted coconut too! And the salted caramel. mmmm. We went to Golden Spoon last night, because it is closer, but I have to say that it is a weak substitute.

Just wanted to comment about the candy apples. I recently saw a recipe for these sinfully decadant candy apples and I said to my kiddos, "Oooooh, let's make these." They all looked at me like I was crazy. I couldn't believe it. What's not to love? Apples, caramel, chocolate, smoked sea salt. Anyway…I decided candy/caramel apples must be one of those things that are a novelty (i.e. Cracker Jack, Red Vines, Necco Wafers, etc…)I still love them.

Erin says
Oh my goodness I didn't know Emily Giffin came out with a new book! I will definitely be heading to the bookstore this weekend to pick it up! I love her!
Katie says
Gahh… I'm dieing to read Emily's new book! on a side note I haven't been camping in forever… miss it!
The Thompson Family says
We are in love with beach camping here in So Cal. It is a different experience and more like a tropical vaca than Camping.
Andy says
my husband just bought that tent for 15 dollars. it is awesome
Emily says
We loved the idea of the instant tent, but returned it after setting it up. The bottom at the closure does not close very securely, which does not work well for a little girl who is scared to death of flies, let alone any creepy crawlies that could get in from the opening. :/
RoseMarie says
We have that tent and everyone around us on the campground couldn't believe how quickly we got it up!
{april kennedy} says
Emily Giffin is my FAVORITE author. Didn't know she had a new book out. Going to get it today to read when the kids go back to school!!

Shaela says
I ordered the ebook of Heaven is Here the day it came out (I was in the hospital still from having my baby!) and read it super quick. LOVED it!! So inspiring. But you're right about the tissues, hahaha. 🙂

I love those washi tapes. They're quite expensive though.
