A Superhuman Breakfast referral brought me to my next adventure... In eating... For many of you, the combination of me + food + adventure wouldn't be a big surprise. But, if you don't know me, let me say this: I LOVE FOOD Not just "any" food. I like GOOD food. Talented chef-prepared, palate-pleasing, art on a plate food. I'll try almost anything (ALMOST...don't ask me to eat a pickle...It won't happen...childhood pickle trauma lives on). Foie Gras? I'm in. Marrow? I'm IN! Duck? MORE PLEASE!! Geoduck and Gooseneck barnacles? Yep, where's the fork and the napkins? 7 course dinner? No problem. 14 course dinner? I've done them in the US and Europe. I eat food. I take pictures of food. I LOVE FOOD The more color, complex flavor, and interesting texture play the better in my world of "what's cooking?"
Once a year my mom comes to visit me which helped with #Adventure52 - Me + Mom + Semiahmoo Resort. Mom's visits are always awesome! Just me....mom...and ALWAYS an adventure! Last year it was Orcas Island. This year, it was Semiahmoo Resort in Blaine, WA. I'd visited in the Spring and when I described the views, the water, the rock-filled beach, and the SPA to my mom she was SOLD.
Adventure Stop 1: Bow-Edison and Scenic Chuckanut Drive
Brunch at Tweets in Bow-Edison. I unexpectedly found this adorable street of food and shopping while trying to get a closer look at a bison farm (I never got that). BUT, the Edison "board walk" was a more than suitable bison substitute and I couldn't wait to show mom around.

Adventure No. 1
Life transitions make you do a lot of “thinking" about what's next so I've given myself an assignment: create a lifestyle that is fun and adventures and makes you feel comfortable and mindful. Changing, and defining what you want things to change INTO can be scary.
It's also completely freeing and empowering. I get to take control of my "new" life design. Listen to my inner guidance about what things fit and where.
I get to be in charge of saving mySELF.
I don't know what comes next but I'm a BIG fan of CREATING things. So, I decided I should just start integrating my "assignment" into my life and throw in some moments of fear and uncertainty to ensure I grow and overcome along the way. Sometimes our greatest comfort evolves from something we feared into discomfort.
So how am I going to do this? One word.
