The food was delicious, the venue was perfect, the auction was lively, and the crowd was diverse – what’s better it was all for good cause. All proceeds support the […]
A part of the Family!
So proud to be a part of the family! I’ve been self-employed, out and about in the community; sharing my passion for food and health for the past six years.

Saturday at Sauvie’s Island
My summer adventures continued with the scent of lavender, wheat fields, beautiful flowers, wildlife, bridges, bodies of water some vast, some not and mountain tops.
