Five Little Things
Five Little Things I loved the week of February 21, 2026: the beautiful desert, time with children, Olympic frenzy, and more!
This week I’ve been on the road on-and-off, and I’m currently writing this from the car! So I’ll keep things short and sweet. I hope you’ve been well!
Here are Five Little Things I loved this week:
1. Desert Beauty
Every February, we spend some time in Arizona, supporting our son in his athletic pursuits. This particular visit, we had a little extra time to enjoy some of the beautiful sunshine, and the beauty of the desert was really strong during this trip. It was a a nice break before returning to the torrential rains in California.
2. Dessert Beauty
The homophone dessert was also so wonderful this week! I shared two new recipes recently: Ube Crinkle Cookies and Coconut Chocolate Pudding – have you checked them out yet? I also sent a care package of simple Cream Cheese Chocolate Chip Cookies to my daughter and brought cookie dough to bake in Arizona for my son! It was a sweet week!
3. Time with Our Children
Back to back weekends with each of our kids – what a treat! We’re now on our way to visit our daughter and watch her very special performance! Any time we can watch her sing is a joy.
4. Olympic Frenzy
Have you been enjoying the Milano-Cortina olympics? I’ve been trying to keep up as much as possible — and loving it! The hard part is avoiding social media spoilers!
5. Kitchen Olympics
Speaking of the Olympics and social media, I get a good chuckle from creators who are having fun with it!
Stay joyful!
