I love wearing cotton pajamas — all the time, but mainly in the summer. And these white, crisp, comfortable, and beautiful Natori pajamas are my new favorite. Colette Short PJs.

 

Lightweight, soft and breathable cotton silk voile

Beautiful lace appliqué.

Flat front elastic waistband

Scoop back.

Summery, light and easy.

Favorite part!

Better than roller rabbit pajamas 🙂

When I got married 17 years ago, I gave all my bridesmaids white cotton Natori pajamas. Ever since then, I have been dying for a new pair of white cotton pajamas, so these are not only nostalgic for me, but fit the bill for what I love wearing in pajamas!

Raspberry Crisp

Josie Girl 6 Comments

This summer, we have gone to lots of local Oregon farms to pick our own fruit. The best trip was to the raspberry farm, when we came home with 9 pounds.  I wanted to make a raspberry crisp but couldn’t find a recipe anywhere, so I improvised and made my own! It was so good that I made not one, not two, but THREE!  This recipe is low sugar, tart, but oh-so-good.

 

First, you pick.

 

Toosh is officially my picking partner and could stay all day picking the fruit. She never wants to leave when we decide we are done.

Blueberry Hazelnut Crisp

With a flat of blueberries in our house from our local CSA, I went on a hunt to find the best blueberry pie recipe. That said, searching “best blueberry pie” on the internet does not necessarily lead to the best blueberry pie, especially when I add words such as “low sugar” or “healthy.” So instead, I went the old fashioned route and asked a friend for a recipe. Needless to say, this much more experienced baker (read ‘older’) instantly emailed me her go-to-blueberry crisp recipe. So I made it (but of course, with some minor adjustments) and IT IS SO DELICIOUS.

 

The result.
