Figs and Flights {videos} launch every Tuesday. Typically we talk about travel - the funny, the scary, and expensive mistakes, our best tips for traveling often, selecting experiences, and sharing the duties of travel planning. Since we've been quarantined for 2 months and unable to travel Figs and Flights {at home} is the detour in the meantime. See our 1948 house in Seattle, how we've renovated and updated it, and how we balance our travels and home life. We've video toured the kitchen and the living & dining rooms. Today we're covering the bathroom & bedrooms and next week we'll finish up with the yard & green room. Hop over to YouTube to watch the videos and [subscribe] to show your support! Last week I didn't post any regular blog content (neither a Tuesday video nor a Friday blog post per usual) in support of #blackouttuesday, Black Lives Matter, and justice for George Floyd. Join me for a walk through the bedrooms and bathroom of our Seattle house which was built in 1948. The bathroom was the UGLIEST I'd ever seen, it's come such a long way. Explore the pros (charm!) and cons (small closets) of a post-war home with me. See where we keep our suitcases and travel sized items for ease of use and packing. If you'd rather see all of the before and after photos of the bathroom & bedrooms, please do!

What more can we say or read about Covid-19, staying at home, and how our lives have changed? I've never eaten or cooked at home so much in my entire life. While it's not easy to find chickpeas in grocery stores these days I eventually did. This recipe patiently waited until that lucky day and it was worth the wait! The next time you can get your hands on 30 ounces of chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans) you've got to make these sweet potato & chickpea bowls. For more recipes like this one check out the recipes page. This recipe is perfect! It's got warm and cool ingredients, smooth, soft, and crunchy textures, and it's super nourishing. It requires only ONE cooking step, roasting the seasoned sweet potatoes and chickpeas in the oven, and you're done. These sweet potato & chickpea bowls make a great lunch or an outdoor dinner for a warm day. You could even set up an assembly line of the toppings and let your hungry friends and family build their own bowls. I found the recipe in Bon Appetit Magazine's March 2020 edition and made a few modifications of my own.  Sweet Potato & Chickpea Bowls {Recipe}Figs and Flights {videos} launch every Tuesday.

Join me for a walk through the best rooms in our charming house built in 1948. I love the living and dining rooms most for their charm via hardwood floors and arched doorways. The amount of SUNLIGHT in these rooms is amazing thanks to corner windows, picture windows, and sliding glass doors. Here in Seattle it's especially important to let the SUNSHINE into your home and life when we can!  Welcome back to Figs and Flights {at home}. This post covers the living & dining rooms of our 1948 house in Seattle. We bought the house in 2014 and have renovated and updated it along the way. Last week I covered the kitchen and the phone nook. Next Friday we'll get into the bathroom & bedrooms.  Would this living room say POTENTIAL or UGLY to you? (Both?)
