Sunday Parkways + Handmade Gifts
Bellies full from a breakfast of granola pancakes topped with a fresh citrus sauce {thanks Jason}, we cycled over to Sunday Parkways and spent the afternoon biking the car-free streets, hitting food carts and picnicking in the parks this Mother’s Day. With clear skies and temps in the 80s it felt like one big block party.
