I’m here and playing catchup after a fun, long holiday weekend of food, family and projects. We did get our tree up which I love, but thinking about adding our bubble lights because I’m obsessed with them even though they are not exactly eco-friendly compared to our new changing LED lights. Thanksgiving was great and […]
Vegan Ribs for the List
Fall is a gorgeous season here, I could never get tired of looking at these trees. And enjoying hearty stews and one pot dishes in colder temps, such as a potato and black bean stew, spinach-heavy tofu stir fry, and another simple potato and kidney bean stew this week. There has also been vegan mac […]
Vegan Eats in Las Vegas for the List
Whew, we just got in from a long weekend in Las Vegas for a little getaway to catch some shows including Tina Fey & Amy Poehler’s Restless Leg Tour and for great vegan eats. The first night there we made it to Crossroads Kitchen and what a great experience that was. It’s not cheap, but […]

Getting to a Better Place for the List

Turbulent Week for the List
It’s has been a rollercoaster of a week recovering from the ablation procedure, fearing the procedure was not a success, and dealing with medication adjustments that I will be stuck with for the next 3 months hoping things settle down and I won’t need to go through the procedure again.

Week of Resting for the List
It has been a week recovering from a procedure I have been hoping to not need for a long time, but ended up having it. A few years ago I started having challenges sometimes while running, episodes of racing heartbeats and struggling to catch my breath would start shortly after starting a run and end […]

Fall is officially here and it even feels like it a bit with cooler temps and a breeze this weekend. It has been a chaotic week for me being busy at work and with life, so there has been some convenience eats. Ron sweetly got Thai takeout Monday night. I went to Zest Kitchen again […]
