Short Weekend for the List

March 8, 2020 by christine

This weekend went by way too fast thanks to loosing an hour to daylight savings. When will this madness end? Miko has been happy to snuggle this weekend since it was rainy and cold.

I have been swamped at work, our team is short staffed and I’ve been working harder to make up for that while trying to hire more staff. It’s left me feeling burned out at the end of the day and sticking to simple eats like salads, lentil stews, brown rice stir fries, and more salad.

Eats have been much more exciting this weekend, hubby and I stepped out for spicy vegan Thai dishes on Friday night because we were both burned out.

Early Saturday morning I headed to my nephew’s Lacrosse game where it was windy, raining hard, and cold! The weather has been so warm the last week, I went for a lighter jacket with an umbrella and ended up being a little surprised by how much colder it was in the wind.

My sisters, mom, and friend met at Pushkin’s after for lunch where I warmed up with an Oat Milk cappuccino and the Herbivore Delight vegan sandwich which was delicious.

Then we had a fun taco bar family gathering at my sister’s house where we got crazy trying two new vegan taco fillings – pulled BBQ sauteed jackfruit and soy curls simmered in tomato and taco seasoning.

I mixed both on a massive vegan taco salad that did not disappoint and has given me more ideas to work with jackfruit more.

And today it was a fun trip to Grocery Outlet for a little vegan deal hunting.

Ugh, it’s so late already! That makes the Sunday blues more tough, but I hope the list is a positive way to start your week!

    Yes, a very short weekend, indeed… I’m still struggling to catch up!

    Your meals all look so incredible. It’s making me feel lazy since I’ve been resorting to so many convenience foods lately. At least, it’s easier than ever to still get by without doing serious cooking now, thanks to all the vegan products on the mainstream market. Grocery Outlet has been turning up quite a few gems, too. Nice finds!

      Yes, such a dirty trick!

      Thanks and your meals always look amazing! So true on Grocery Outlet, though ours has been picked clean this weekend which was an eerie sight!
