We survived another Monday here and I’m already counting down until another relaxing weekend! Every day is a relaxing day for our pets, except when they’re fighting over who gets hubby’s lap. And hubby and I may have fought over who gets to use these beauties first. Thanks to Averie @ Averie Cooks and Big […]
Wasabi Sweet Potato Fries
Awhile back I splurged on a pricy item at Whole Foods, actual wasabi powder and it wasn’t cheap! Since the real stuff is expensive to produce, most of the wasabi in the US is actually a blend of horseradish and mustard. That’s not a bad thing, but I wanted to see if the real stuff […]
Shoe Shopping Frustration
Finding good shoes has always been a challenge for with with large, angular feet. Finding vegan-friendly shoes has added challenge to that! Last night my mom and I headed to the mall on a mission to update my spring/summer work shoes which is not easy considering they have to be closed toed and not insanely […]
Another Cheesy Hemp Sauce
Friday is getting closer thankfully! It’s been a long week for me already, I haven’t slept well for the last 3 nights for one reason or another – allergies, stress, and this little guy having allergies apparently. He woke me up twice last night having a wheezing sniffling attack at 1 and 3 AM. And […]
New Wallet & Marinara Stew
I’ve been meaning to replace my old wallet for awhile now. It’s old, not vegan since I got it as a gift in my non-vegan days, and is bulky and heavy. I browsed many options on Etsy, but did not find anything that grabbed me. Then I came across Haiku branded bags and purses on […]
Blueberry Hemp Dressing
Blech, Sunday night already and a bittersweet one heading into a busy week at work. I’ve been in a bit of a fog this weekend dealing with sinus pressure and headaches, a rare annoyance for me, so it’s been nice to sleep in and relax a little bit at home. Yesterday I had a snack […]
Splurging After A Crazy Week
I have a confession to make – we went out to eat not once, but twice yesterday! I know, yikes on the spending! But, it’s actually in my dining out budget and it was heavenly to enjoy some fabulous eats after a horribly long week! Our eating out bender started when I met hubby at […]
Quick Curried Lentils
There’s been a lot of relaxing going on this week with cats and dogs lounging all over the house. Life’s good when there’s a warm lap and there’s something so pleasant about coming home to these happy little buddies.. But relaxing hasn’t come easy for me this week, I think I’m still hyped from the […]
OXO LockTop Giveaway
I use a lot of food containers every day. Since going vegan, I pack a lot more food with me for work, traveling, parties, etc. And they’re great for storing and utilizing leftovers. A good container for me not only seals air tight to preserve freshness and prevent leaky messes, it’s also freezer safe for […]
Getting Back to Normal
After a long day at work, it was nice to get home and relax with these guys. Not sure Miko was ready to relax, he sat eagerly in my lap determined to not let me catch up on my Words With Friends games. Maybe he’s right, having 15 active games is a bit much. A […]
