Ick, how did Monday get here so fast? Thankfully it flew by at work, but only because it was insanely busy. Miko seemed to be as thrilled as I was to climb out of bed this morning. I did get a 9-mile run in Saturday which the weather was just gorgeous for. Too bad getting […]
Coming Up for Air
Happy weekend! I’m so glad it’s finally here and looking forward to a fun family gathering for Easter tomorrow after a horrendous week at work. I know, I complain about work a lot, but with good reason! Things have really picked up in the last few months which is great for the company, but crazy […]
WIAW with Brazil Nut Dressing
Happy Wednesday! Maybe just a little? Things are looking up here with the weekend getting closer, but I’ve been dragging and feeling a bit wiped from a chilly 3-mile run after dinner tonight. It was warmer and calm when I started, but I swear it dropped 20 degrees and the wind picked up by the […]
Stir Fried Tempeh
Another weekend gone, yikes! In the spirit of relaxing Sunday, I stuck with a simple staple dinner that’s fast and easy to prepare – a tempeh stir fry. And I used the miso sauce from this tofu stir fry recipe. With chard, onion, orange bell pepper, and broccoli for the veggies – not a bad […]
Kamut Berry Stew
It’s been so nice to decompress this weekend after such a crazy week. And since it was very windy and rainy most of the day yesterday, it was a great excuse to stay home with the exception of a trip to the gym and grocery shopping. Since there was no way my long run was […]
Roasted Spicy Tempeh & Cauliflower
It’s been a wacky and stressful week to say the least with so much going on at work, rain, keeping up with workouts and half marathon training, and fighting off another bug going around. I’ve been trying to stick to simple, nutrient dense meals to combat this madness, like a loaded kale salad dressed with […]
Thai Tempeh Noodles
We’re only two days into the week and I’m ready for it to end already! Shorthanded at work with tons of projects and problems, tons of rain and wind adding bad hair to my stress, and another cold/flu thing running around that I don’t want to catch – sheesh! I guess I’ve been a little […]
Goats and Curry Stew
Blah, another weekend flew by too fast. But the weather was decent enough to do my long run outdoors which was wonderful even though parts of the trail were a little flooded from all the rain. It’s so much nicer to get outside to see nature and wildlife for long runs than being stuck on […]
Stress Cravings
I’m really enjoying the current issue of VegNews, The Man Issue. Apparently everyone else is too because I finally found it at Whole Foods after stopping at 3 other stores that were out! I need to just get a subscription to VegNews! Lots of great, inspiring quotes in it: And a great article on vegan […]
Raw Soups for Spring
It’s been a week so far! The challenges and stresses are plentiful to say the least, but it seems to be flying by so there’s that. I’m not only getting nagged at work, but at home too! Smokey has been very clingy and curious following us around the house, stomping across keyboards, and trying to […]
