Well here we are at Sunday again and me whining about not being ready for the weekend to end. What else is new? But it was a wonderfully fun and long weekend celebrating my mom’s birthday all day Saturday with lots of shopping, dining out, and me almost adopting another chihuahua at a rescued animal […]
Getting My Geek On
Happy Friday! Finally! I’m looking forward to fun and relaxing this weekend celebrating two family birthdays and making some great raw eats. Last night I went lazy and simple for dinner after another long and exhausting day at work whipping up one of my favorite raw soups in the Vita-Mix, Gena’s Red Pepper and Hemp […]
Protein Quinoa & Hempy Cheesy Sauce
Wasn’t the moon this morning gorgeous? Even though I was running slightly late for work, I still had to step out in the backyard in the cold and dark to try and snap it with my macro lens and got some okay shots. But my night time photography skills still need a lot of work. […]
Spicy Curry Tempeh Skillet
Sometimes I like dish with a lot of spice and kick, one with a savory punch that burns a little. Especially while kicking a cold and looking for something to loosen things up and wake up my senses. This recipe is exactly that, it has plenty of spicy, curry kick. Typically I don’t use canned […]
Chill Weekend
I can’t believe it’s Sunday night already, do I really have to go to work tomorrow? My relaxing weekend flew by too fast as usual, I could use some more down time since I’m still recovering from this cold. I ventured out for a run this morning planning a 6-miler to taper down from last […]
Simple Squash Saute
Happy Friday! And it seemed to take forever to get here, didn’t it? I only had a cold for 3 days of this week, but it felt like an eternity. A running nose and throbbing head pain makes long days seem many times longer. The most frustrating part of having a cold was not being […]
Sniffling & Surviving
First of all, cheers! Have a glass of wine with me for making it through this much of the week! After the last two days, that’s something to celebrate for me! Work is still nuts, more long days of doing way too much at once with new project after new project. I’m thankful we’re so […]
Finished Another Half!
Woohoo, I not only survived my half-marathon, but PR’d! Okay, it was only by 2 minutes from my last half marathon, but I’ll take it after the last few months! I wasn’t thrilled getting up at 5 AM this morning and heading out in the cold and dark, but I’m so glad I did. And […]
Getting Through It
The last few days at work have been an insane blur, 12-hours of doing way too much at once scrambling to meet project deadlines. It’s been interesting packing breakfast, lunch, and dinner which have been smoothies, salads, Trader Joe’s frozen vegan meals, and vegan snack bars. Not terribly exciting, but functional, healthy, and way better […]
Squash Chips
Ugh, is it Friday yet? I am burned out from this week already, work has been so busy with overtime and not a moment to even catch my breath. And it’s going to get worse over the next 3 days as we approach a huge deadline this weekend, most likely 12 hour days which I’m […]
