Since I’m tired of whining about work, let’s just say it was another insane day with too much going on and not enough bodies. This isn’t gonna be an easy week, things aren’t lightening up anytime soon. When I know I’m gonna be under a lot of stress, I like to eat especially well since […]
Quick Tofu Stir Fry
What a day, an insanely busy Monday at work! There was so much going on that I was torn in multiple directions most of the day. Nice to come home to our personal greeting committee. But after such a day, I wasn’t feeling putting a lot of effort into dinner. I dug a small tofu […]
Day At Home
Today I didn’t leave the house at all, except for a long dog walk, and it was wonderful. Yesterday was a busy day with my grandma. Last week she turned 93, so I spent most of the day with her to celebrate taking her to lunch then shopping. She gave up driving years ago, so […]
Hemp Seed Alfredo
I just can’t get away from smoothies for breakfast, I’m addicted! They’re simple, nutrient dense and fast, perfect for my rushed work mornings. I keep thinking oatmeal, cereal, or something different would be nice on weekends to mix things up, but always end up going with a comforting, veggie packed smoothie. So I’ve been trying […]
Stocking Up
Using my lunch break for a little fun shopping is becoming a tradition on Fridays and not that long ago, fun shopping meant clothes shopping. Today however, I was anxious to check out a new store that opened this week – Sprouts Farmer’s Market. When I first moved to this area in 2006, the only […]
Impromptu Dinner Party
First, let me just apologize for the horrible pictures in this post. All I had on hand was my dinky point-and-shoot and all its weak digital macro glory. I tried to salvage the images in Paint.NET and it was a painful reminder that I’m so spoiled by the digital SLR. Today was special because one […]
Back to Fresh
After a few days of rich, cooked vegan dinners, I’m happy to get back to high raw and was craving plenty of fresh veggies for dinner. Good thing since I have a fridge full on them from having dinner out twice this week. And I had plenty of time to create a monster salad in […]
Super Sprouts & Lettuce Wraps
I’m still trying my tray sprouter that I found in my pantry after burying it there months ago. I got it as a gift and had mixed results sprouting small seeds in it. But I decided to give it another go with larger sprouts and have been having lots of luck as long as I […]
It’s over …
Monday that is and finally! It felt like one of those days I just should have stayed in bed. For some reason I woke up very tired even after getting enough sleep, maybe kicking out the last of this cold? Then I was running a little late this morning and got a work call while […]
Relaxing, Shopping & Dining
Sunday mornings are great for me, I usually wake up semi-early, drink too much coffee and lounge around reading the paper with Leela while hubby sleeps in. Just laid back quiet time with a chihuahua hamming it up for attention. By the time I was coffee’d out this morning, I decided it was time to […]
