Whew, what a long day! And a fabulous day! For Christmas, my mom gifted me with a few hours with one my my favorite raw chefs, Stacey of Learn Fresh Cuisine. It was her introductory class I took over a year and a half ago that started me on my raw adventure. I decided to […]
Buzzing Around
Today was a wonderfully productive day that I took off from work to prepare for a raw party at my house tomorrow. A raw instructor is coming over with a bunch of recipes to demonstrate for my sisters, mom, family friends and myself. I can’t wait! But I had a lot to do to prepare […]
Orange Butternut Stew
I am a fan of pomegranates, the sweet and tarty seeds remind me of snacking by the pool on lazy summer days as a kid. Days when I was relaxed, having fun and not in a hurry because eating a raw pomegranate is a time-consuming project that the adult version of me still manages to […]
Simple Tangy Salad
I’m such a geek that I was almost late for work this morning trying to snap pictures of the full moon. I couldn’t help it, when I opened the back door to let the dog out and saw this, I had to grab the camera and try my luck at night time shooting. Needless to […]
Tacos… Sort Of
Back to the grind today and it was painful getting out of bed this morning. But thankfully an easy day compared to last week. I banged out a quick 3-mile run when I got home intending to step up my pace more. And I figured I was since the run was more challenging and tiring. […]
Staying In
Ah, what a relaxing day. Both hubby and I had today off and spent it at home before another possibly busy week. We didn’t need to go out and the weather was cold, foggy and wet all day, so why bother? It was great playing games, tackling projects, working out and eating. Like this lazy […]
Dough Balls & Tempeh Bacon
I am so relaxed now and that’s a good thing. It’s been a great productive, but relaxing day and I’m ready for another day off tomorrow! I had time today to check in on my indoor herb garden which is growing like crazy. Can’t wait for the fresh basil. I also got outside to do […]
Decompressing with Curry Salad & A Mushroom Burger
Ah, Happy Saturday! And what a wonderful, laid back day it’s been after our nightmare week. I slept in until a lazy 7:30 AM this morning because my dog decided it was time for me to get up. But I had a relaxed, slow morning sipping coffee. Typically on week mornings I always have a […]
Busy Day Almond Milk & Dinner Wraps
Today was another horrifically busy day, our IT team of 5 people was down to 2 and we were scrambling. The word tired just doesn’t seem to cut it after today. This morning before racing out the door, I used the last bit of almond milk in my coffee and was in no mood to […]
Nacho Skillet
Yet another mind-gooifying day at work, I hardly had time to catch my breath. It was one of the few days that I used the free weight on my desk to bang out some stress exercises while stuck on the phone – a very helpful stress reliever, much better than banging my head into the […]
