Formerly The Raw Project - Running on a Healthy Vegan Diet
Happy Easter. We hosted a smaller scale family gathering here and spent much of yesterday cleaning and preparing for that. I made this vegan carrot cake recipe, but switched out the frosting with Miss Jones Vanilla Vegan Frosting I found at Sprouts since we could not use the cashew based option in the recipe with […]
Wow, Easter is almost here, crazy. And we’re hosting at our house this year and we’re hardly ready, eek. But that’s okay, it’s been that kind of month and we plan to keep it casual. There is still a dog competition going on here with Miko and my mom’s dog, Dasher, who is very camera […]
This weekend seemed to fly by too fast, but it was a productive weekend. We still have my mom’s dog, Dasher, while she is recovering from hip replacement surgery and he is a, uh, portly dog. He’s a sweetheart, but could stand to loose a few pounds and gets tired on long walks with Miko […]
I had to throw the towel in and email my doctor because after 2 weeks the cough and cold symptoms were not going away. So I’m on 5 days of antibiotic to tame possible infections which can cause other challenges killing good bacteria too. So I’m throwing in more pro and prebiotics this week with […]
It has been a strange and disorienting week starting very early Monday getting my mom to the hospital for hip replacement surgery. Since then, it’s been a busy schedule rotating with my sisters helping her recover, staying overnight for the recommended hours of monitoring, working, and still dealing with this damn cold. Thankfully things are […]
Leisurely exploring midtown Sacramento is one of my favorite weekend activities. There are always fun shops, historical open houses, and great options for vegan dining thanks to the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge. But finding a restaurant with fresh new vegan options celebrating seasonal ingredients can be a challenge. That’s not a problem at Revolution Wines […]
It has not been an easy week, lots of challenges that have me looking forward to things settling down. The biggest stress source has been getting sick while getting my mom ready for a big hip surgery tomorrow, eek! I’ve been fighting off an annoying cold most of last week, that proved to be something […]
We’re still kind of waiting for spring here with more rain and storms this week, the pups seem especially frustrated with rain interrupting evening walks. Poor Miko rushes out to the back yard excited for fresh air, comes to a halt and looks back at me and pouts about the rain. But I am not […]
This weekend flew by, I could use another day or two off I think! But it’s been a good and productive weekend with sweet Miko getting in more cuddle time. And gorgeous weather today after two more days of rain. But I’m not complaining about the rain after last summer! I am getting excited about […]
Happy first day of spring. It wasn’t very spring-like today with thunderstorms and hail! But I’m not complaining about getting rain and the sun should be back tomorrow. I am celebrating spring with this simple dressing. I love just about all berries, great in smoothies, oatmeal, and frozen in wine. They’re also great in a […]
