Not sure I’m ready for the weekend to end, it’s been mostly relaxing inside thanks to wild rainy and windy weather. The clouds between the storms have been gorgeous while Miko fully preferred snuggling inside where it’s dry. Both the pups have been happy to enjoy warm blankets and the fireplace lately, isn’t Leela adorable […]
Leftovers for the List
It has been a weird, weird week that started with a bad Monday. Work was busy, then we had to evacuate early due to a brush fire nearby and strong winds which thankfully was not a problem. But fires are not taken lightly around here! Then I was not able to get much work done […]
Fun Weekend for the List
Again, Sunday got here way too fast. But it has been a fun and productive weekend after a busy work week. But first the weekday eats that included chickpea pasta with marinara and veggies, curry sweet potato saute, cauliflower stir fry, and a simple soy curl stir fry with tamari. And another simple tempeh stir […]
Back from Florida for the List
It is nice to be back home, we spent last week visiting family in Florida that started with a late flight Sunday night out of Sacramento. I tried to sleep on the flight and maybe got a decent 3 hours of sleep, but I am not a good plane sleeper. We arrived at Atlanta very […]
Keeping Busy for the List
Still trying to wrap my head around that it’s November already and Thanksgiving is not far away. The last few weeks have been so busy at work with a new job that I haven’t even been thinking about the holidays. But the pups are embracing the cooler weather for lazy snooze time snuggled in blankets. […]
Back to Better Habits for the List
Wow, November already and this week has been hectic. Getting an extra hour this weekend was nice and needed for a little extra sleep. Last Sunday we took my dad out for his birthday to Il Fornaio where it was a nice surprise to see they’re labeling more vegan items on the menu and the […]
Chef Challenge Wrap Up for the List
I could use a little more weekend before going back to work, this has been a crazy week month. I have been volunteering for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge doing social media, running the fundraising month for our department at work, and adapting to my new job. It’s been a lot in a good way, […]
Vegan Food Overload for the List
Another week and weekend flew by which has been the way lately with work being busy. It’s also been a week of decadent eating with the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge going on all this month, so much that I’m going to need a food detox when it’s over! Let’s start with healthier eats at home […]
So Many Great Eats
Well this weekend flew by too fast. I am adjusting to my new job and the challenges of being a new manager and working more hours, but loving it and looking forward to the changes I’ll be able to make. This week I will be focusing on very healthy, whole food plant based eating after […]
Living It Up for the List
October already and a magical month for vegans in the Sacramento area with the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge and Sacramento’s Vegan Food Festival! It’s a month of vegan food overload if there is such a thing and we’ve already hit 4 of the restaurants for the vegan chef challenge. Meanwhile, the pups are perfectly happy […]
