I am loving the fall feeling here, temps in the 70s this week with a cool breeze and leaves are turning. Finally after an insanely hot and dry summer. And Halloween is almost here! I have never been a costume person, I wasn’t even good at dressing up as a kid possibly because most of […]
Hints of Fall for the Weekend List
Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It’s actually starting to look like fall here with turning leaves and a rain storm! I didn’t mind getting working up at 2am by a massive thunder and lightening storm and downpour Saturday morning, we need the rain and it was pretty! Temps are staying below the 90s […]
Peppermint Chocolate Super Soft Serve
We are ready for Friday here, poor Miko has been following me around the house for more play time. And Smokey would like to remind me that it’s cat box sterilization time again this weekend. One more thing for my chore list. After a busy day, I treated myself to a hearty dessert this week […]
Ginger Brussels Sprouts and Quinoa
I have an interesting relationship with Brussels sprouts, I know they’re amazing nutritional powerhouses. But not easy to enjoy raw even pureed into smoothies and soups with their strong flavor and digestive challenges. Even Sheldon gave up on them on The Big Bang Theory. Cooking helps, but many cooking methods involve lots of oil and/or […]
Weekend List
Happy, relaxing Sunday, hope everyone is having a good weekend. I’m planning to actually buy pumpkins today, I’ve been so busy the last few weekends with travel and running that I just haven’t yet and feeling jealous looking at all the cool pumpkins on display at my neighbors houses. And maybe go for a long […]
Simple Baked Sweet Potatoes
Good news, Friday is almost here! And we’re still getting spaghetti squashes from our garden, I pulled two more along with a funky cucumber and eggplant yesterday. We only planted two spaghetti squash plants, but they’ve been producing like crazy unlike my kale or tomato plants this year. It’s been an odd year with the […]
Sunwarrior Smoothies & Simple Meals
The Vegan Zombie guys have the first couple of videos posted from the Vegan Vacation at Sea, Leaving for Seattle and Day 1 Leaving Seattle. Check them out if you want to see video from the cruise. I can’t wait to see the rest of the videos, such happy memories! Leela has been having a rough […]
Weekend List w/ Another Half Done
It is nice to sit down and catch up after a busy morning. I ran the Urban Cow Half Marathon this morning for the 6th year in a row and hopefully I can keep that momentum going. But more on that shortly! Earlier this week I ran to Trader Joe’s to restock the kitchen after our […]
Fall Curried Apple Dressing
When we first got back from our week long cruise vacation, Smokey was not happy with us. She was right at the door as soon as we opened it with suitcases in hand to yell at us for not being home for a week. And it continued most of the next day with her following us […]
Vegan Alaskan Cruise Part 4
Whew, still trying to settle back into the grind after our amazing Vegan Alaskan Cruise. We got home late Saturday night and have been busy cleaning, spending time with family, shopping, and working since. So, I am still catching up with the pictures and events from it and slowly getting back into the swing of […]
