Whew, this week seems to be flying by and we’ve been flying through fun new dishes and products the last few weeks. One of my favorite weekend breakfasts lately are cheddar grits, but I’m happy with just about any vegan “cheese” melted into grits. Nature’s Path Quick Cook Organic Grits are so simple to cook […]
Surviving the Heat
Ugh on the heat here this week, over triple digits for the next week and 111 degrees for Friday and Saturday! Odd and scary to be this hot this time of year. It’s been sucking my energy and makes everything feel slower and dragging. Including poor Leela, lately taking her on walks has been even […]
Simple Meal Inspiration
This has been a busy week already and it’s only Tuesday. I haven’t been motivated to get creative in the kitchen yet this week with so much and sticking to keeping things simple and healthy. Like this tofu and cabbage saute with onions and broccoli, seasoned with tamari sauce, fresh grated ginger, and minced garlic. […]
Vegan Festival & Women’s Fitness Festival 10k
It has been a busy weekend, in a good way. Maybe not for Leela, she has been a couch potato most of the weekend enjoying her blanket. Even dragging it into the kitchen when she jumped out of bed for dinnertime. I had a simple, post gym dinner Thursday of veggies and tofu sauteed in […]
Life & Simple Meals
I am pretty happy this week is almost over and I didn’t get called in for jury duty, woohoo! I was on call having to check each night to see if needed the next day this week, so that was a relief. And it actually got chilly here again this week – lows in the […]
Better Pace for the Weekend List
My sister and I are still working on our crazy goal of 100 miles of races in 2017 which means four half marathons, a full marathon, and smaller races between. Yesterday we took on the Race for Justice Valentine Run which was just a 4-mile race, but a festive Valentine’s event with a fun mix […]
Super Sunday 10k and the List
Happy Super Bowl Sunday! Any good plans? Not here, just chilling at home and hopefully getting dogs out for a long walk while it’s not raining. But I did run the Super Sunday Run 10k this morning at Sacramento State University where there was lots of football festivities and even some runners carried a football […]
Hunker Down for the Weekend List
Thank you for the kind words about Smokey, it’s still a sad adjustment. And yesterday morning I had to go back to the vet for the chihuahua’s annual checkup and shots appointment I scheduled awhile back and forgot about. Not fun being back there so soon after and the pups were really not happy to go, […]
Just Chillin’ for the List
Happy Sunday, can you believe next weekend is Christmas?! December is flying by. Smokey is hanging in there, she likes to park it between me and the keyboard on weekend mornings when I’m in the office. She is not as energetic as she was a few weeks ago, but does not seem to be in […]
Healthy Eats & Tough Running
December can be a tough month and even tougher this year I think with stress and feelings of blah. Having a crappy run at the gym tonight did not help, it was a bonk since I’m still getting rid of chest cold remnants. But still I’m glad I got it in and I think it helped open […]
