Formerly The Raw Project - Running on a Healthy Vegan Diet
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Doing anything fun? Green beer? Not here, we went for a run, tackled house work, saw a movie, and went to Costco which was actually great since it wasn’t crowded for the holiday. I may have even forgotten to wear green, oops. Last Sunday’s meetup at Vegan Plate worked out okay […]
Even today, it can be hard to find great vegan options at a restaurant that serves a range of dietary preferences and needs. Too often I’ve had watered down salads, french fries, and/or dry veggie burgers that were a compromise to accommodate everyone. Chef John Van Huynh at Pho Fresh is passionate about pleasing everyone […]
Wow, this weekend flew by too fast. But it’s been a fun weekend with some decadent eating and fun in the vegan community. I tried to keep eats healthier and whole food plant based at home during the week with oil free roasted potatoes and butternut squash soup, veggie tofu stir fries, and curried potato […]
One of my goals for 2019 is to reduce my disposable plastic use and trash in general and have been spending a lot of time on the Zero Waste Subreddit It’s not easy with personal care items and so much food coming in plastic! So it’s been baby steps switching to shampoo bars, trying alternative […]
I’m a little sad the weekend is almost over, after a busy week, I’m not sure I’m ready to head back to work tomorrow. Oh well, hoping for a great week. Running has just been eh the last few days, I’ve been getting runs in, but not hitting the pace I’d like and dragging a […]
January is an odd month, isn’t it? I find myself trying to get motivated for the year, feeling pressure to meet goals and get things going while sometimes having the blahs and lacking motivation with the winter weather. It’s been a productive long weekend so far while we tackle house projects and I’ve been doing […]
Wow, this weekend flew by too fast. Miko agreed, he jumped out of bed so excited for his long walk Saturday, he dragged his blanket with him. Of course there was a deal hunting trip to Grocery Outlet where I scored cheap cans of organic beans, hummus and almond dips, and Kite Hill Vegan Yogurt […]
