It’s official, I’m 40. And not bothered by it. I am a little about going back to the grind tomorrow after 4 fabulously fun days of celebrating. I took Thursday and Friday off just to have a long weekend to play. It started Wednesday night with hubby making this great green curry veggie dish for […]

Summer Fun for the Weekend List
Hello and happy Sunday. I am am sitting here drinking coffee and trying to prep myself for an early run and dog walk before it gets too hot because today’s high will be 108. It’s been an interesting week month so far. Typically July is a great month for me even though it’s hot as […]
Inspiration for the Weekend List
Aw, it’s finally getting cooler here, well highs in the 90s which I’ll happily take after 110 last week! And I can take the dogs for multiple walks today! Well, part walk and part carry for Leela. She tires out and needs breaks during longer walks at her age, so I carry her for a […]
Keeping Cool for the List
It’s been hot this weekend, today’s high is 107 degrees! Our high temps will be in the triple digits all week so I’m making sure all of my lighter work pants are clean and ready doing tons of laundry. Living in this kind of heat is not all bad as long as there’s working AC. […]
Getting Inspired by Marc S. Wood
Last night hubby and I headed to Zest Kitchen to be inspired by Marc S. Wood, a plant-based coach from New York City. While waiting for his presentation to begin, we started dinner with Revive Craft Cola Redux Kombucha. It’s probably my favorite flavor since I gave up soda years ago, but sometimes miss the […]
Stevia and Better Eats for the List
I have been a bad blogger this week, I failed to write a veggie burger post for national veggie burger day and didn’t even have a veggie burger! And I didn’t run or write about running on national running day! I know. My excuse is I’ve just been busy with work and I think veggie […]
What I’ve Been Eating
It dawned on me that the 4th of July is almost here – whoa! I keep thinking summer is further and it’s pretty much here. I took the pups for a long walk yesterday trying out Leela’s new harness and she crashed for hours after. Must have been a great walk! We had a quiet […]
Trail Time for the List
Summer has arrived here this weekend with temps in the 90s and I’m enjoying shorts and sandals. And lots of salads like this monster I got with hubby at Whole Foods Friday. There are falafel tots under there along with tasty marinated beans. And more spicy Thai curry, of course. Saturday we had a girls […]
Los Angeles Adventure Part 3
Time to wrap up our LA adventure. Saturday was another long, but awesome day. After hitting the hotel gym and breakfast bar for loaded vegan oatmeal bowls, we headed out to the La Brea Tar Pits. I honestly did not know much about the tar pits beyond what I’ve seen in movies like Volcano, so […]
