We are back to good air quality this weekend with fall temps which is wonderful, Miko has been happy to snuggle in his warm beds and blankets. And Miko had a new adventure Saturday at the dog park. We went with my mom, her dog, my sister, and her dog. We stuck to the small […]
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 […]
Downtown Getaway
What I love about Northern California is it’s never a far drive to find different scenery and climate. Tired of the heat in the valley? Head to the bay area or up the mountains for a day trip. Wanna see snow? It’s also just a short drive into the mountains. For me, Auburn is a […]
Vibrant Food, Hot Spot
Getting to Midtown’s Cantina Alley in Midtown Sacramento is a bit of an adventure tucked in an alley between J and K streets. But you can’t miss the vibrant entrance and eager line outside. We headed there before 6pm on a Saturday figuring we’d never get in any later and the wait already confirmed we […]
Midtown Oasis
Leisurely exploring midtown Sacramento is one of my favorite weekend activities. There are always fun shops, historical open houses, and great options for vegan dining thanks to the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge. But finding a restaurant with fresh new vegan options celebrating seasonal ingredients can be a challenge. That’s not a problem at Revolution Wines […]
Vegan Chef Challenge Eats
Happy Halloween. Hope you’re not eating too much candy, but a little is delicious once in awhile especially if it’s vegan candy. The trick-or-treaters are slowing down here and I’m a little sad October is over which means the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge is too. We tried to cram more good eats out while it […]
More Vegan Chef Challenge Eats for the List
Another weekend flew by too fast, but it was a great week and weekend with lots of good eats for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge. At Grocery Outlet, hubby found these little single serve containers of Go Veggie Vegan Chive & Garlic Cream Cheese he had to try for a baked potato. He is a […]
Birthday Weekend for the List
Whew, where did this weekend go? We’re still looking into a replacement mattress and have not bought anything yet and will probably resume the search next weekend. This weekend was lots of birthday fun for me and laziness for the pups in the heat. In some ways I still have not wrapped my mind around […]
Vegan Burger Battle Wrap Up & Giveaway
This week I learned shopping for alarm clocks suck. It’s time to replace my 20+ year old clock radio due to volume issues and I spent way too much time filtering through random, crappy options on Amazon reading reviews. I decided to order a $17 cool looking wood model that had great reviews and I […]
So Many Vegan Burgers for the List
This has been an interesting few weeks that have taught me we can literally eat anything vegan these days! Between all the crazy eats at Eat Drink Vegan, vegan burgers so real it’s freaky, and so many dining out options here – just wow. Leela is only mildly impressed, actually she’s been lazy this week […]
