Sunday already? Wow! Sad to see this pleasantly quiet weekend end. The weather was windy, cold, and rainy most of the weekend which was a great excuse to stay home and enjoy the fireplace. Yes, Miko is passed out on the hearth with my sock that he somehow got out of the laundry hamper, sneaky […]
WIAW with Tempeh Pate
Congrats to WIAW turning 50 posts old! And congrats to me for remembering to snap everything today to participate! Breakfast: My usual week morning smoothie with kale, carrots, frozen berries, frozen banana, Vitamineral Green, and Raw Protein. Followed by mid-morning tea at my desk. Lunch: Leftover balsamic spinach wrap from last night and a giant […]
New Year, New Protein, and New Goals
My new year started out with us manically catching up on house work and taking down Christmas decorations before heading over to my sister’s house for a casual dinner and gaming/hangout night. Our Christmas tree was so dry that chunks of it were falling off while we were taking the lights off and hubby had […]

Better late than never on a gift guide, right? Below is a list of goodies I’ve been enjoying this year that maybe a tricky friend of family member can enjoy too. Kiva Gift Card – Kiva is a non-profit organization that offers micro-loans to people around the world to start a business. Recipients of a […]
Back Into the Grind
Back to reality after a week in Florida and a long day of travel Saturday that ended late to get back home. We arrived at Orlando International Airport with enough time for lunch before catching the first flight. I scanned the restaurants in the terminal for decent vegan options, but was not impressed and ended […]
WIAW with Busy Splurges
Guess what? I’m finally participating in What I Ate Wednesday again! Well it’s exciting for me because I’ve been meaning to for awhile, but trying to log all my eats on a busy workday is not easy. Each day I plan to, something comes up and I forget to snaps pics. Not today! 7 AM […]
Running & Sauteed Salad
I’m so happy the weekend is finally here, but still counting down the days until things settle at work finally next weekend after a major project deadline. It’s been madness for over 6 weeks now with so much going on at work and in my personal life that I’m craving more downtime. This morning I […]
New Vega Product & Mystery Squash
I’m so relieved the long weekend is here and today was a wonderfully relaxing day. Except for my 8-mile run this morning in the heat. Since I’m on a month countdown until another half marathon, I ordered a new flavor of Vega Complete Whole Food Health Optimizer to assist with my training – berry flavor. […]
WIAW & Green Hummus
I’m relieved this week is more than halfway over because I’m exhausted with stress. I actually overslept my alarm this morning, I remember setting it before bed, but woke up 20 minutes past it to find it was off. Somehow I turned it off and don’t remember. Scary! Note to self: get to bed earlier […]
Going Green
Is it just me or is this week dragging? It feels like it should be Thursday, not Wednesday. Between busy days at work, getting sick, and moving a few mountains at home staving off loneliness while hubby is out of town, it’s been a crazy week so far! Even Leela is looking a little worse […]
