How did Monday get here so fast? And it was another gray and dreary day, overcast, cold and rainy – not pretty. Seriously, where’s our June weather? If the forecast tells the truth, it’ll be here later this week with plenty of sun and temps in the 80s – I can’t wait! No more mud […]
Spinach & Tempeh Bacon Fry
Whew, what a long day! But a great day despite nonstop rain and 6 hours of driving. Details tomorrow since I have over 200 pictures to go through and too relaxed after a glass of wine to do so. In the meantime, how about a wonderful bacon tempeh recipe? I’ve always wanted to try Lightlife’s […]
Tempeh Happiness
Wow, TGIF! I’m so thrilled it’s Friday and to be home relaxing with hubby after another insane week. And the craziness caught up to me today, I was feeling just tired and lethargic at work after a few not-so-great nights of sleep being on-call. But it’s finally the weekend and I’m looking forward to some […]
It’s over …
Monday that is and finally! It felt like one of those days I just should have stayed in bed. For some reason I woke up very tired even after getting enough sleep, maybe kicking out the last of this cold? Then I was running a little late this morning and got a work call while […]
Fast Tempeh Skillet
Hey, how did Monday get here so quick? After a busy day at work and another day of chilly wind, rain and gray, I was in the mood for something hot and comforting for dinner with maybe a little kick. I got out one of my favorite protein sources – tempeh, LightLife’s Organic Flax Tempeh […]
Balsamic Tempeh
One thing I do not miss since going vegan is cooking meat and what hassle that could be trying to cook it properly with one-pot meals while not under cooking it or drying it out. And you know how much I adore quick, vegan one-pot meals since most of my main recipes are exactly that. […]
Guacamole Dressing
My lucky hubby has this entire week off to play with our new gifts at home while I slave away at work, it’s not fair I tell ya! Actually this week hasn’t been that bad, yet. But it’s given him a lot of time with the new camera to annoy the cats. They’re trying to […]
Ginger Stir Fry
Today was kind of a dirty trick weather-wise, it was sunny and crisp while not being too cold. Perfect. But I had to work all day. And now rain pretty much sums up our forecast until Christmas. Oh well, a good excuse to stay inside, enjoy the fireplace and play in the kitchen. Thankfully my […]
Rushed Lunch & Remixing Leftovers
For some reason I keep thinking today is Thursday – wishful thinking! But at least the work week is halfway over. Typically I know better than to go to Whole Foods for lunch on a rainy day. But I decided to risk it today since I needed to pick up a few things. Our Whole […]
Salad, Stir Fry & Our Tree
Last year we went all out for our Christmas tree, driving to a nice tree farm in Apple Hill to select a fresh cut tree. That was fun and it was an awesome tree, but also pricey, time-consuming and next to impossible to get in the rain. Since the weather was mushy and time was […]
