First I’m kind of addicted to these 2016 memes, can you relate? After trying to avoid the crap storm a negative news and social media. And not successfully doing it, ugh. There were disappointments for everyone this year. I like to see the ups and downs of 2016 as a reminder to focus on the […]
Going the Distance for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday! It is nice to relax a bit, I’m feeling more caught up and chilled after a busy couple of weeks. Friday night hubby and I stepped out for spicy Thai vegan comfort food – I just adore this simple cashew tofu stir fry. I’m getting more into the fall spirit and have been […]
Easy , Whole Food Eats
Happy almost Friday! I’m ready for some downtime this weekend after our whirlwind trip. I still feel like I’m catching up on sleep, laundry, etc. from it and have not had much recipe experimenting time. But I did try this treat I scored at Grocery Outlet – Parsnip Chipotle Lime Cilantro Snip Chips. Crunchy with a […]
Hemp Ranch Dressing
I’m feeling better after a bumpy week. Thanks for the sweet well wishes on my dad, he is doing better and we’ll be making a trip to visit him later this week. So I may not get an opportunity to post again until the weekend. Smokey is not interested in drama, she is more interested […]
New Running Shoes and Tacos for the List
I am loving this long weekend! It’s cooler out, the weather was great for my long run this morning and I think I will be taking the dogs for a long walk here in the few. It has been a tough week for training. I had the house to myself this week with hubby on business […]
Simple Tahini Stir Fry
I am thankful for the long weekend ahead after this week. Poor Miko gives me this sad look when I’m wiped after a day of work and training and he wants to play. Such a guilt trip! But he’s been spending a lot of time in the backyard with me where I am scoring lots […]
Easy One Pot Meals
Smokey had the right idea Sunday, snuggle up on the couch all day. I was tempted after my long run and long week! But laundry and house work called and so did these World Peas BBQ Fava Crisps for an afternoon snack. I wasn’t sure what to expect – can fava beans make a good […]
Pizza and Spicy Tofu for the List
The weather is so nice today, I’m not feeling depressed that tomorrow is Monday. Lows in the 50s here make perfect morning running weather for my 8 mile easy run this morning. Pace wasn’t super impressive, but my legs and knee are feeling the extra running this week – 22.44 miles total. So my goal […]
Simple & Chill Eats
Happy almost Friday and I am grateful the weekend is almost here. I’m also grateful for my sweet hubby for always being such an amazing person. I’ve been focusing on a lot of positives this week with so much craziness. I knew it’s been coming for awhile and I’ve been putting it off for as […]
Weekend List w/ New Tofu & Protein
It’s been a relaxing weekend so far here, lots of lounging around and Leela burying herself in blankets. And great eats this week. I have been focusing on adding more beans to my diet lately and mainly in salads and soups thanks to inspiration from Dr. Greger. And canned organic beans are cheaper than tofu, […]
