Hi! Popping in with a quick post from Austin, TX, today was the final day of Vida Vegan Con and I have tons of photos and info to sort through and have been having too much fun here to do so. We just got back from the final after party where we had kale margaritas at Cheer Up Charlies and […]
Back Home
Sigh, back to the grind tomorrow after such a fun Thanksgiving week and more unpacking and laundry today. We were is Oxnard for Thanksgiving visiting my dad, it’s a lovely area on the beach in Southern California. The high was 80 degrees and our hotel had a pool and hot tub we lounged at for […]
Holiday Road
Happy Thanksgiving! We’re in Oxnard, CA visiting my dad and planning to have Thanksgiving on his boat. Lots of people crammed on a boat trying to prepare food in a tiny kitchen, should be fun! :-P Luckily there’s a Whole Foods near our hotel where I picked up a Tofurkey Vegan Roast, vegan gravy, and […]
Scenes from San Francisco
Shadow is hanging in there, he’s been eating and roaming the house which is hopeful that he has a little more time. And I am finally done recapping last weekend after this post and what a weekend it was! After leaving the VegFest Saturday, we checked into our hotel near Union Square in San Francisco […]
Great Eats and Views in Tahoe
Aw, I am still in vacation mode… what day of the week is it? Oh yeah, Happy 4th of July! We’ve been having a great time in Lake Tahoe the last few days hiking, biking, exploring, relaxing, and eating. Some notable eats from the last couple of days are this pineapple teriyaki veggie burger from […]
Farmers Market Finds
I’m one of those crazy people that still exercises even on vacation, making time for the gym is a big deal especially with the decadent eating that usually comes with traveling. It seems lame to spend time indoors in a gym when I’m staying in a new area, but checking out and using a variety […]
Light Travel Packing
After a long day in the air yesterday, we made it to Florida finally! It was a little sad leaving the Sac area on such a beautiful morning. But what a weather difference here. I’m actually wearing a tank top and saturated myself in sweat on a run this morning! Oh yeah, that’s what humidity […]
Escaping to Apple Hill
I finally got a day off work today to sneak up to Apple Hill for a little festive fall scenery. It ended up being just my mom and I on this trip, but the weather was perfect, in the 60s and sunny. Apple Hill can be a bit dizzying to visit because there are tons […]
Experiencing Living Light
On our final day in Fort Bragg, CA, we hit the down town area for a little shopping and lunch before starting the 4-hour drive home. There were plenty of cute little shops to spend money in. And lots of dog-friendly products since it’s a very dog-friendly town. I can just see my dog wearing…. […]
Beachcomber Motel & Point Cabrillo
Again today I’m not posting about food, but still gushing about our fabulous mini-getaway to Fort Bragg, CA. Good thing because today wasn’t fabulous, it was actually a long and stressful day that started with a crazy morning at work. Then taking a long lunch to visit my grandma in the hospital which was a […]
