I have a love/hate relationship with my current gym that prompts me to look at other options occasionally. Sure, it’s only $10 a month and they have a plentiful number of treadmills. But it also has crowded and chaotic seasons which we’re in now – everyone wants to look good for summer I guess! There […]
House Guest & Vegan Burgers for the List
We are dog sitting my mom’s dog, Dasher, for the next week while she’s on vacation and he’s not sure about being in our house yet. He’s on the, uh, heftier side and does not seem to like any of our dog beds, but he loves following Miko around. My mom swears he’s not over […]
Banana Dressing & Paleo Protein
Miko has been a little frustrated with us this week, he wants more walk time and play time in the warmer weather. But it’s been an intense week at work and my turn to be on call this week. On call weeks are more draining for me even if there’s little to no activity, just […]
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 […]
More Vegan Burgers & Smoothie Boost
Happy Wednesday, we’re closer to the weekend and trying more vegan burgers for The Great Sacramento Vegan Burger Battle. I can’t wait! And I got three fast-food loving co-workers to try the vegan burger offerings from Zest Kitchen for lunch today with rave reviews. Hopefully they will continue to try more around the area. Tonight […]
Vegan Burger Battle for the List
It’s been a crazy week here since getting back from our whirlwind adventure in LA last weekend, hubby had to take off on more work travel for the week and it was madness for me at work. It wasn’t for Leela, she is loving crashing in her new cooling bed with the hot weather this […]
LA Trip Part 2: Eat Drink Vegan & Pasadena
Where to start on the Eat Drink Vegan festival, there was so much it was overwhelming! How about on the morning of the festival when I should have been pretty tired after a long day at Universal Studios the day before. But oh no, I woke up wired well before 7 am. Instead of disturbing […]
LA Trip Part 1: Little Pine and Universal Studios
Happy Memorial Day! Hope everyone is having a great holiday, we’re relaxing and catching up on laundry after a packed weekend in LA that I’m still going through hundreds of photos from between hubby and I! We left Thursday for a long weekend in LA that included going back to Little Pine, Universal Studios Hollywood, […]
Stuff We Ate
It’s been a busy week, I just have not been feeling too creative in the kitchen beyond focusing on using stuff up and keeping dishes mostly whole food plant based. But this sweet potato tofu curry saute came out great. I chopped up a large sweet potato and simmered it in a little veggie broth, […]
Impossible Burger for the List
Whoa, this weekend flew by too fast. Not sure I’m ready to go back to work tomorrow, I could use some more rest time like Miko. It’s been a rough week with lots going on at work, so there has been a lot of simple eats including tofu stir fries, huge meal salads, Thai takeout, […]
