I could use a little more weekend before going back to work, this has been a crazy week month. I have been volunteering for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge doing social media, running the fundraising month for our department at work, and adapting to my new job. It’s been a lot in a good way, […]
Vegan Food Overload for the List
Another week and weekend flew by which has been the way lately with work being busy. It’s also been a week of decadent eating with the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge going on all this month, so much that I’m going to need a food detox when it’s over! Let’s start with healthier eats at home […]
So Many Great Eats
Well this weekend flew by too fast. I am adjusting to my new job and the challenges of being a new manager and working more hours, but loving it and looking forward to the changes I’ll be able to make. This week I will be focusing on very healthy, whole food plant based eating after […]
Changes for the List
Whew, oh happy long weekend! And it’s the last day of August, crazy! As little hints of fall nearing, I am getting excited for turning leaves and pumpkin season. Miko is happy if it means cooler temps for more walks. Things are changing with my job because I got the promotion and am starting in […]
Lots of fun for the List
Here we are at Sunday again, wow! As you have probably figured, I have been struggling a bit the last few weeks with work drama and stress feeling overall burned out on the weekends. The details are long and boring, but I’ve been working out plans to be prepared for however this drama plays out […]
Downtown Getaway
What I love about Northern California is it’s never a far drive to find different scenery and climate. Tired of the heat in the valley? Head to the bay area or up the mountains for a day trip. Wanna see snow? It’s also just a short drive into the mountains. For me, Auburn is a […]
Vibrant Food, Hot Spot
Getting to Midtown’s Cantina Alley in Midtown Sacramento is a bit of an adventure tucked in an alley between J and K streets. But you can’t miss the vibrant entrance and eager line outside. We headed there before 6pm on a Saturday figuring we’d never get in any later and the wait already confirmed we […]
Midtown Oasis
Leisurely exploring midtown Sacramento is one of my favorite weekend activities. There are always fun shops, historical open houses, and great options for vegan dining thanks to the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge. But finding a restaurant with fresh new vegan options celebrating seasonal ingredients can be a challenge. That’s not a problem at Revolution Wines […]
Vegan Chef Challenge Eats
Happy Halloween. Hope you’re not eating too much candy, but a little is delicious once in awhile especially if it’s vegan candy. The trick-or-treaters are slowing down here and I’m a little sad October is over which means the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge is too. We tried to cram more good eats out while it […]
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 […]
