It’s been hot this weekend, today’s high is 107 degrees! Our high temps will be in the triple digits all week so I’m making sure all of my lighter work pants are clean and ready doing tons of laundry. Living in this kind of heat is not all bad as long as there’s working AC. […]
Getting Inspired by Marc S. Wood
Last night hubby and I headed to Zest Kitchen to be inspired by Marc S. Wood, a plant-based coach from New York City. While waiting for his presentation to begin, we started dinner with Revive Craft Cola Redux Kombucha. It’s probably my favorite flavor since I gave up soda years ago, but sometimes miss the […]
Stevia and Better Eats for the List
I have been a bad blogger this week, I failed to write a veggie burger post for national veggie burger day and didn’t even have a veggie burger! And I didn’t run or write about running on national running day! I know. My excuse is I’ve just been busy with work and I think veggie […]
Vegan Festival & Women’s Fitness Festival 10k
It has been a busy weekend, in a good way. Maybe not for Leela, she has been a couch potato most of the weekend enjoying her blanket. Even dragging it into the kitchen when she jumped out of bed for dinnertime. I had a simple, post gym dinner Thursday of veggies and tofu sauteed in […]
What I’ve Been Eating
It dawned on me that the 4th of July is almost here – whoa! I keep thinking summer is further and it’s pretty much here. I took the pups for a long walk yesterday trying out Leela’s new harness and she crashed for hours after. Must have been a great walk! We had a quiet […]
Trail Time for the List
Summer has arrived here this weekend with temps in the 90s and I’m enjoying shorts and sandals. And lots of salads like this monster I got with hubby at Whole Foods Friday. There are falafel tots under there along with tasty marinated beans. And more spicy Thai curry, of course. Saturday we had a girls […]
Running with Chickens for the List
Leela is finally getting the hang of her cuddle bed! Well, most of the time. But that’s progress! And I am feeling sleepy looking at that pic after a long day, but need to finish catching up on laundry for the week first. Allergies are better after I broke down and started using Flonase. I […]
Los Angeles Adventure Part 3
Time to wrap up our LA adventure. Saturday was another long, but awesome day. After hitting the hotel gym and breakfast bar for loaded vegan oatmeal bowls, we headed out to the La Brea Tar Pits. I honestly did not know much about the tar pits beyond what I’ve seen in movies like Volcano, so […]
Los Angeles Adventure Part 1 for the List
We’re sitting at the airport waiting for our flight home after a fun and packed few days in Los Angeles. This may sound strange as a Californian, but it’s been years since I’ve vacationed in this area and after this trip we will be back soon. And goodness, I have so much to cover after […]
Slowing Down for the List
Happy Easter! We’re getting ready to head to a family party – always looking forward to great company, good food and wine. Miko and Leela are not happy with me because the weather is wet and rainy again today and I need to figure out how to get them out for a walk soon. I […]
