The weather has been a little crazy in California again, strong winds, colder than usual temps, snow flurries, hail, and lots of rain. Not complaining and taking the opportunity to rest at home while we’re getting rid of this bug and work on house projects. And enjoy the scenery when mother nature takes a break. […]
Recovering for the List
I am here and recovering from something that has been going on for 10 days now. Not COVID, at least according to the many home tests. But a stuffy, annoying respiratory thing with congestion, headaches, and lacking energy. Super Bowl Sunday and Valentine’s Day were kind of a bust because of it, but I have […]
Whirlwind Week Eats for the List
The rain came back this weekend which is great, we still need all we can get and I’ve been able to get some outdoor time around it taking in geese making the most of little lakes and greenery. It has been a crazy and interesting week where I have been lacking creativity and eating lots […]
Rain and Fun Eats for the List
Whoa, Sunday again. We need longer weekends, but I am optimistic for a good week ahead. The rain and clouds came back today, but we were able to get some outdoor time before and seeing wildlife enjoying the very full lakes and ponds. My goal for this year is to get to a healthier place […]
Fun Weekend Outings for the List
I have been enjoying mostly dry weather this week after repeated winter storms, but still lots of full ponds and pretty clouds on outdoor walks. And had a nice lunch on Old Town Sacramento today to celebrate a special family birthday, eat vegan enchiladas, and take in how full the rivers still are currently! Last […]
Winter Weather Eats for the List
Things are still chaotic here with the winter storms California is getting pounded with the last few weeks. I’m not complaining and thankful for the much needed rain for the state. Maybe getting a little tired of staying in on the weekends and ready to get out for some sunshine. And a little sad to […]
Back At It for the List
I’m here and trying to smoothly transition into 2023 after some down time. We’ve been hunkering mostly at home when not working while getting so much rain and storms the last couple of weeks. That’s glorious, we need all the rain. But seeing a bit of wind damage and debris from gusts up to 60 […]
Wrapping up 2022 for the List
I’m here and have been enjoying a few days of being lazy and unmotivated. The holidays are such an interesting time that seems to end rapidly after weeks of buildup. I’m not complaining, instead enjoying a week of furlough that comes with my new job. In the past I rarely took additional time off for […]
Finding Holiday Spirit for the List
Less than a week, Christmas is less than a week away! Still wrapping my head around that, does not feel real yet even though I ran some frantic last minute shopping errands today to prepare before going into the work week. And we’re trying to get more into the spirit here creating a crazy gingerbread […]
Hectic Holiday Eats for the List
I have been not great about documenting eats this week such as the interesting vegan options at a work holiday brunch or a last minute work group lunch to a Mexican restaurant where the veganized veggie enchiladas weren’t bad. And I hosted a vegan dine-out for the Sacramento Vegetarian Society at Pho Vegan Asian Cuisine […]
