The journey of adopting a high raw vegan diet.
Back at Monday already, bummer. I thoroughly enjoyed a laid back and productive weekend and needed the down time to catch up and rest before the busy week of projects and being on call for work. And today was a busy start to the week that I’d like to forget by reliving the weekend highlights. [...]
Wow Monday got here fast, back to reality today after a lovely relaxing day yesterday. Long runs from home are going to be a challenge for awhile with a lot of construction going on, one of my favorite running paths just became a construction zone for a new subdivision. So I took a little road [...]
It has been a wonderful weekend so far and I’ve been eating like a queen! Whew, really need that long run tomorrow. :-) I met hubby for lunch at Baagan yesterday for my latest addiction – the salad trio plate. It’s a new dish with three salads on one plate and the salads are switched [...]
Whew, it’s almost Friday! I’m so glad after another weird and busy week at work. I’ve been in a stressed out funk the last two days with so much going on and I’m pretty sure the pups know it. They’ve been carefully watching and following me and being sweet little lap buddies when I finally [...]
I’m a little sad that our three day weekend is coming to an end, but feeling refreshed for the work week ahead – I hope. It’s been a productive, relaxing, and fun weekend that’s just easier to break down in a list. :-) 1. With all the controversy surrounding GMO foods, especially corn and soy, [...]
Oh boy, Monday again. Actually this one isn’t too bad since I’m not on call for work this week and I’m taking a much needed day off. Mondays are a great opportunity to start the week of food off right. In one of the raw vegan recipe classes I went to awhile back, we were [...]
Yesterday we celebrated my niece’s birthday at SkyZone, a huge trampoline gym in this area, where the adults had a blast too. I spent an hour doing this. And this. Acting like a big kid. Trying some tricks and just having fun burning energy. And wow, I forgot how much of a workout it is [...]
Why isn’t it Friday yet?! Happy Wednesday. It’s been a strange week here with a lot going on at work and home, I’ve been feeling torn in many directions at work. I think poor Miko is getting a little bored with me hoping for a little play time. Such a sad face. And I feel [...]
Monday is almost over, whew! And happy Earth Day! Doing anything special to celebrate? Not me … besides being a vegan, driving an electric car, and composting. :-) Composting is an interesting adventure that can be messy and take up a lot of space, but LifeHacker posted a super easy method to create instant compost [...]
Well, another weekend flew by too fast. At least it was a crazy and fun weekend! My husband is in an 80s rock cover band and they’re awesome for a group of guys with full time IT jobs. Last night they had a wild gig at a private party and the location was gorgeous. The [...]
Well hello Monday, how did you get here so fast? The weekend flew by, don’t they always? But it was productive, I buzzed around a lot yesterday running errands, cleaning, and tackling laundry for the week. And we got in a little relax time too, Shadow was happy to have hubby’s lap while looking through [...]
Whew, I’m feeling a little wiped after an awesome 12k race! Today started very early with a huge pre-race smoothie of hemp protein powder, strawberries, banana, kale, carrots, chia seeds, and dates for plenty of energy. I left the house at 6:45am to pick up my sister and dash to the Run Rocklin 12k we [...]
Even though it was a busy weekend, I still miss it! I had a great 6-mile run Saturday training for an upcoming 12k race. And had enough energy to take the dogs for a long walk after to visit grazing sheep in our neighborhood. They all came to the fence to get a closer look [...]
I love Easter for the festivities and family gatherings. But it also makes for a busy weekend! I’m so thankful the weekend is here after a busy week and enjoying a little morning quiet time drinking coffee before heading out on a 6-mile run, but feeling a little overwhelmed at the amount of chores I [...]
It was a fantastically fun and busy weekend, but getting up this morning for work was brutal! After a busy and fun day Saturday of visiting the farm sanctuary, shopping, and eating out, I got up early Sunday to head out on a 5-mile training run for an upcoming 12k race and prepare food for [...]
