The journey of adopting a high raw vegan diet.
Happy Saturday, so glad the weekend is here! The last few days at work have been nuts, so I’m grateful to have a little down time planned this weekend to catch up, run, and relax. And maybe get to making a huge batch of kale chips, we’ll see! Yesterday we stopped by Whole Foods for [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Miko goes through toys, lots of toys, and usually by ripping holes in them so big a sewing machine can’t save them. He even brings his toys to bed and pouts when he leaves them in the backyard until we open the door so he can go get it. He’s a happy camper with his [...]
Happy Saturday. We’re nice and relaxed here, Leela has not been wanting to get out of bed the last few mornings. I took yesterday off work and hubby and I have basically been playing and relaxing the last two days and it’s been wonderful after a strange and stressful work week. I took Friday off [...]
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 [...]
I know, another avocado dressing. I can’t help it! Avocados are cheap here now, under $1 each. And they’re amazing! Plus I have a few ripe ones I needed to use up quick this week. I have not been to a grocery store in over a week as I’m having fun using up what I [...]
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 [...]
What a day at work, ugh! One of those days where I didn’t even have a minute to catch my breath between putting out fires and I’m feeling the stress with everything I need to do tomorrow circling in my mind. It’s also been a super windy day making poor Miko frustrated about going outside. [...]
It’s been very windy here the last few days, probably my least favorite weather especially for running! Good thing I’ve been on run rest since Sunday’s 12k and hitting the elliptical while trying to catch up on Mad Men. Miko is not a fan of the wind either avoiding even going into the backyard to [...]
I’m so happy the weekend is finally here and we’ve been living it up already celebrating hubby’s birthday with a little fine dining last night where I might have had too many amazing garlic fries and wine. So today we’ve been laying a little low relaxing and playing. And I crammed in a lot of [...]
It’s almost Friday and I am ready! It’s been a busy week, except for the dogs. I can’t blame them, it rained most of today and I’d rather be balled up in a comfy couch blanket too. Instead I was craving a little comfort food for dinner after a busy work day. When I first [...]
After a fun and busy weekend, I wish I could stay home with these two this week! It hasn’t been easy to get back into work mode and healthy eating after the Easter weekend, especially with work stress and the massive amounts of leftover Easter candy people have been bringing into work. There are unopened [...]
I’m dragging this week feeling stressed at work and unmotivated to hit the gym and catch up on chores when I get home. Work has just been so busy and non-stop the last few weeks that I think it’s building up on me, I’m constantly in go-go-go mode trying to juggle a few things at [...]
