Farm Sanctuary Brunch

IMG_1166

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 [...]

Weekend List

IMG_1056

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, [...]

Play Days and Curry Apple Dressing

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 [...]

Bonfire Party with Pickle BBQ Sandwiches

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 [...]

Weekend Random

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 [...]

Photo Friday

lunch

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 [...]

Very happy the weekend is here and we’re not getting short-changed an hour for this one! After a draining week, I have a long list of things I want to catch up on today from finally doing my hair roots, garden work, laundry, and updating music play lists. I did finally make it to Costco [...]

Weekend of Splurge

wflunch

What a dirty trick spring forward is! I woke up early this morning thinking I had time for a long run and to touch up my hair roots before church, then realized we lost an hour. Ugh! Oh well, it’s been a great weekend so far and kind of nice to disconnect a little after [...]

Bye Bye Week

IMG_9340

Finally the weekend is here, for a 4-day work week – it felt a lot longer. Actually the busy days flew by, but I felt like mush at the end of them with so many projects going on at my job currently. My sweet hubby made me this cute Grumpy Cat 3D paper meme to [...]

Finally the Weekend

sushi

The long weekend in finally here, woohoo! I am celebrating after this week, it was insane at work with project stress and co-worker drama. The last two days have been a blur here with Valentine’s Day fun and work, but here we go! I finally set up a YouTube profile with a whopping one video [...]

Sacramento VegFest 2013

packedfest

Saturday flew by too fast even though I was up at the crack of dawn drinking a smoothie and reading online. One of my goals for 2013 is to wake up earlier to have more time in the mornings for blogging and other online tasks. And maybe try working out before work again eventually, but [...]

Long Weekend Love

IMG_8972

It is so nice to have today off work. While it’s been a great weekend, it’s also been packed with activities, so I’m thankful to have today to catch up on house stuff and get in a long run. I finished watching another documentary on Netflix, Happy, and really enjoyed it. It takes a look [...]

Super Saturday

lunch

It’s been a chilly day, just 25 degrees this morning and my poor garden was covered in frost. It was a wonderfully relaxing morning cuddling with warm dogs, drinking coffee, and starting the day with a huge green smoothie and a good workout. I’ve been having fun watching documentaries on Netflix during home workouts lately. [...]

Long Short Week

lunch

Happy Saturday! For a short week at work, it felt long after working a full day on New Year’s Eve and spending most of New Year’s Day working on the house. But glad we got a lot accomplished and feeling productive is a great way to start the new year. And this weekend is already [...]

Creamy Carrot Noodle Salad

IMG_8763

Wait, how is it Sunday night already? Another weekend vanished too quickly! Keeping my fingers crossed that it’ll be a quieter week at work with the New Year’s mini break, we’ll see. We got a bunch of organic beets in our farm box this week and, due to lack of creativity, I decided to throw [...]
