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. [...]
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 [...]
This has been a strange week at work with announcements of possibly big changes ahead in our department and plenty of work. Sleep has not been super easy with so much on my mind and I get a little cranky when I’m tired. I understood road rage a lot more this morning when a teenager [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Oh Monday, why are you back so soon? Saturday was very productive knocking out chores and house projects. Hubby cleaned out and re-organized the pantry and I did tons of laundry – including washing Miko’s favorite stuffed snowman toy. Poor guy has been carefully protecting it since so I won’t take it away again. Sunday [...]
Today was a wonderfully calm day, perfect after a busy week. We had no specific plans, just went with it. Some of the highlights: 1. I finished watching Hungry For Change, an interesting documentary about the effects of processed food and chemicals on our health. Overall it was a good documentary with lots of information [...]
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 [...]
Wow, this long weekend is buzzing by, very thankful to have today off work too! So far it’s been a pretty quiet weekend at home catching up on house projects, lots of laundry, grocery shopping, and other unexciting, pedestrian chores. Great to get those caught up on for sure, but I’m hoping to get out [...]
Hi and, wow, it’s Tuesday already? The last few days have been a blur, poor hubby is still sick with the flu, 4 days now with a fever – poor guy! And work has been stressful with lots going on. I’ve been racing around the house sterilizing everything, washing bed sheets daily, preparing meals for [...]
Happy Super Bowl Sunday, hope your plans for the big day are for fun and great, healthy food. Ours are up in the air since poor hubby arrived home from his week of business travel with flu symptoms running a fever all of yesterday, coughing, and no energy. Miko, with his dirty toy, has been a [...]
I took today and tomorrow off work to have a little down time at home and it’s been fabulous! I spent a good part of today cleaning and organizing the house which seems crazy on a day off, but the feeling that the house is more under control is worth it. The day started early [...]
It’s Friday Eve and that’s all right with me, especially in front of a 3 day weekend. It’s been a busy week and I’ve been in my usual rut of a smoothie for breakfast and packed salad for lunch. With a splurge lunch run to Baagan for a huge kale citrus salad with hubby today. [...]
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 [...]
