Check out my dinner! Vegan waffles made from scratch :) The recipe is so hearty and delicious (and also top secret), you may or may not recall why…but I’ll get back to that later. For now, breakfast. I suppose this could be seen as a parfait of sorts. On the bottom: pumpkin oats with 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup whole rolled oats, NuNaturals liquid stevia, and Tropical Traditions shredded coconut. On the top: vanilla greek yogurt sprinkled with cinnamon. I managed to take a picture of my snack, too. I pretty much eat… Read more >

Moving back to CA, one of the things I was most looking forward to was having a balcony. A balcony allows me to have two very important things: 1) a BBQ 2) a garden Ok, it’s not quite a garden, yet. But it’s getting there… As an early birthday present from my in-laws, I got organic rosemary, basil, and thyme to give my green thumb a jump start. Since it was raining the other day, I was in a zen kind of mood. I blasted classical music on the iHome and got to work repotting… Read more >

Warning: I’ve fallen in love with soaking. I may never cook again. Ok, that’s not true, but I don’t think it’s possible to find an easier grain to prep than wheat berries. First of all, they are so freakin’ cheap. How can you resist a meal that’s main component is under a dollar. Not to mention how good for you they are, too! Unlike refined wheat (a process in which the germ and bran layers are removed), wheat berries maintain all three of their parts (the germ/seed, the bran, and the endosperm).

It’s 9/29! You didn’t think I’d forget National Coffee Day did you!?!? Not a chance. I’m a tad behind in blogging because I’ve been playing catch-up around the casa. I’ve been productive, but I hardly deserve a pat on the back since it’s all stuff that I should have accomplished last weekend.

Tuesday I got my running mojo back and after this bowl of deliciousness had digested I set off for a nice 30 minutes… Read more >

A few quick things: 1) I’m glad you enjoyed the wedding recap. The final installment is under way and should be ready soon. 2) My weekend was a disaster scene. It started with Friday night and ended with Friday night. I did learn an important lesson, though. I’m not 21 years old anymore, and therefore, I’m not immune to hangovers. 3) This post is going to be highly incomplete because certain photos make me nauseous. For instance, the below. I love the 80’s? Who remembers Double Dare? I had a partner in crime of… Read more >
