What a weekend. It all started with a Friday wedding. Ok, actually it all started with a really awesome breakfast. Oats topped in a perfectly fried egg and avocado. Kyle came home from work early, so I got to eat lunch with him, which was a nice change in routine. I had Amy’s golden lentil soup. It was stellar! I have already gone to the store to get another can, that’s how much I loved it. I think this is now the best Amy’s soup I’ve ever tried. On the side I had carrots… Read more >

Here are some products I’ve tried lately. Some were bad, some were okay, some were good, and some were awesome. So I figured I’d share. I have no affiliation with any of these companies. These are simply my honest opinions. 1. Choc & Nut spread. This is a vegan version of Nutella. I first came upon this French company at Expo West and after one bite I was hooked. It tastes heavenly – chocolate & hazelnut in a creamy smooth buttery spread. I found it at my local Co-Op and it’s not cheap. $10 for… Read more >

Last week our casa was on the FedEx circuit nearly every day. Aside from Kyle’s latest set of course readers, most of the packages we got were fun, foodie filled items. The one I was especially eager to try was from Lundberg Farms. I’ve been a fan for a while (love their GF couscous and rice cakes). Because they are a family owned and operated company, they’re able to ensure the quality of their products is top notch. They recently partnered up with Stonehouse 27, a newer company that specializes in rich sauces, full… Read more >

This past weekend was faaaaantastic. On Friday I luxxe-ed it up with my bestie, Jess, visiting from NYC. I adore Caffe Luxxe, and Jess and I have identical tastes in everything (with the most important relevant being food), so obviously I had to share the pretty soy latte art with her. This is hers before she ruined it. And here she is while ruining it. 😉 Love this girl. I got a cafe au lait with soy milk, which I messed up very slightly by adding two packets of raw sugar (still going strong with… Read more >

In New York, I was a NYRR member. I ran almost every 10K during the two month period of decent weather (if I wasn’t working), and a few half marathons too. Truthfully, I think I could run Central Park with my eyes closed. Moving to California was a breath of fresh air in the running department. The weather is rarely an obstacle and (as I’ve already shared) the scenery is exceptional. However, I do miss the excitement of races. I’ve been keeping my eye out for local running events, but my schedule is friggin’ packed… Read more >
