This weekend Kyle and I flew/drove to Lake Almanor for a couples getaway. Our friends have a baby on the way, so we were celebrating that – but instead of a girly shower with cheesy games we relaxed, drank and enjoyed our peaceful vacation with friends. The hosts own an amazing cabin that I couldn’t even being to describe. Not only does it have tons of bedrooms, a TV den and game room, a huge living room with an equally huge outside deck, a bocce ball court, horseshoe and corn hole set ups, and… Read more >

I know I said I was heading out of town this weekend (I am), but I had to pop in to tell you two very awesome things. I have a new niece! Scarlett Alice was born in the wee early hours Friday morning. Isn’t she precious. :) I love her to pieces already. The second is considerably less thrilling to everyone else, but I was pleased nonetheless. This is my happy face after getting a call saying the unit was overstaffed for the night and I could have a holiday. Wee!! I was… Read more >

I had an awkward transition mid-week from a normal routine to a night shift routine. The first day is always awkward. I woke up at 7:30 and tried to go back to sleep but wasn’t successful in the least. At 8 I gave up and showered. And breakfasted. With toast and eggs x2. And iced tea with almond milk. It seems to be my summer breakfast of choice. Before yoga I had a banana. And then I got zen. Ommmmm. As per usual, I went to the WF across the street afterwards. Juice! I can’t… Read more >

This is a take on my previous manicotti recipe. Only better. Kyle called it the best I’ve ever made. I’d love to take all the credit, but I have a feeling the Sabra tuscan herb garden hummus played a large role too. To make the manicotti filling, I used the entire block of organic extra firm tofu, a heaping 1/2 cup of Sabra hummus, and 1/3 cup frozen spinach. I crumbled and mixed it all together with a fork (hello arm workout) until it resembled a ricotta cheese texture. Unlike last time, I opted… Read more >

My mom got into town late Wednesday night, so on Thursday we spent the day shopping, lunching, and shopping some more. We have both been to True Food Kitchen before. I started with The Natural which is one of the most insanely non-alcoholic delicious beverages. Ever. It’s ginger, agave, and soda. Mmmm… My mom got a lemonade. For our mains, we each got our own salad and then split the TLT. I’ve gotten the kale salad (with my same tweaks – no parmesan, add baked tofu) every time I’ve gone to True… Read more >
