Cover Mate

Nope, not an earth quake drill, just my intro to an AMAZING product that I recently became obsessed with.  CoverMate Food Covers are designed for covering food with specific design details that make them a dream tool in the kitchen. This giveaway post is for anyone who loves a hassle free shortcut – it’s for moms-on-the-go, students with no time, people with no kitchen space, and/or lazy chefs.  Or all of the above.  CoverMates are quicker, easier, and greener than saran wrap because you can use them, wash them, and reuse them…over and over again. … Read more >

Ready to pop?

Soda doesn’t have to be unhealthy.  It doesn’t have to contain aspartame.  It doesn’t have to contain corn syrup.  In fact, it can be calorie free, sweetened with the plant-based wonder ingredient (stevia), and STILL resemble your favorite pop. I’m no stranger to Zevia.  They hooked me up with their goods in the past, and now they are willing to do the same for YOU, my loyal readers.  My personal fave is Dr. Zevia, which takes my taste buds back to my college days nights of DDP fueled all-nighters.  While coffee provided (and still provides)… Read more >

Adding the “r”

On August 28th, 2010, I went from a Ms. to a Mrs.  It was the best day of my life.  I wish I could share each and every moment with you all.  Hell, I wish I could relive the entire weekend myself (it went by so fast!).  There were so many intimate moments that weren’t captured on film that I will have to imprint in my mind forever.  There were several times that I had to stop and remind myself that THIS. WAS. IT. This was the moment I had been planning for the past… Read more >

Return of the Mac

I have been working furiously (ok, that’s a lie, I’m really only at about 35%) for the past day and a half to try and get Windows on my MacBook…all for the glorious blogging tool that is Live Writer.  Success!  Finally!! (I hope?) Also successful was our first go at non-Starbucks coffee making.  New coffee maker.  New coffee.  New grinder. New start to the day. Just me and my java…and a long-overdue date with this months VegNews. Love.  It’s not Kauai, but whatcanyado. Before I get ahead of myself though, I want to make sure… Read more >

Reality check one, two

My laptop gathered quite a bit of dust this past week… After the most amazing wedding (a day that surpassed anything I could have even dreamed of), Kyle and I headed off to Kauai for a week in paradise.  We lounged by the pool. And the beach. Sipped tropical drinks.   And some of Hawaii’s finest brews. Got massages.  Hammock-ed.  Hiked.  And basked in all our newlywed glory.  Slowly but surely (Flashback Fridays anyone?) I’ll do my best to fill you in on the wedding and honeymoon details…or at least the G-rated parts.  For now,… Read more >
