So I’ve been thinking. At first I was going to maybe update my “about me” section, but it’s hard to write about yourself out of the blue without any prompts. So then I figured why not just ask you guys what you want to know. I’m fairly open about my life on my blog, but who doesn’t like a good Q&A sesh, right? Feel free to hit me up with questions and I’ll compose a post with the answers in a few days when I get back to normal after my West Coast holiday. It’ll… Read more >
A few days ago I got a wonderful surprise on my doorstep from Nicole of Bora Bora Organic Foods.

Tuesday marked my return to work. I didn’t miss it, but I like my job, so I wasn’t too bummed about getting back into it. However, by 8 am, I was ready to take that all back. HA! My pre-packed work eats included: protein pretz, dried mango, dried papaya, salad, tea, apple, Mocha-walla Odwalla bar, Spiced Pumpkin Pie Clif bar, and dark chocolate covered cocoa roasted almonds. This salad wasn’t one of my finest creations considering all the prep I had done the day before. The chickpeas and BN squash were great, but I forgot… Read more >
Whew! There sure is a LOT to do and see in our nation’s capital… I will tell you all about my fun, tourism-packed weekend in D.C. but first I believe I have some business to take care of. Congrats to reader Olivia, who will soon be the lucky owner of some yummy vegan baked treats (made by yours truly) AND a bottle of Xagave’s agave syrup!! Her guess as to what place I finished was one of the closer ones, but was still fairly far off. Props to those of you who guessed in the… Read more >
