1. I don’t know what day it is today. We are finally home after over 45 hours of transport. Maybe 48 hours. I don’t know. All I know is I woke up at 6 am on Tuesday to catch our first flight in Uruguay and it’s currently Thursday in Uruguay. You do the math. I’m obviously in no condition to add. 2. One of our layovers was 12 hours long. Yikes. 3. I just got back from a run. Yes. Given the previous two points, some may call me crazy. Some may be right. … Read more >
I haven’t bought quinoa yet because it’s SO expensive at New Seasons and Trader Joes – where do you get yours? I get it at Costco or Whole Foods. It’s pretty inexpensive in the bulk bins aisle. If you don’t have either of these stores near you, you may want to check online. Amazon sells everything and places like nutsonline or Bob’s Red Mill also have good deals. I pay a bit more for organic quinoa, but that’s your call. Using the rice cooker, do you just hit the white rice button and wait for… Read more >
Last I left off, we were enjoying some down time back at the hotel. Madrid isn’t that big – we ran into Ethel and Alene as they returned from Toledo. This gave us some time to plan out our evening.

After a round of beer (and some salty nuts) we said goodbye to Ethel (who left us for a hot date) and we walked around the corner to a vegan friendly restaurant called Yerbabuena…. Read more >

This is why I do so much food prep (because there’s nothing more annoying than being starving and staring into an empty fridge). My essentials include greens and cooked grains. You can doctor those up in combination in so many ways. So whether I’m tossing quinoa, kale and sweet potatoes with a nutty sauce and crushed peanuts…or mixing swiss chard with a soy… Read more >

After 8 months and 30 (ish?) countries, my sister is officially back in The States. Her luggage isn’t, but that’s a different issue. I hadn’t actually touched base with her over the phone since mid-October, so it was nice to finally hear her voice again. Of course within 10 minutes of catching up, she told me some things she thought I needed to work on blog-wise. Ummm…thanks for the input Laura. ;) So this post is for her. There will be no recipes. Instead, I’ll share some of the other more random things that I’m… Read more >
