It’s no wonder people are scared of their significant other’s parents; with movies like Meet the Parents, in-laws get a pretty bad rap. Fortunately for me, this stereotype couldn’t be further from the truth. I just got back from a weekend+ getaway with Kyle’s family and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be joining his family than if they were the sole heirs to the Whole Foods chain. Not only are they amazingly accepting of my vegan lifestyle, but they go above and beyond to accommodate it, to the point of straight up spoiling me!… Read more >

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 >

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving! Quite frankly, I delayed writing this post because I felt like everyone else’s thanksgiving eats were way more blog-worthy (and there were a LOT of them). Plus, I didn’t get home from work until after 8 pm and all I wanted to do at that point was put on my PJs, watch football (slash Home Alone), and stuff my face (not in that order). On a holiday such as this, it would feel weird to eat before giving thanks, and so I feel as though I should acknowledge what I’m grateful for… Read more >

A few days ago I got a wonderful surprise on my doorstep from Nicole of Bora Bora Organic Foods.

Their bars are: USDA Certified Organic No Refined Sugars No Preservatives Gluten Free Non GMO Non Dairy Vegan Kosher Zero Trans-Fats No Soy Ummm, sign me up! What cute packaging! In addition to the t-shirt, temporary tattoos, and tiki mug, the package included four bars: Tiki Blueberry Flax, Tribal Cinnamon Oatmeal, Island… Read more >

This morning’s subway commute was eerily empty. It always creeps me out a bit when there is nobody else in the car with me. But then, I guess it’s better than being packed in the train like a can of sardines… Munchables for the day: Apple, dried papaya/pears, 365 spelt pretzels, PB&J dipped MoJo bar, Honey Graham Z bar, and un ensalada enorme. Work was nice and slow. Happiness! I love it when I get a full hour lunch break. I enjoyed each and every bite of my packed eats. I even got off work… Read more >
