Happy St. Patty’s Day! I don’t have any morning pics because my computer crashed AGAIN, so now it’s in the hands of the geek squad…more on that later though. Don’t worry, you didn’t miss much. I had the usual coffee and a piece of toast with Earth Balance (approx. a mountain of it). I felt a little guilty chugging coffee knowing I was heading to the dentist’s office in an hour, but I got over it pretty quick (once I realized exactly how scary the zombie-like alternative was). I’m proud to report my dentist’s appt… Read more >

back into the (vegan) swing of things…

I slept in like a mo-fo today.  Guess the day full of flying and the changes in time zones, etc. caught up to me, and I just needed to get in the zzzzz’s. I started the day like I always do..coffee and silk…while I opened my accumulated mail. Coupons, coupons, and and more coupons (and another wedding invitation). Then I got crackin’ on breakfast. I went old school with my oats.  Straight up.  Nothin’ fancy.  Sometimes I just crave the simple things in life. That held me over pretty well, but I may have had… Read more >

BWE (part 2)

Saturday I woke up extra early to let Mia in and shut her up continue my marathon uploading session of my parents cds to my iTunes (all the while cursing the times I clicked ignore when Apple told me to back up my music).  I got about 4 cds uploaded before my computer called it quits, which I took as a sign that I should get ready to go. My mom dropped me off at Elaine’s house (with my cute mini coffee mug in toe) and shortly after we all piled into 3 cars and… Read more >

BWE (part 1)

Could stand for several things…best weekend ever, perhaps?  Or Bachelorette Wino Elaine?  I don’t even know where to start after such a fun filled weekend.  Friday was my friend Elaine’s bridal shower followed by a weekend getaway in Calistoga for her bachelorette party.  They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are a few.  If you have no interest in the commentary, scroll away. After lunch on Friday I collected my energy and hit the road for a 1/4 marathon.  It was way more uphill running than I anticipated but I finished… Read more >
