Drench our hair, but don’t dampen our spirits

You know how visitors make you a tourist in your own city?  Well, I had an absolute ball of a time in NYC while my baby sis, Marie, was in town. The weather wasn’t too cooperative, but we made do.  After our late Thursday night out on the town, we slept in a bit (well, it was sleeping in for me…Marie, not so much).  While Kyle was at work, Marie and I shopped it up in SoHo, then stopped for a mid-day snack at Dean & Deluca.    All the fresh, colorful produce just makes… Read more >

One year old.

Wow.  Time flies when you’re having fun blogging about it.  It feels like just yesterday I stumbled across this amazing community of foodies and decided to begin a blog about my adventures in the vegan kitchen.  Who would have known the decision to write (almost daily) about my food/exercise/etc would have impacted my life the way it has?  I certainly did not.

Travel Thursday and Treats

Wahoooo!  Going home today 🙂 That’s right, I’m headed back to Nor Cal for another wedding.  I’m so excited to see my friends and my family, but MOST of all, to go look at wedding sites.  The last few weeks Kyle and I have been doing research AROUND THE CLOCK.  I think we have seen every single wedding site in Northern California…and still haven’t found THE ONE, although we have narrowed it down to about 10 or so.  Wine country, Lake Tahoe, East Bay, San Francisco…(??) God only knows at this point.   I did… Read more >
