whole foods

Reasons to love Roseville

A) They have a fabulous hospital. B) They have an even more fabulous Whole Foods. We have only been to Roseville twice before and both times were hospital related.  The first was P’s allergy incident and the second was a tour of the maternity floor, delivery rooms, etc (last week).  And both times we have hit up Whole Foods while there. Because WHY NOT!?!  It’s a brand new, super swanky, insanely massive store with everything.  I could spend hours roaming the aisles and that’s not an exaggeration.  Kyle has to reign me in when we… Read more >

My highlights: weeks 11 & 12

We finally have internet (FOURTH Comcast visit since moving…sooo…third time is not the charm).  Meaning this post is semi-current!  [Depeding on how long it takes me to write and publish] Where to begin!  It has certainly been a crazy April.  But I have to back up to the end of March first.  When we said goodbye to our (rental) house and moved 2 minutes south. We moved here when P was a mere 3 months old and now look at him!  Almost walking and ready to take the world by storm. I was in a… Read more >

This week past and future

Last I left off was my birthday dinner.  The next day we went to brunch at La Boulange.  Mine is the salad on the right.  Odd for a breakfast choice, but the taste buds wanted it. We hung around the house until my dad got home from work, then we walked to WF to grab sandos.   This is the crappy iPhone shot I got.  They were out of the Sonoma chik’n salad (which uses Beyond Meat), so I went with a basic vegetarian sando with the works.  Vegenaise and avo together are good stuff. … Read more >

I just can’t get enough

Maybe it’s just me, but I find it exciting seeing what new (to me) products are available in different areas.  I have been seriously enjoying browsing the shelves of our local co-op and grocery stores (Nugget, Whole Foods).  The prepared foods sections have all kinds of different stuff and there are tons of hippie friendly companies with local distribution!  I love it.  I’m sure it’ll eventually get old – or at least less wondrous – because I was just as enchanted when we first moved to Santa Monica and I had 6 Whole Foods stores… Read more >

Passport weekend

This is gonna be a long one, but I like recapping our little family weekends, so this is selfishly for my own (online?) memory. Friday morning I had my usual breakfast, toast with an egg.  Only I added something special, that I’ll review more thoroughly later on.   Hint: it’s the peanut butter.  After eating I spent the morning prepping for an interview.  I have mixed feelings about my timeline for going back to work and it’s a complicated issue that I’m not going to discuss on the blog.  Once I know what the plan… Read more >
