And all that mushy LOVE stuff. Right? š Truth be told, Iām pretty neutral on the whole Valentineās thingā¦love it, hate it, love to hate it, whatever! I think itās clichĆ© either way you look at it. Side note: I used to think Valentineās was so lame, so for the first two years that Kyle and I were dating I wouldnāt go out with him on the 14th because I just felt so hypocritical changing my tune once I had a BF. This year, I consciously requested the day off of work, but I still… Read more >

ā¦and a dollar letter short. Iāll be back with the alphebruary eats later (g and h happened but my energy needs to be higher to share the deets). Work eats, however, donāt call for much brain power. Iām not saying they were mindlessly dullā¦but I kinda am ;) Kidding! [But they were VERY similar] Iāve been on a fruity tooty kick lately. Starting the day with water, Jillian, coffee, coffee, and fruit, fruit, fruit. Because itās sunny and Iām downing fresh strawberries and blueberries constantly, I feel like next week should be the 4th of… Read more >

I’ve shown you the d & e meals, but Superbowl Sunday was definitely the highlight. PACKERS what whaaaat! Friday morning started with an early breakfast for me. I was up and at āem with the sun garbage trucks (which was fine since I had fallen asleep at 7:30 the night before). I made myself a warm bowl of oats and buckwheat. … Read more >

Last night I went to bed at 7:45. Yeah. Guess my body was trying to tell me something, huh? I just went with it. I had ādinnerā at 5, just after posting about my cashew cheese. For those who asked, hereās the recipe I used. [Itās a combination of a few Iāve seen throughout the blog world and my RFD cookbook] Vegan cashew ācheeseā Ingredients: 1 1/4 cup raw cashews (I soaked mine before) 1 tbsp garlic powder 1 tbsp onion powder 1 lemon, juiced (approx. 2-3 tbsp) 2 tbsp nutritional yeast 1/2 large orange… Read more >

Curious about day 3 of alphebruary? Hereās a teaser. But before I get into that, I wanted to hear peopleās thoughts on the way Oprah discussed veganism on a recent episode of her show. I was talking whining about it to my mom yesterday and she brought up some good points. So, Iām not going to be the bitter vegan that brings up all the issues I had with it because after some consideration, Iām just happy veganism is getting the spotlight at all (regardless of the reasons The Big O is choosing to showcase… Read more >
