As I previously mentioned, Kyle and I were in Nor Cal (Elk Grove) for a family reunion this past weekend. It was for Kyle’s mom’s side of the family…and over 50 people (!!!) made the trek. Part of the reason I had been waiting to share my pregnancy on the blog was because we wanted to tell people in person at this reunion…and you know how once things leak online they make their way to facebook two seconds later and then the whole world knows (not that that’s a bad thing, we just wanted to… Read more >

Well, you guys have blown me away. The comments on this post literally brought tears to my eyes…I felt so much love. I want to say thank you to every single one of you who wished us congratulations (and I will get to it…). Obviously Kyle and I are beyond thrilled and it’s been sooo hard to keep this a secret (I’m shocked nobody was on to me earlier!). I will probably blog more about the earlier pregnancy stuff in time, but for now back to regular posting… *************** Since we were away this weekend… Read more >

What a weekend. It all started with a Friday wedding. Ok, actually it all started with a really awesome breakfast. Oats topped in a perfectly fried egg and avocado. Kyle came home from work early, so I got to eat lunch with him, which was a nice change in routine. I had Amy’s golden lentil soup. It was stellar! I have already gone to the store to get another can, that’s how much I loved it. I think this is now the best Amy’s soup I’ve ever tried. On the side I had carrots… Read more >

What. A. Breakfast. You’ve seen this before here. I live and die by this sauce. I had it with leftover pizza. Some dip pizza in ranch dressing…I go for creamy cashew dijon sauce. I was planning on grocery shopping in the afternoon, but the weather was too nice to ignore. You see, every once in a while, the coastal fog cooperates and I get gorgeousness on my days off. Which means, beach time! Don’t let the running shoes deceive you. This was a leisurely walk. For a July week day, the pier… Read more >

My AM meals were boring and hardly worth an explanation so I’ll get them out of the way quickly. Breakfast: Cascadian Farms’ multi grain squares + co-op bulk bins flakes & clusters cereal + nectarine + almond milk Lunch: leftover Caprese Caesar pasta salad (I added carrots and extra iceberg lettuce to bulk it up) [Unpictured snack: pretzels and hummus] [Lots] And now for dinner. We decided to do a pizza night, but we cheated a bit by using pre-made crusts. We decided to try Rustic Crust’s organic pizza crusts. One for each of… Read more >
