  My breakfast was home-made bread (hence the poor slicing) with almond butter.  I used up almost the very last bit of it, so I decided to make another batch of nut butter.    This time with peanuts.  Roasted peanuts to be exact. Deep down I think Kyle prefers peanut butter to almond butter.  And we recently bought celery and Ritz crackers, which are two of his favorite things to pile with PB.    Honey roasted peanut butter.  Kissed with a touch of agave. I had to do some taste testing of the peanut butter,… Read more >

Get Your Good Going [giveaway]

There are certain morning rituals I have.  I set my clothes out the night before – the same way each time.  I also pack my lunch box the night before.  Every single day I work. When my alarm goes off, I never hit snooze, I get up and go.  Shower.  Scrubs.  ID badge.  Chapstick in my left pant pocket.  Pen in my right shirt pocket.  Coffee.  Breakfast.  Pills.  Off to the hospital. I park in the same spot.  I wait in the car until the same time.  And I sign up for the same break…. Read more >

Roasted nuts – brazil, pecans, cashews, almonds Basil Parsley Garlic infused olive oil Plain almond milk Nutritional yeast Sorry for the lack of measurements, but I was kinda playing mad chemist, throwing things in until I got the right amount. Unlike my previous pesto, this was a really thick one…. Read more >

Lake Almanor Weekend

This weekend Kyle and I flew/drove to Lake Almanor for a couples getaway.  Our friends have a baby on the way, so we were celebrating that – but instead of a girly shower with cheesy games we relaxed, drank and enjoyed our peaceful vacation with friends.    The hosts own an amazing cabin that I couldn’t even being to describe.  Not only does it have tons of bedrooms, a TV den and game room, a huge living room with an equally huge outside deck, a bocce ball court, horseshoe and corn hole set ups, and… Read more >

Crock-pot vegetarian chili

  Long overdue recipe coming ‘atcha.  Finally. This one couldn’t be easier guys.  No measurements required.  And it’ll be delicious.  Promise.  Here’s what I did.     1.
