Dinner in P-town

After a full day of driving (11 hours to be exact), Kyle and I arrived at our hotel in downtown Portland just after 5 pm.  He was ready to pass out, but I wasn’t going down without a fight workout and vegan meal in me first.

Red, white, and blue

Happy 4th everyone!  I’m currently in Las Vegas for my bachelorette party.  Keep me in your thoughts. If you want a real post, check out last year’s FOURTH of JULY post.  I made an amazing black bean burger.  This year, my only goal is survival.
