I'm a bit of a sucker for vegan protein powders. I started with whey (yuck) before I was vegan because I thought I needed more protein and kind of fell for the "healthy" marketing. Now, I realize that I get enough protein in my regular diet, but I like to make shakes for breakfast because they're … Continue reading NuZest Vegan Protein {Review}

Weekend Update: Birthday Edition
Saturday was my birthday and yesterday was my government birthday*. The celebrations started on Thursday with a trip to Vegan Treats in Bethlehem, about 2 hours away. We got a chocolate encased chocolate chip cheesecake on a stick, a soft serve ice cream cone, 2 cannolis to take home, and a cannoli cake for Saturday. … Continue reading Weekend Update: Birthday Edition
Avocado Creations on Etsy
I've been wanting to get a cloth wallet for a while to replace my $10 faux leather one that I've had for years. It's not a cute, purposely vegan wallet, it was just the cheapest one I could find when my last one fell apart. Even though it's not real leather, I've been wanting a … Continue reading Avocado Creations on Etsy
DC Vegfest 2014
This past Saturday was the DC Vegfest sponsored by Compassion Over Killing. I only realized it the Monday before, so it was a wonderful surprise and a totally spur of the moment trip. The day was a total blast and even though it was a bit hot, the weather was beautiful. It's been announced that there … Continue reading DC Vegfest 2014

Bethlehem VegFest 2014
It's been a week since this year's Bethlehem VegFest and I'm already excited about next year. Just like last year, being in a place where you know everything is vegan and nothing is off limits is an amazing feeling. There was no walking around looking for a place that sold only salads or veggies, or possibly a … Continue reading Bethlehem VegFest 2014
Review: Montagne Jeunesse Face Masks
I've been searching for the past 9 months, since we bought our house, for a skin care routine that will help all the breakouts I've been getting from our hard water. I've tried a million (slight exaggeration) different things, all with varying degrees of effectiveness. Montagne Jeunesse sent me a few of these face masks to try, and … Continue reading Review: Montagne Jeunesse Face Masks
Vitacost Haul
This is only my second order from Vitacost, so I won't say I'm obsessed yet, but I love the huge selection of beauty products. I'd say they have a bigger selection and cheaper prices than Amazon when it comes to natural hair care and makeup products. I have a recurring order of vitamins for everyone. … Continue reading Vitacost Haul
My First Experience With Online Grocery Shopping
Yesterday, I tried out the online grocery shopping from Giant though Peapod. There are a bunch of things I really liked about it and a few things that make me reconsider using it regularly. First thing I saw when I logged on what my most recent/common purchases. Pros: Convenience. I love the online interface. It's … Continue reading My First Experience With Online Grocery Shopping
Review: p90x3…5 Weeks Down
So I officially have completed 5 weeks of p90x3, and I really like it. I'm following the lean schedule and I've done all of the workouts. I didn't use any of the built in rest days, but I did skip a few days when I had a headache, and when my parents came to visit … Continue reading Review: p90x3…5 Weeks Down
