A few weekends ago I took a trip to New York City. I really wanted to visit my friend Mallorie's popup shop, and other than that, I basically just planned to eat my weight in delicious NYC food. When I got into the city, the first thing I did was head to a raw vegan … Continue reading NYC Weekend

My Raw Vegan Pilgrimage to Pure Food and Wine
I've been a fan of One Lucky Duck and Pure Food and Wine for years, ever since I discovered raw food-ism. There is a high-end, gourmet feel to their brand, and I think it's well deserved. I've ordered from the site and visited the takeout bar a bunch of times, but I finally made it … Continue reading My Raw Vegan Pilgrimage to Pure Food and Wine
Whole 30 Breakfast Ideas
Officially, my 30 days of the Whole 30 diet is up, but I plan on continuing it for the most part. This weekend we're having family over so I will taste everything I make (to make sure it tastes good!) but I really love how I've been feeling, so I think I will still mainly … Continue reading Whole 30 Breakfast Ideas
Whole 30 – Half Way Through – Thoughts
I had started one big mega post with the meals we've eaten, cost, thoughts, etc, but I think it'll be easier to break it down into seperate posts. This coming Thursday (2 days from now) will be the start of week 4. It's kind of crazy that time went so fast, but it also seems … Continue reading Whole 30 – Half Way Through – Thoughts
What I ate Wednesday on the Whole30
Today marks the first day of week 3 of my Whole30 trial. At first it seemed impossible and I definitely thought I was going to give up by the 2 week mark, but now that I'm in the swing of things, it's gotten a lot easier. These are my meals from yesterday (not included are … Continue reading What I ate Wednesday on the Whole30
NuZest Vegan Protein {Review}
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}
Whole30 Trial
Starting on Thursday, my husband and I will be doing a month of the Whole 30 diet. It's basically just eating really clean, whole foods for 30 days. There is a lot to it, some science, a lot of positive reviews, but really we're trying it as an elimination diet to see if anything specific … Continue reading Whole30 Trial
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
Weekly Workouts + Weekend Update
This past week started off pretty average, workout wise. I tried one of the new workouts that I pinned (Burn 100 calories in 10 minutes: Do this total body workout at home!) and was very underwhelmed. It was a decently tough workout, and I pushed hard, and only burned about 48 calories as per my … Continue reading Weekly Workouts + Weekend Update
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
