Meat Alternative Approved
Morning!
As a picky veggie burger judge, I believe I have found a brand which gets two thumbs. Most veggie burgers from the grocery store in my opinion are nothing near as good to the ones found at say Busboys & Poets or Cafe Sunflower.
I decided to test my opinion and try Dr. Praeger’s California Veggie Burgers made from Carrots, Onions, String Beans, Oat Bran, Soybeans,...

Let there be light!
So as you can see in the photo below today’s post, I finally got a new lamp! I do not have an overhead light, so it has been rather dim in my room until now! How did I get to this point of owning a new lamp? Well…
After another glorious brunch at Busboys & Poets with Aline and Lindsey; Lindsey and I took a trip to the one and only…..Target! About 45 minutes later we left...

Im dreaming of.....
I’m dreaming of lots of pillows, butterflies, newton running shoes, dried figs, iced tea, la jolla in the summer, a deep tissue massage, smiling, walking in the warm rain, having a summer home in Italy, sun kissed skin, a new PR, going to culinary school, getting a German short-hair pointer, getting my PT license, opening my own business, freshly fallen snow, spending time with someone...

Buying in Bulk Has Its Perks!
Now for the rest of the weekend’s activities!
Yesterday I went to brunch with two of my best friends to our local favorite, the one and only, Busboys & Poets! You think we would get tired of it, but no that will probably never happen. Over an assortment of a vegan egg scramble, avocado sandwich, and a roasted turkey sandwich the three of us rehashed the previous nights events. After...

Houston 2012 Olympic Trials
Talk about motivation! The Houston 2012 Olympic Trials are underway right now and some of my running heros are in the top 5 both in the men’s and women’s race. I just wish there was a live stream online or NBC was showing it on TV right now! Just going to have to wait and watch it later : (, but for now I’m following #houston2012 on Twitter.
Runner nerd? Yes……!

Morning Roundup of Workouts
Happy Hump Day!
This week has been flying by way too fast, not that I am complaining or anything, but geeze it will be Friday before we know it!
One of my goals for 2012 is to update my blog on a daily basis with actual post, not just liking or re-posting someone else’s awesome recipe, favorite quote, etc… So far I am not doing so great at accomplishing my goal, but all of that is...

A Pink Sunset
The weather is a crazy thing, one day it is below 32F and the next its a beautiful 60F. Sound familiar? Well that is how it has been this past week. I was happy it had turned cold it was as though the weather had picked a side. Even though the weather was flip-flopping between hot and cold, I am not complaining it was 60F yesterday. 60F means perfect running weather in my book. I was so excited...

WatchHappy Friday!
This week the weather has been rather “chilly” and by “chilly” I really mean freezing! On Tuesday when I got up to go run, my thermometer read 29F. I bundled up before heading outside, but my ears were not covered enough. On Wednesday and Thursday, I decided to stick to indoor workouts until I bought a hat which covered my ears; no point in having my ears...

This broccoli salad is super easy to make and can be served as a vegan dish with a few substitutions. Not to mention, there is a lot of...
