Vegan on the Run!

One of the things I have to keep reminding myself is that while something may be vegan, that does not mean that it is healthy. Last night we had everyone over and made pasta and played monopoly! It was a wonderful evening, but at the end Michael opened up some of our dark chocolate barsContinue reading “Vegan on the Run!”

Let Them Eat Cake!

It took all of my will power last night not to stick my finger in the frosting of a cake. I don’t really even like cake. In fact, if you put a vanilla cake with vanilla icing in front of me a month ago, I would have said “no, thank you.” Chocolate cake is aContinue reading “Let Them Eat Cake!”

Namaste – The Powerful Benefits of Yoga

Why You Should Do Yoga

I have never been the most flexible person. In fact, I played volleyball in high school and I was constantly injured so I spent a lot of time in the training room, which means a lot of time on ice, heat, STEM, and stretch, and I was SO un-flexible that we celebrated any time myContinue reading “Why You Should Do Yoga”

Where Do You Get Your News?

Every morning I wake up and lay in bed to find out what is happening in the world. My go-to is usually the New York Times since I have the app and subscription on my phone. I love the Times! But, it can be a little long if I don’t have a lot of time.Continue reading “Where Do You Get Your News?”

Organic Co-Op

So today is hump-day! Time for an update! I have held true to my elimination of refined sugar from my diet! I had a dinner party Tuesday night for Turner Inn (law school inn of court) and they served Big Truck Taco, which meat-eating Caitlin wasn’t really a fan of anyway, but everyone loved it.Continue reading “Organic Co-Op”

Getting Mail

I arrive home from school today to find a package from my Grammy! I was so excited 🙂 inside? Cookies. And they look delicious! She is so sweet! I called to thank her, and she said now you can eat cookies and get fat. My thoughts exactly! So, as I throw my black bean burgerContinue reading “Getting Mail”

Vegan Cupcakes

I found this on Pinterest, but it linked to a german site, so I had to translate! I wanted to keep it so I could try to make them, thus you also get the recipe! “Today’s cupcakes are so 🙂 4-5 tart you need – 2 bananas – 750ml blueberries – AContinue reading “Vegan Cupcakes”

Yoga

Vinyasa It is time to pick up yoga again! Today’s 5:30 Vinyasa class was wonderful! I love my yoga studio. I took a few weeks off yoga when school started but it’s time to go back. My back started to hurt, my wrists started to hurt, and my fat cells grew; so at least fourContinue reading “Yoga”

Skinny Bitch – Week Two

Well, today is Sunday, and I made it through the week! Excluding a bite of chicken nachos and that corn dog from the Mumford & Sons concert (which I cannot honestly say with 100% certainty that it contained meat) I have followed a vegetarian diet this week. It’s okay to tell my dad now, heContinue reading “Skinny Bitch – Week Two”
