Like many people, when I think of Barnes & Noble, I think of books. When it comes to their food, I’ve been known to enjoy a latte or a cookie, but not much more… until now. Last weekend my husband and I went to the Palladio at Broadstone to check out The Kitchen, a beautiful… Continue reading kitchen at palladio
tofu marinade | Beerenberg Sauces
A lot of people ask how I can eat tofu. But a much better question is how do you marinade tofu? That’s because eating tofu is easy. Whether you like it or not has everything to do with how you cook and flavor it. And of course, this is something that is totally within your… Continue reading tofu marinade | Beerenberg Sauces
Triathlon Training Sacramento
Recently I wrote a piece for Comstock’s Magazine titled “Sacramento Businesses Join Forces to Train New Triathletes“. While researching the piece, I had the opportunity to speak with many of the amazing people that make up the Triathlon Training Sacramento community. For those that live in the region and are interested in getting into the… Continue reading Triathlon Training Sacramento
30 day vegan diet
My husband Rob and I just wrapped up 30 day vegan diet. That’s right, the month of March we cut out all animal products. No meat. No dairy. Over the past few weeks, I’ve done a few posts on how things were going. Someday soon, my husband plans to write a post about his experience because it… Continue reading 30 day vegan diet
Sacramento Food Film Festival
The Sacramento Food Film Festival is almost here! For those people who love food and movies (really who doesn’t??), it’s the perfect combo. The dates for the 2018 festival are April 14th and April 21st. There is also the Opening Night Film Screening on April 11th, but that has already sold out (as I mentioned,… Continue reading Sacramento Food Film Festival
Plant Based Diet for Beginners
Plant based diet for beginners, like the one my husband and I have been doing, can be a little tricky. What can you eat other than fruits and veggies? How do you cut out dairy? The whole concept can be a little overwhelming. I’m in the midst of sorting it all out, principally because my husband and… Continue reading Plant Based Diet for Beginners
Plant-based Diet
What is it like to go on a plant-based diet for a month? Well, I’m in the middle of that very experiment right now. On March 1, my husband and I decided to give this whole plant-based thing a go. And right off the bat, you’ll notice I said plant-based, not vegan. The difference? Nothing… Continue reading Plant-based Diet
Delray Beach Vacation
Last week my husband and I spent a few beautiful days in Delray Beach, Florida. My aunt and cousin live there and the highlight of the trip was definitely the quality family time with them. However, if you’re ever interested in a vacation to the Delray Beach and West Palm Beach area, I wanted to… Continue reading Delray Beach Vacation
Triathlete Scared of the Bike
I’ve been hiding a bit of issue. I’m a triathlete scared of the bike. First, let me back up. Last May, with no experience of riding a road bike, I signed up for a triathlon. No problem I thought. I’m a regular at spin class, how hard can it be? Well, I found out it… Continue reading Triathlete Scared of the Bike
Punch Bowl Social Sacramento
Punch Bowl Social Sacramento has so much more than amazing food. Recently I checked out this restaurant/bar/bowling alley/billiards/gaming mecca. First off, if location is everything, this place is gold. It’s within the Sawyer Hotel building and an anchor restaurant in DOCO. For those not familiar, DOCO, stands for Downtown Commons. It’s the area surrounding the Golden… Continue reading Punch Bowl Social Sacramento
