Lots of fun at the Minnesota State Fair this year, and LOTS of yummy vegan food! I would have tried more, but as you can see I ate plenty. I even saved room for dessert which almost never happens. We had a perfect day for walking around and stayed for around six hours. The weather…
We had a lovely time at the St. Paul Food Truck Festival in Mears Park this past August. We usually go to the one in Uptown which is much bigger and has a lot more vegan options, but summer got away from us this year so we headed to this smaller festival. It was actually…
We had an absolutely AMAZING lunch at The Naughty Greek in St. Paul. I marked all of the photos above so you can see the vegan options. I included my daughter Gracie’s salad because any salad can be made vegan at The Naughty Greek. Gracie’s salad was pictured with the feta added. I adore the…
This sandwich was truly amazing and one of the first treats I enjoyed as a new vegan at last year’s Uptown Food Truck Festival! LOVE this sandwich, and I’m pretty sure you can order something similar at Herbivorous Butcher’s brick and mortar location. We adore Hola Arepa and make treks to the cities so we…
Hello, Friends! I’m finally sharing a blog post. Can ya believe it? After almost a month of silence. I think that’s a record for me. My computer hard drive decided to self destruct, so we had to replace it and then deal with my massive pile of photos. It’s amazing how annoying and inconvenient technology…
Wow! We have been so darn busy! All good stuff, so I’m not complaining, but it always surprises me how much busier the warm months are around here. My daughter, Grace, graduated from high school this month, we celebrated Mother’s Day, my birthday, and Father’s Day, I attended my grand girls’ school picnics, and we…
Over the last few months I’ve gone through a sort of renewal in my personal life that’s hard to explain. Like I’m waking up. Without getting to philosophical (and weird) I guess I’ll just say that it all started when I gave up meat. I swear I won’t get “preachy” about how much this has…
We enjoyed two snow days in a row. The weather man said to not venture out unless completely necessary, so we stayed in our jammies, lit candles, drank tea, watched movies, baked danish, and made soup with dumplings. Ahhhhh… We love snow days! Last night we had our grandgirl, Madeline May, over for a slumber…
We’ve been thoroughly enjoying our weekends this winter. Outings to favorite restaurants almost feel like mini vacations when the cold weather has it’s grip on Minnesota. I took some quick photos while we were out, in case you may be in the area and looking for places to enjoy a good cup of coffee,…
Our annual vacation to the “North Coast” was amazing, and relaxing, and beautiful. We love welcoming the school year with one last hurrah, and Lake Superior is a great way to do that. I’ve spoken of our “Up North” getaways on several previous blog posts. If you want to see them, just do a quick…
