Chocolate Chai Coconut Water Protein Shake Thing
Good morning, internet friends! I successfully got up and worked out this morning! Whew! It is seriously difficult to get up before 6 am. Okay, some days that’s near impossible too. But I’m thrilled I got up and got moving, and I mixed up this awesome drink (it was an experiment but it worked) for a…

Hearty Pasta + Sausage Stew
Guys, the work week is half over! 😉 Well, mine is. I sure hope yours is too or maybe you even have the whole week off! I am downright exhausted now. I was really psyched to try waking up early and doing my workout before work. I felt pretty tired early last night so I…

Not-So-Epic Storm + Quick Split Pea Soup
Good morning! I’m up and writing a quick post a la New Game Plan this morning 🙂 Yesterday we were supposed to have the most ragey rain (and wind) storm we’ve had here in six years. Considering we have a decent history of rain, that’s saying a lot. There were advisories, there were people racing…

Vanilla Spiced Pear Cocktail
Over the weekend, I had the BEST cocktail. I actually had no idea what I was ordering or what was in it, but still took on the challenge of remaking it 😉 I went out to Broderick’s Roadhouse with my family on Friday to try their vegan chef challenge menu. I actually ordered off their…
