Random Catch Up

Kiki enjoying catnip!

Sprouts had Pacifica chapstick/lip balm on sale so I picked some up. I've been a fan of Pacifica products since before I was vegan! Their Tahitian Gardenia perfumes will forever be my favorite! The chapstick doesn't disappoint either. I'm currently using the rainbow watermelon(pink tube) and it's fruity and nice and keeps my lips soft. No easy feat in dry ass Utah!

This is a great, summery kombucha! The mango flavor is light, and sweet but not too sweet. I really, really love Brew Dr. kombucha!

The other morning I was craving a salad for breakfast so I tossed some romaine, garbanzo beans and green olives with Italian dressing and sunflower seeds. I felt really great starting my day this way.

The fact that I felt so great starting the day with a salad, plus the fact that it was a grey rainy day made me want to have some healthy lentil soup for dinner. It was also a great use for the handful of gluten free rotini I had. Why do I do that to myself with pasta? It's the equivalent of leaving a sip in the juice container!
I also had some gluten free toast with Miyoko's cashew butter. That stuff is out of this world!!

Last night I made sesame noodles from The Asian Vegan Kitchen by Hema Parakh. (Thanks Blake!) Served with baked tofu and some shredded cabbage mixed with a sesame vinaigrette. This was a super satisfying meal!

Since the pink sweater is the most valuable real estate in the place and Bubba gets left out, I added another sweater so he can be in the area. This is the closest to cuddling I'll probably ever see these two! If you notice, Kiki's ears are still on alert in case he thinks about making a move!
