In a couple of previous posts, I mentioned that this year I would be celebrating my 50th birthday. And, tomorrow it's actually happening!!! Time. Damn, that's something that just continues to fly by huh? Five decades! And my first birthday in a long time without a dog. Honestly, I don't know what to do with myself. Some major life changes are happening but more on that in another post. For now, let's discuss the printable 50th Birthday coloring pages I created for December to celebrate 5 decades …

Birthday 2013 recap – vegan at Disneyland
Ok so since I last posted we've had birthday fun at Disneyland so I figured I should update with pics and details from that day. First up obviously the day started as most birthdays do with cards and presents. Bob and I don't really 'do' birthdays or christmas. We get stuff when we need it, but he did get me this tea pack from work. I've been big into herbal teas lately so it was nice to see he noticed :) It's the Mad Hatters Unbirthday tea! Funny little quips too. Very fun! After …
Bobs birthday – follow your heart, disneyland, california adventure, rainforest cafe
So as I mentioned already Wednesday was Bobs birthday! One thing we've done for a long time (almost the whole time we've been together) is to take the day off and just go out and DO something. Sometimes it's just going to our favorite restaurants, or shopping, but sometimes its a big bonanza day out. This year was a mix of all of them for a fun packed day! Warning: lost post, lots of pics :) We started the day with late breakfast as we'd been up late watching Lord of the Rings, then birthday …

Lessons from 2021 – the journey of one year
As I look back at 2021 all I can say is wow! What a journey. It had ups and downs, heartbreak and happiness, and tons of lessons learned. In the beginning of the year, I planned to do my usual New Years' post, sharing my word of the year. But for some reason, I just never got around to finishing the post. I shared it with my email list, but my word for 2021 was Journey. Looking back it's easy to see the journey unfold, like the story of a book. Truthfully, for most of 2021, the word I really …
Live in the Present Quote Coloring Page Printable
As we hurtle through the year and find ourselves in September I have to acknowledge that in just a few months I have a major milestone birthday. Over the years birthdays come and go but every 10 years we hit milestones. During this time it's easy to get caught up in thinking about bucket lists, looking to the future at life "running out". Admittedly, that was me at the beginning of the year. Then I found myself looking at the past, everything I had experienced so far in my time on the planet. …
10 Yoga Gifts Under $10 – Great Stocking Stuffers
Five years ago I shared Christmas Gift ideas for fitness lovers, whether you are a runner, swimmer, or yoga lover.

What I learned from 6 months of intermittent fasting
In 2019 I got sick. Twice. Like, had to take a week off work and couldn't move sick. After a few doctor visits, a specialist, a somatic movement educator, and some time I started to recover. This was life with Polycystic Kidney Disease. Previously I'd had very few symptoms, but they'd all come at once and hit me like a truck. I was quite literally K.O'd. While I was recovering I became aware of patterns of behavior I'd been oblivious too. Notably my lack of appetite. I realized, that for quite a …

Quick & Easy Recipe: Vegan Sausage Rolls
This recipe for Vegan Sausage Rolls is sponsored by CHEFMADE bakeware. Disclaimer: Links in this post may be affiliate links, meaning I earn a small commission on purchases made through those links. Memorial day was officially the start of BBQ season here in California, and so begins the usual Summer potlucks. More often than not these generally happen last minute and involve little preparation. In these situations I tend to whip up a batch of my Vegan Sausage Rolls. Not only are they quick …
Instant Pot Lentil Soup: Never eat the same soup twice
Recently the lovely folks at SlowFoodsUSA and Camellia teamed up with some of us Meatless Monday bloggers to create some recipes to promote plant-based foods and slow cooking. Unfortunately, my shipment got delayed and I didn't receive my package until the weekend of my birthday. One week before the holidays. No problem I thought, I can do a post over the holidays. After all, instant pot lentil soup makes itself! What I didn't bank on was the holiday house upheaval, and having no time to snap …
