The Reluctant Vegetarian

Tomorrow Is Another Day

thank goodness for that. i am happy to say that the case of the cranks i had yesterday has gone away and i am feeling quite a bit better. yes, i still have the unsightly red bumps and a bit of a lingering frustration about the state of my intolerances. but otherwise, i’m back to [...]

Cranky…

Destination: Sedona

the hubster and i went to sedona with my parents for a nice overnight visit. to say that it was an awesome experience is certainly an understatement. for those that have been there, i’m sure you can understand what i mean by that. we took a scenic drive from phoenix through jerome and then to [...]

True Food = True Love
