Hello hello, and aren’t we in the thick of it? A few nights into Hanukkah, yesterday was Solstice, and tomorrow is Christmas Eve. Wherever you are, I hope that you’re celebrating and spending time with the people that you love!

And now, because isn’t there just so much to be thankful for? Le Love List!
1. Taking Care Of My Family
I spent every night this week staying up laaaate, wrapping presents. (It’s so strange how every day, I do things that my own parents did for me, but for some reason, being on “the other side of the Christmas tree”, makes me feel like *such* a parent, know what I mean?) Anyway, I spent a lot of hours lovingly packaging gifts, getting super creative, determined not to purchase any wrapping products. Re-using and repurposing for the win!
On Friday I made the dogs a big batch of Christmas treats. Tonight I cooked a vegan feast for all my in-laws, and everyone loved it.
These little acts, so very simple, fill me up with so much love. Yay holidays!
2. Daydreaming of Tropical Vacations
Hawaii in January for my birthday? Perhaps? Or Merida in February? Why not?
Damian and I have been scheming and dreaming and looking up flights for a little winter getaway. Okay, so it probably won’t happen. But that’s okay – sometimes the imaging is enough!
3. This Video.
Not safe for work. From Funny Or Die – and definitely funny!

We’re into the heart of winter now, where my body begins to ask for warm, hearty, rich and filling foods. And I’m listening! Because my body’s pretty good at knowing what’s up. This day tasted gooOOOoood. And it looked like this: Coffee and Baby Breakfast Tis the season for a Christmas cup! French roast, stevia, [...]
A few months back, Damian and I were talking about the concept of “last meals”. If you were on death row, what would you choose for your final supper? It’s a tough question! I was super stumped for the longest time, days actually, but I was having fun pondering. I would think of a food, [...]
New favorite toy: menorah, er, “mah nee nee” // New favorite dinner: matzo ball soup! Oi there, hello my dears! Another week has come and gone and we roll ever onward into this holiday season. I’m so excited! Everything’s stacked on top of each other this year, just BAM! BAM! BAM! one after another. Hanukkah, [...]
This WIAW was supposed to be extra awesome. A deviation from my normal weekday offerings, I was all set to show you guys my glorious, gluttonous Sunday. See, I don’t *always* eat super-clean. Always vegan? Yes. But always healthy? Well . . . I guess that depends on your definition! Anyway, I’d intended to showcase [...]
