Cauliflower Tabbouleh Salad [Recipe]

May 6, 2016 By Laura

I have a thing for tabbouleh.

A thing I didn’t realize until I began to write this post.

Cauliflower rice has been a thing for a long time. I’ve been replacing the bulgur in tabbouleh for a long time. Therefore, it was only a matter of time until – strangely enough – I decided Cauliflower Tabbouleh needed to happen.

Despite the fact that I have have three other tabbouleh recipes on this blog – Quinoa Tabbouleh, Tofu Tabbouleh, and Tabbouleh Pasta – I really don’t eat it that often. Not that it isn’t good… I really love it. I just get lazy. However, this is the easiest tabbouleh hack yet. And it’s good. Strange, but good.

Purple Hair and the Move [WIAW]

May 4, 2016 By Laura

♪ Purple hair, purple hair… ♫

The Prince tribute was just a coincidence.

Remember the mermaid hair? I think Im even more obsessed with this color.

I cannot pass a mirror without staring. Vegas keeps saying “did you know your hair is purple?!” and “I married a unicorn!” She loves it. ~~I think.~~

Super-Easy Taco Tuesday + WIAW

April 27, 2016 By Laura

Moving is never easy.

Even when it’s just down the street.

We don’t have an exact date… but hopefully we’ll start moving tomorrow. We have a metric a$$ ton of glassware that I just flat out don’t want to pack. Boxes are beginning to be labeled like this:

10 Random Products I Love

April 25, 2016 By Laura

I’m a passionate of user of very few things.

Packing up to move makes you realize what you REALLY need.

So yeah… we’re moving again. As much as I loved the cross-country Route 66 drive, I’m relieved that this time we’re just going down the street. As I’m – once again – sifting through stuff, deciding what we need and what is just clutter, I realize there are a few things I’ve discovered in our first year here that I truly love. Funny enough… it’s not clothes or shoes or other “stuff.” (I’ve actually donated or tossed half my clothing since leaving Atlanta. Hooray half-assed minimalism!)

The things I’m sharing today are can’t-live-without items I’ve re-ordered more than once, and a few things that have stayed with me for at least 4 years.

My Version of Camping + WIAW

April 20, 2016 By Laura

I have become a fan of camping.

By camping, I mean glamping.

In case you aren’t familiar with the term, here’s how Urban Dictionary defines Glamping:

Peanut Butter Banana Pops [Recipe]

April 15, 2016 By Laura

There is no greater combination than peanut butter and banana.

Well, maybe chocolate.

It’s more than a little strange for me to be posting such a super-simple recipe, especially one involving frozen fruit. It’s good, nonetheless. A peanut butter banana pop in the heat of the summer couldn’t sound more perfect, no?

Plus, it’s really strange and hilariously good to watch Vegas eat one of these. She forbid me from posting the pics, but they exist, trust me.

Injured Knee Leg Workout + WIAW

April 13, 2016 By Laura

Leg day is even less fun with a torn ACL.

You’d think I’d use this as an excuse to skip it.

If I weren’t scared of my leg totally atrophying I wouldn’t bother with legs. But I am. So we did it. Yes, Vegas even came to the gym with me.

I’m not “leg day.”
