We were in Truckee last weekend (nearby where we stayed with Mike’s family over the holidays) and I found my new favorite coffee shop; Wild Cherries Coffee House. It’s local. It’s cheap. I think the name is cute. And omg, the food. There was an array of delicious nomz from enchiladas to hummus wraps. We went there for breakfast and I ordered an egg, pepper jack, avo, and tomato sando. They made it fresh so it took a little long but it was worth every minute.

New Moon Natural Foods

Another Truckee gem! I saw this store back in December and wanted to check it out but didn’t have the chance. Talk about an epic store… They had an extensive beer selection, lots of booch, a variety of different sea vegetables (including kombu, which I’ve been looking for to try in a Magic Mineral Broth), and a whole bunch of natural beauty products; which brings me to…

Clay toothpaste 

I’ve heard about clay toothpaste before and have honestly thought, ew.. every time. But, for some reason, this brand appealed to me while I was browsing New Moon. I bought it and guess what? I love it! I don’t think I can ever go back to tubbed tooth paste. My mouth feels so clean after using the clay version. Like, just-left-the-dentist-clean y’all.

I got the peppermint kind but they have cinnamon as well, if that’s your preference

Disclaimer: I made everyone who went to Truckee with us try it and I was the only person who liked it… I’ll admit the taste takes some getting used to BUT the after-clean feeling can’t be beat!

Milk Thistle

My friend Lydia told me about milk thistle and it’s liver detoxifying powers last year. I pretty much immediately bought a bottle at Whole Foods. I took a few after I popped it open but wasn’t consistent. However, I just started taking them again and … can’t really tell if they are working or not (hah) but I like to believe they are. I like to think that my liver is getting a little boost of love every morning!

FIRST Books 

This happens to me all of the time. I buy a book, read it, love the author, and then realize it is her second book. Certainly not the end of the world but it does mess with my orderly-OCD mind… Anyway, I finally bought 2 (first) books that I have been meaning to for a while now.

Fresh flowers

For our anniversary, Mike gifted me with a future 3 month supply of fresh flowers. Love!!

How gorgeous are those colors?! They are so pretty and the colors are perfect for that end of winter/beginning of spring transition.

Up next for us (which I think will be a big fave)? Bali! We’re leaving next Thursday so I’ll be spending the weekend packing my summer dresses and bikinis. Stay tuned for the recap!


** Note this blog went through a rebrand and is now veg vibes; which aligns better with the direction I organically gravitated towards. It’s all about your vibe.**
