Reproductive Rights Affected My Life and Career … and Not for the Reasons You Think

June 27, 2022June 27, 2022 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ Leave a comment

When people think of Roe v Wade (including the justices who recently bucked Stare Decisis to rule) it's very black and white: “murdering babies" or "not murdering babies". There is nothing else; the focus is singular. The ruling does not take into account the very real, very complex, and non-pregnancy MEDICAL situations directly related to … Continue reading Reproductive Rights Affected My Life and Career … and Not for the Reasons You Think

Thank You

April 7, 2020June 26, 2022 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ Leave a comment

Funny how you really take things for granted until they are gone. (I mean, it is an old cliche; everyone says it, it's not like it's unknown) But yet, we still, as humans, do this regularly. When our hierarchy of needs are met, we sort of check that box and look for the next first-world … Continue reading Thank You

The Moon

March 29, 2020April 7, 2020 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ Leave a comment

I once took a graphic design class, right after college (I couldn't quit learning!), and one of the assignments was to make 100 tiny paintings of one topic. We were limited to what that topic could be, and the teacher required it be from a list that she had provided. From the list, I chose … Continue reading The Moon

Your Background

March 27, 2020March 29, 2020 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ Leave a comment

What's your background? No, I don't mean ethnicity, nationality, or "where you're from." We're in the age of Coronavirus, y'all! I mean, what's your zoom/interview background? I know that zoom has some cool background functionality. I'm talking about when you can't use that (i.e. my Mac doesn't have enough processor power for it, lol), or … Continue reading Your Background

Why We Get Dolled Up

March 26, 2020March 27, 2020 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ Leave a comment

Ok, I know in my last post I said I was back to blogging... I ended up working on some new projects (still doing that), but now that we are all confined to our homes, I am able to carve out a little more time and thought here. In fact, each one of these days … Continue reading Why We Get Dolled Up

It’s Back On

July 8, 2019March 26, 2020 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ 1 Comment

Hello world! It's been awhile since I last posted, three years and three months (or so). I took a break and the break kept going... and going... and going... but my mind didn't. So, I've come back to my old friend, "the blog" to restart the spewing of brain matter and ideas. And in this … Continue reading It’s Back On

My Heart

April 5, 2016July 8, 2019 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ 3 Comments

I sit and stare at the top of your head, trying to memorize every single white hair, the angle of your ears, the slope of your shoulders. Then it comes to me, "just take a picture, you'll remember it longer," and so I do just that. I'm dreading putting you to sleep. Not because of … Continue reading My Heart

Cauliflower “Steaks” with Olive Pistou

November 1, 2014April 6, 2016 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ Leave a comment

I know I haven't been posting recipes as often that I thought I would. Truth be told, I only want to post recipes on here that I actually like. So, although I'm cooking quite a bit for this class, some of the recipes aren't up to my high "palatability" standards. I actually liked this recipe … Continue reading Cauliflower “Steaks” with Olive Pistou

Plant-Based Cooking: No Tuna Tuna

August 26, 2014April 6, 2016 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ 1 Comment

With all the media surrounding sustainable fishing practices and the safety of tuna, it might be a good idea to take a look at alternatives to the Chicken of the Sea. No tuna tuna. It's sounds a bit cray, I realize, but I was actually really surprised at the likeness this recipe had to actual … Continue reading Plant-Based Cooking: No Tuna Tuna

Hug a Tree

August 21, 2014April 6, 2016 ~ lifeloveandyoga ~ 1 Comment

When I was a youngin' my Dad used to take my brother and I on hikes through the trails and forests of Washington state. Every time we'd embark for the great outdoors, he'd tell us upon arrival, "Remember, if you get lost, hug a tree." Fortunately, I never had to take that advice, like a … Continue reading Hug a Tree
