Ssssss….there’s a lot of ess sounds going on lately.  Well, here’s what we’ve been up to for the past few days:
Made some raw sushi, oh so good!

Then we played in the snow in some excellent powder!

Joe and I discovered a new trail on Antelope Island.

It was beautiful!

Another first for us yesterday: Spiral Jetty, the infamous [...]

Happy Spring, everyone!  I hope all of you are enjoying the gorgeous weather we’ve been having.  As always, we like to take our enjoyment to a higher elevation.  Yesterday, instead of hitting up the slopes on a busy Saturday at the resort, we decided to go for a hike in the back country. Here is [...]

One of my staples I’ve been enjoying lately is this yummy green papaya salad.  Some of you might remember it from One Week Raw.  I don’t think I ever get tired of the crunchy veggies with the almond butter sauce, and it stays good in the fridge for a long time.

Its such a simple recipe [...]

I knew a long time ago that being out in nature was something that was required in my life in order for me to be happy.  I am just so lucky in that I have found someone else that shares my same requirement.  It’s really no surprise that we spend so much time enjoying outdoor [...]

This past week brought Utah the best snow we’ve had all season.  And it all happened around my birthday!  My husband gave me a wonderful gift!

It’s the 2010 Arbor Cadence board, and its a huge upgrade from the board that I had previously.  It rides like a dream!

Good in the powder as well as the [...]

I joined Snowlist, a local, online community based in Utah about a year ago.  I originally joined in an attempt to sell my snowboarding jacket (still for sale!)  This Tuesday I realized that Snowlist had more to offer than just a site to exchange outdoor products.  Monday night, I entered a contest for a free [...]

Danced a Xmas dance with the troupe,

Dad got married,

I got some laundry rage mail,

My cat discovered a new way to dry his fur,

Took a few snowshoeing adventures,

Tried out some new brewskies,

Got some new snowboarding gear, went snowboarding a lot,

All this and we [...]

Some of you might remember that I came home to an extraordinary amount of Probars after our Costa Rica excursion.  Well, I finally did it.  All of my Probars are gone!  I’m still waiting for my next shipment, *nudges Probar*.  I ate my last bar while doing something that I LOVE to do:  Snowboarding!
It seems [...]

Hello all!  First off, I want to apologize for my lack of activity on KombuchaCHIC.  Life has been a whirlwind of changes and uncertainty, and now that things are finally stabilizing, I can refocus my energy here.  I want to let everyone know a little bit of what has happened in the past three months.  [...]

I’m convinced that this is one of the most perfect forms of exercise, yet I don’t do it nearly enough.  Lately, cross country skiing is an activity that we try to take on at least once a week, depending on the weather conditions.  Don’t get me wrong, I love my snowboarding.  If its a powder [...]
