Sundrop Health Foods | Columbia Falls, Montana

“Always stop in random health food stores while traveling is good advice.” – Jeremy When Jeremy and I travel we love to find new health stores to visit. There’s a deep-seated fascination with snooping around someone else’s local health food sanctuary. How are products laid out? What do they carry? Do they have local or …

Herbie’s Deli Shop in Northern Idaho

We are back on the road and only a few minutes from Herbie’s Deli Shop as I write this now. I’m tethered to my phone and have my laptop comfortably resting on my lap in the front seat. Is car sickness a choice? Because right now I’m having no trouble at all typing staring at …

Mother’s Marketplace in Hood River, Oregon

With that search I found Mother’s Marketplace, a small vegetarian-vegan grocery store with an even smaller deli inside. …

A Portland Weekend

We drove to Portland last Thursday for a weekend of playing tourists, attending a wedding, and catching up with friends—it was fantastic! I couldn’t have hoped for better weather either.

Today’s review goes back to two days before we moved from Portland. Well, if I’m honest it goes back to December when my Mom and family sent Jeremy and I a gift card to Pok Pok. How did we end up at Sen Yai when our gift card was for Pok Pok? We had a …

Friday Review: Fruitful Yield Health Foods (Batavia, IL)

More than a few months ago I was in Illinois for a house-sitting job and to visit with family and friends. While there I had quite a few opportunities to see exactly how plant-based (vegan) friendly the Tri-Cities area is. I was surprised by my former home area and how many options that were available. These are simply places I …
