It’s kind of strange driving to work in the dark again now that sunrise is later, feels a little cold and lonely. But I’m loving the cooler weather here and the beautiful sunsets at dinner time. We can tell when cooler weather officially starts kicking in because Miko would rather park it on warm laps […]
Cinnamon Maple Dessert Balls
It’s been a relaxing weekend so far here with a little lap cuddle time while I catch up on Breaking Bad. A huge kale salad from Whole Foods with home made smokey avocado rosemary dressing. Stepping out to see Captain Phillips. And what a great movie. I was hesitant to see it because the trailers […]
Sriracha Quinoa
Hooray, tomorrow is Friday! And I took a huge chunk out of my Christmas shopping today! I’m trying to have it all done before December to stress less and enjoy the festivities, sounds good in theory – right? Smokey is not impressed with our Candy Crush obsession lately. Did you know if you time out […]
Sage Butternut Soup
It’s nice to enjoy a little down time sipping wine after a busy day at work and running to the gym. Skipper agrees, he’s always up for a little down time. He loves froggy napping, he’ll crash into that position as soon as we get back from a long walk. I love simple raw meals […]
Cinnamon Crazy
Where did this weekend go? Oh yeah, it was spent doing lots of fun stuff and eating. Yesterday we had a huge birthday party for my niece with tons of family and friends, it was a packed house. My sweet mom made a huge batch of seasoned olive romaine salad using the recipe from Peas […]
Curried Apple Soup
We’re really starting to embrace fall here, the chihuahuas have started burrowing into blankets for the cooler weather. Miko was so comfy in his pink blanket, he dragged it away from his bed when it was time to go outside. Skipper has been embracing relax time wedging himself into pillows. And chihuahua beds. I’m embracing […]
Hurried Hemp Seed Cheesy Sauce
With such a full house here, there are a lot of sweet faces that want attention when I get home from work. Leela loves her cuddle time while this little guy is ready to chase his toy for hours. And Skipper just likes to hang out with us usually at hubby’s feet while we’re watching […]
Vegan Chef Challange at Tower Bridge Bistro
Good morning, I’m up early before the sun again this morning, but thankfully got a good night’s sleep last night and feeling much better. Amazing how emotional and drained lack of sleep can make me feel, not fun! Last night hubby and I had another amazing dinner out for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge, I’m […]
Spiced Chia Seed Pudding
I’m glad the weekend is finally here, it’s been a busy week. It started too early for me though, I woke up around 5 AM unable to go back to sleep with everything I need to get to this weekend turning in my head after a busy week which I hate. And that was after […]
Mock Pumpkin Pie Soup
Fall is really in the air here and I love it. I love what the leaves on our trees are doing. I want to go on a hike or bike ride this weekend collecting fall leaves. And maybe visit a pumpkin farm. And enjoy more of the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge! Yeah, I’m ready for […]
