What a week, I am ready for Friday. Lots going on at work, but things are back to normal at home with Miko enjoying plenty of cuddle time with hubby. And being his little gaming buddy. Busy weeks can be a bummer for me since I don’t have as much time as I’d like to […]
Creamy Broccoli Quinoa
Today was a crazy day at work, a one-thing-after-another day that at least flew by quick. And I came home to a quieter house since we’re no longer dog sitting my dad’s dog. I think Miko is a little sad to lose his buddy for the last two weeks though. He perked up for an […]
Simple Saturday
Happy Saturday, finally. We’re still dogsitting my dad’s dog. Leela is still not happy about it. And Miko is having a blast with his new stuffed pig toy. We picked it up for him yesterday since he ripped into his last toy and he eagerly watched me cut the tags off of it. Then he […]
Watermelon Tomato Salad
Between my Costco trip last weekend, our garden, and this huge batch of tomatoes delivered in our farm box today, we’re overflowing with tomatoes! I needed to use some up quick with dinner and was craving something cool and hydrating since today’s high was 106 degrees of dry heat. I decided to experiment with a […]
Sweet, Sour, and Not Fried Sauce
It’s been fun getting back into the grind after an action-packed weekend with a hectic couple of days at work. And we still have a house full of dogs that sometimes get along, we’re still dog-sitting my dad’s dog and she has such a sweet, smiling face. We think she’s part husky, samoyed, and corgi […]
Birthday Weekend
I’ve been slacking this weekend, I know. But I have an excuse, it’s my birthday and I’ve been celebrating all weekend. Celebrating with a house full of dogs since we’re still dog-sitting my dad’s sweet dog. And giving this little guy lots of cuddles. I also made myself a luxury salad for lunch yesterday using […]
Tangy Banana Tahini Dressing
Hey, Friday is almost here! And we’re still chugging along with our house guest this week – my dad’s 15-year-old husky mix. She’s an absolute sweetie, but she can eat! She’s decided she’d rather have our dog’s dinner than her own special food, so I spend dinner time blocking her from the other dog’s bowls […]
Eggplant Hemp Hummus
We’re babysitting my dad’s senior husky mix this week and enjoying her sweet personality. As for Leela… well, not so much. She’s still not warmed up to our house guest and maybe it has something to do with nearly having her dinner eaten every night. For our dinner, I tore into a new bag of […]
The Weekend
Another weekend flew by too fast, wow! It’s been a little chaotic here because we’re dog sitting again, this time for my dad’s husky mix while he’s out of town and she’s a sweetheart. But a little more of a challenge since she’s a senior dog, she takes medicine multiple times a day and needs […]
Fiery Red Pepper Dressing
TGIF! So happy the weekend is finally here and we’re getting ready to sneak out for dinner even though this little guy would like us to stay parked on the couch! I had another vegan dilemma last night, I wanted to go to the farmer’s market, but had plenty of veggies to eat in our […]
