So happy the weekend is finally here, it’s been a strange, sad, and stressful week. I’ve been feeling exhausted this week with work being so busy and all the bad news I think, just feeling worn out and really looking forward to some down time. I felt the need to treat myself this morning with […]
Creamy Dill Salad
What a day at work, ugh! One of those days where I didn’t even have a minute to catch my breath between putting out fires and I’m feeling the stress with everything I need to do tomorrow circling in my mind. It’s also been a super windy day making poor Miko frustrated about going outside. […]
Weekend Random
Well hello Monday, how did you get here so fast? The weekend flew by, don’t they always? But it was productive, I buzzed around a lot yesterday running errands, cleaning, and tackling laundry for the week. And we got in a little relax time too, Shadow was happy to have hubby’s lap while looking through […]
Ginger Lentils & Quinoa
This post is slightly all over the place with odds and ends from the week, but that’s about where I am after a busy week. Thank goodness the weekend is here and I just booked a week long vacation for us in July, I already feel relaxed and can’t wait! Finding good vegan shoes for […]
Avocado Balsamic Dressing
Whew, Friday is almost here! And after a few busy weekends, I’m ready for a little downtime this weekend. We’re all looking a little worse for wear around here, Shadow has been parked in our bed all evening. Leela is wiped after spending a day with very active nieces! Then there’s Miko who’s always ready […]
Sour Avocado Dressing
It’s been very windy here the last few days, probably my least favorite weather especially for running! Good thing I’ve been on run rest since Sunday’s 12k and hitting the elliptical while trying to catch up on Mad Men. Miko is not a fan of the wind either avoiding even going into the backyard to […]
Run Rocklin 12k
Whew, I’m feeling a little wiped after an awesome 12k race! Today started very early with a huge pre-race smoothie of hemp protein powder, strawberries, banana, kale, carrots, chia seeds, and dates for plenty of energy. I left the house at 6:45am to pick up my sister and dash to the Run Rocklin 12k we […]
Strawberry Chia Dressing
I’m so happy the weekend is finally here and we’ve been living it up already celebrating hubby’s birthday with a little fine dining last night where I might have had too many amazing garlic fries and wine. So today we’ve been laying a little low relaxing and playing. And I crammed in a lot of […]
Tomato Quinoa Stew
It’s almost Friday and I am ready! It’s been a busy week, except for the dogs. I can’t blame them, it rained most of today and I’d rather be balled up in a comfy couch blanket too. Instead I was craving a little comfort food for dinner after a busy work day. When I first […]
Creamy Lemon Dressing
After a fun and busy weekend, I wish I could stay home with these two this week! It hasn’t been easy to get back into work mode and healthy eating after the Easter weekend, especially with work stress and the massive amounts of leftover Easter candy people have been bringing into work. There are unopened […]
