Sunday already, ugh. Sunday night’s are a struggle for me to enjoy my last bit of weekend freedom while prepping for the work week by doing laundry, starting a fresh batch of sprouts, making fresh hemp milk for coffee, and trying to come up with some sort of meal plan. Despite the triple-digit heat, it […]
Hemp Dill Dressing
I am so thankful to have a rest day at home today after a long week, it was wonderful sleeping in a little this morning after running on a lack of sleep for most of this week. There was a lot going on at work including a major upgrade that I was up until 1:30 […]
Creamy Banana Curry Dressing
Wake me up when June is over! This has been a crazy month so far at work and outside of work helping with family moves, trips, etc! I’ve been a little cranky this week with so much going on and just feeling tired while not sleeping to well with so much on my mind. I […]
Tempeh Alfredo Sauce
Monday nights are rarely exciting at the dinner table here, something about the long work week ahead and a busy day at work just does not compel me to get creative in the kitchen. But not today, I came up with a crazy tempeh idea in between addressing the weekend’s worth of work emails. After […]
Steamy Curried Lentils and Potatoes
The crazy winds from yesterday finally took a hike and I was able to pry Leela from her favorite new bed for some outdoor time. But she hurried back inside to prevent this one from taking her bed. I got in some quality kitchen time between loads of laundry and a trip to Trader Joe’s. […]
Tahini Zucchini Kale Chips
Sweet hubby ordered a new dog bed on Amazon to see if our dogs like this style and it’s a little big. But that’s not stopping Leela from claiming it, she’s been parked in it most of the day making sure no one else can get it. She lets Miko or the cats know when […]
Raw Protein & Orange Dessert Balls
In some ways I still feel like I’m recovering from being on antibiotics for most of last week. I’ve forgotten, or happily blanked out, how unhappy they can make my insides killing off all the good bacteria too and I think things are still trying to get back to normal. To accelerate that process, I’ve […]
Fiery Red Pepper Hummus
Right when I started working on this post last night, our entire neighborhood lost power. And we didn’t get it back for a few hours, right before I went to bed. And it sucked! When I lived in Florida, loosing power was a regular occurrence, nothing like being without AC in 100% humidity! But it […]
Super Power Salad
It’s sad to see the weekend go, especially since we had hot and sunny weather that just screams time to go out and play to me. I’m ready for road trips, fairs, swimming in lakes, hiking, and just enjoying the outdoors. Sigh. Until next weekend. But today was a fun and productive day helping my […]
Sprouts and Pizza
Today is the last day of taking antibiotics for the bladder infection and I’m thrilled! The side effects have been awful! Headaches, nausea, dizziness, cramps, etc. making for a tough and looooong short week at work! So it was great to relax at home most of the day getting in a little gym time and […]
