Blurg, Sunday night again. This weekend went by too fast! I jumped out of bed early this morning to enjoy coffee and a smoothie before dashing out on a 6-mile run. And just wow, the weather was perfect for it! Sunny, in the 50s, no wind, and not a cloud in the sky. Good thing […]
Salads and Recipe Tweaking
I’m so relaxed that I almost forgot to blog. Okay, not really. But it’s been a laid back day at home with the exception of a trip to Costco. The weather was so perfect that I felt a little bad for not going on a hike or utilizing that more, but it was nice to […]
Creamy Dill Sauce
Can’t lie, I’m not sad this work week is almost over! I’ve been so burned out after work that it’s been a struggle to motivate myself for workouts. But I did! The weather has been awful the last few days with wind, cold, and rain. Which means most of my workouts are indoors this week […]
Tempeh Tots
It’s only Tuesday and the week is already filled with ups and downs! A downer is work has been nuts still, so much going on with system upgrades, start ups, etc. I’m glad to be busy and it makes the day fly by, but it’s draining when our department is shorthanded. And then there was […]
Creamy Raw Broccoli Soup
So far this has been a very laid back weekend and that’s alright with me because I’ve had a case of the blahs with so much going on at work and outside of work. I did get in a 5-mile run that went fine in my new shoes thankfully. And I snacked on popcorn flavored […]
Random Things
TGIF! So happy Friday is here and I have a pretty random post since that’s about all I’m good for after another mind-frying day at work! 1. We’ve been having a chihuahua party here the last two days with three of them in the house watching my mom’s chihuahua while she was out of town. […]
Remixing Leftovers for WIAW
Happy What I Ate Wednesday! That means it’s downhill into the weekend and I’m alright with that! As much as I love short work weeks following a long weekend, this one truly feels like we’re cramming 5 days worth of work into 4 and I’m ready for a little mini getaway! So I […]
Raw Crunchy Leeks
Where did the long weekend go? We had such a wonderfully peaceful day off yesterday, there was lots of relaxing going on. With a little fireplace toasting. And sneaking cat toys to play with while pouting because the dog toys were in the wash. And maybe a little Thai coconut curry tofu takeout. But I […]
Recouping and Regrouping
Three day weekends are fabulous, it’s like we get two Saturday nights. And I’ve been utilizing the long weekend to relax and spend time with hubby and our pets after such a busy week. I guess I didn’t realize how busy last week was because it was nice to disconnect for a couple of days […]
Vegan Quinoa Paella
To me, Miko is still a puppy even though we were told he was about 5 years old when we adopted him. He has the energy and appetite of a puppy, he’s perfectly happy to eat all day and beg for everything I’m eating – even salad and broccoli. After our evening walk, he goes […]
