Today was definitely a Monday! I was hoping things would slow down a bit with this week being a holiday week, but oh no. Or maybe I’m still just a little tired and cranky recovering from being sick over the weekend and juggling extra work with others still out sick. It was nice to come […]
Keeping it Simple While Under the Weather
Friday night I got a nasty surprise, I started feeling awful – tired and achy with a pounding headache. By Saturday morning, I was parked on the couch nursing a full on migraine, feeling nauseous and feverish, and cursing my luck for getting sick on a weekend. I should have seen this coming since there […]
Groggy Dog & Sesame Tofu
Yesterday was a long and stressful day for both Leela, one of our chihuahuas, and I. I knew this has been coming for awhile and trying to avoid it, but Leela has bad teeth. She’s never liked crunchy, teeth cleaning treats and refuses to eat dry dog food or any food that’s supposed to be […]
Hearty Green Bean Casserole
Tonight dinner was a team effort as hubby and I prepared the meaty green bean casserole recipe from Peas and Thank You. With Thanksgiving approaching at light speed, I admit that our plans are still up in the air. That’s a good thing because I’m not stressing about planning a menu, yet. I am looking […]
Simple Sauteed Edamame Salad
I’m ready for Friday and it’s only Tuesday, that can’t be good! We’re still super busy at work and when I got home from work tired and cranky, I was treated to this cute scene. Miko has decided the fireplace hearth is his personal sauna toasting his little rear. The goofball will toast himself until […]
Case of the Blahs
This weekend flew by too fast, again. Working 5 hours of overtime yesterday didn’t help. I’m thrilled my job is busy and to have the opportunity to earn extra money, but… Besides working, I’ve been catching up on house chores, breaking in my new Lululemon running pants, and walking these two cuties. Who have been […]
Creamy Brussels Sprouts
TGIF! I’m happy to put this week behind me, it was another busy one at work. Too bad I have to work a little this weekend, ugh! Funny that it’s been less than a month since we adopted Miko. It feels like it’s been much longer, in a good way! The last few weeks have […]
WIAW with Busy Splurges
Guess what? I’m finally participating in What I Ate Wednesday again! Well it’s exciting for me because I’ve been meaning to for awhile, but trying to log all my eats on a busy workday is not easy. Each day I plan to, something comes up and I forget to snaps pics. Not today! 7 AM […]
2011 Foodbuzz Blogger Festival Gala Dinner
As fun as this weekend was, it was nice to be back to my normal food routine today starting with a green monster smoothie for breakfast, a loaded salad for lunch and a lazy dinner of spaghetti squash and edamame. I know, but I was feeling a little burned out when I got home from […]
2011 Foodbuzz Blogger Festival Sessions & Tasting
Day 2 of the 3rd Annual Foodbuzz Blogger festival started early at 9 AM with content sessions at Foodbuzz’s headquarters. I took a cab because it was a few miles from the hotel which was an interesting experience, the driver included me on a speaker phone conversation with his young son while driving telling him […]
