I am so glad this awful week is over! It was so busy that I felt other areas of my life were neglected, I’ve got some making up to do in housework this weekend – fun! My sprouts were also neglected beyond rinsing them twice a day. The result is this after 5 days: The […]
Zucchini Hemp Hummus
I am so glad this week is almost over! With so much going on at work, I felt deprived of fun time and time to get stuff done at home. Thursdays are odd food days here since I’m usually running low on fresh ingredients and/or feeling pretty burned out from the week. Simple meals are […]
Over the Hump!
I’m thrilled the end of this week is in sight after plenty of work madness! I’ll spare you from my stress rant, but something interesting did happen at work – HR introduced Wellness Initiative, a new voluntary program for employees. It encourages us to fill out a health survey online with information like BMI, blood […]
Car Kitty & Soup
I had to laugh last night when I stepped out to walk the dog and found our neighbors 30 lb. cat denting in the hood of hubby’s car some more. As she stood up to greet me, I could here the sheet metal sagging and popping. I’m glad that neither of us are so worried […]
Motivation Monday & Creamy Tofu Sauce
Happy stinking Monday, right? As expected, motivation was a huge problem for me this morning. I knew I had a horribly busy and stressful day ahead and waking up to cold, rain, and wind did not help motivate me out of bed. But I managed and that’s something! Katie had a great idea for Motivation […]
Pea Protein & Baked Kabocha
I’ve become a huge fan of Sun Warrior Protein powder and I’m happy that my hubby has too, I make a double smoothie for both of us on week mornings so he has a quick breakfast to take to work. But that also means we’re going through it twice as fast now and it’s not […]
Asparagus Fest
Whew, I am wiped after a day in the sun! An awesome day at the Stockton Asparagus Festival, perfect weather, great friends and lots of great sights. Since we moved here 5 years ago, I’ve been planning to make it to this festival and finally did. Hubby and I went with a couple of […]
Flax Cream & Sprout Salad
TGIF! After 2 days of frustration, I could not get past this level in Angry Birds. I hand my phone to hubby to try it and he clears it with 3 stars in a few minutes! Sigh. At least I can finally move on to the next level. :-) While running errands for lunch today, […]
My Lentil Obsession Continues
Hubby stopped by Target on the way home and picked up a new cat scratcher while loading up on the usuals. Problem is he only got one which Smokey parked her round bottom on and Shadow pouted while patiently waiting his turn. After 15 minutes of drama, he relocated Smokey so the poor guy could […]
Stressful Week
This week at work continues to be non-stop, today was just a blur of insanity due to being short handed and many projects popping up. What I can’t stand about weeks like this is just feeling shut down, too fried to do anything I want when I get home and no free minutes at work […]
