I have a very depressed dog on my hands. She’s been clingy, pouty, lazy and whiny. Our crazy weather is taking a toll, she can’t stand the high winds in her ears and always wants to go outside, but can’t end our walks soon enough when I drag her out. Poor thing, I keep trying […]
Balsamic Hemp Dressing
Our weather this week has still been cruel, we had a little sunshine peak through this afternoon while I was at work and the wind and clouds crept back by the drive home. Not fair! But I’m trying to make the most of the icky weather catching up with the DVR during my indoor workouts […]
Fast Tempeh Skillet
Hey, how did Monday get here so quick? After a busy day at work and another day of chilly wind, rain and gray, I was in the mood for something hot and comforting for dinner with maybe a little kick. I got out one of my favorite protein sources – tempeh, LightLife’s Organic Flax Tempeh […]
Remixing Leftovers
Ugh, today was another gloomy and rainy day, the sky looked like this all day and opened up again minutes after I took the pic. We had wind gusts up to 60 MPH last night, so I didn’t sleep that well with a terrified chihuahua sitting on me. It sounded like a freight train was […]
Rainy Catch Up
After a week or two of cooking in our kitchen it needs a thorough cleaning to remove the build up of cooked grime on the stove, mop the kitchen floors, get the crumbs out of the utensil drawers, etc. Today was that day for me and it was the perfect day to stay inside and […]
Salad Wraps & Creamy Soup
TGIF! Even the insanely cold, windy and wet weather couldn’t bring down my giddiness that it’s Friday because what a busy week it’s been! But I am a little bummed that a run probably won’t happen since there are rain, wind and flood warnings for the entire weekend. After a few days of this weather, […]
Goats & Green Socca
Happy St. Patty’s Day and almost Friday! No green beer guzzling here, but lots of green pics. Every spring large herds of goats make their way through all the open fields and hillsides here for grazing. They eat wildfire fuel, weeds and thatch to promote new growth and seeing the herds is a cool sight. […]
Creamy Hemp Seed Casserole
Remember this show? I actually wore my hair in a mess of scrunchies like that in junior high and they looked ridiculous in my fuzzy curly hair! But I adored this show, Mayim Bialik was one my idols for being able to pull off such daring fashion – I mean a skirt made out of […]
Pudding to Go & Lentil Tacos
Aw, feeling much better today – not as tired or sore thankfully! But our weather continues to be soggy and rainy, it rained all day and is supposed to continue most of the week. I’m already over the rain, but oh well. I packed a quick lunch for work today and got creative for a […]
Lazy Leftovers
Wow, I am in pain today after yesterday’s half marathon! It was not easy trying to not limp like a wuss climbing the stairs to my department this morning. Just like it wasn’t easy climbing out of bed this morning after such a weekend! I should get a medal for that too. :-) I’m lacking […]
