Miko is recovering from his vet visit last week to have two teeth removed and he’s almost done with his medication which we’ll both appreciate not having to deal with pills twice a day! Leela is happy to tunnel herself into blankets this week, she’s been feeling anti social. I don’t blame her after having […]
Weekend List
Happy Mother’s Day! Poor Miko had a bad week, on Wednesday night I noticed one of his front teeth was loose and worried it was a painful problem for him. Our awesome, busy vet was able to fit him in for an early appointment the next morning and the poor guy spent all day there getting knocked […]
Raw Vegan Version of a Classic
Friday is almost here, thank goodness! And Miko is thankful for zucchini scraps he gets when I break out my vegetable spiral slicer. Summer approaching means soon zucchini will be everywhere here and I’m looking forward to loading up on massively huge ones at farmer’s markets just so I can use my spiral slicer for […]
Salads Can Be Gooey and Cheesy
Miko is a little bored with me this week. I’m still feeling washed out with this cold, but it’s almost gone! Thank goodness, I’m ready after 5 days of it! Colds can cause some interesting food cravings for me, anything salty, fatty, and/or sweet which are bad options for energy crashes and feeling even more […]
Weekend List with a High Protein Comfort Meal
It’s been a quiet weekend for us with me being on call for work and dealing with an annoying cold! Our department has been passing around what seems like a few colds over the last month and it finally hit me. Ick, it’s been awhile since I’ve gone through this much tissue and not being […]
Cauliflower Can Be Creamy and Delicious
It’s feeling like summer already here with lots of sunshine and making it difficult to face spending a day in the office. I’ll probably be singing a different tune when we hit triple digit heat, but for now we’re enjoying more time playing in the backyard. Miko loves racing around for his toy. Not Smokey, […]
How Hemp Seeds Can Be Creamy Comfort Food
It’s been a feisty week here so far, the chihuahuas seem to have spring fever. Miko has been taunting Leela more to play chase. Leela wants nothing to do with it and turns into a growling tornado when she’s decided she’s had enough. That’s Miko’s queue to hide under the table for a bit while she […]
Weekend List with Dessert Inpiration
Yesterday we had a fun taco family gathering at my sister’s house with plenty of vegan options starting with whipping up the Whole Fruit Margarita recipe in the Vitamix recipe book. And I got brain freeze because it’s been awhile since I’ve had a frozen slushy drink! There was also tortilla chips with fresh made […]
Why Balsamic is Better Sweet
Thank goodness Friday is almost here! The chihuahuas are already getting their rest on! Rough life! I finally watched Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead 2 on Netflix this week and I was very impressed with it. The juicing healthy turn around method Joe Cross promotes isn’t necessarily my style, but it’s an extreme way to make a […]
Spicy Citrus and Ginger to Wake Up a Salad
Leela is getting revenge. She’s put up with Miko stealing parts of her dinners and breakfasts for years because she’ll only eat part and come back for more later … if there’s anything left. Not anymore! She’s been going after what’s left in Miko’s bowl this week and seems to have more of an appetite. Can’t […]
