I’m slowly getting back to reality and the grind after a non-stop roller coaster ride this weekend. I have lots to catch up on and tons of pictures to go through this week. The last three days have been such a whirlwind that it feels like it’s been a month. But this post will be […]
Pumpkin Pie Salad
Whew, it’s proving to be a tough week. Skipper, our sweet diabetic senior dog that moved in with us last year, has taken a turn for the worse. Since his odd spell almost two weeks ago, he’s been having good and bad days, mostly bad days this week which is heart breaking. He’s not into […]
Another Half Done
I made it through another half marathon yesterday in under 2 hours, but it was an early morning and long day! We got up at 4:45 am to get ready and be out of the house by 5:45 am, picked up my sister, and headed to Land Park for the Urban Cow Half Marathon. After […]
Race Ready
What a week and weekend so far. This is a busy month for me with lots going on at work and the weekends and that’s all good. Hubby and I celebrated our dating anniversary yesterday with fun little gifts, like this cute little 8Bitdo NES30 Bluetooth game controller for my iPad. And stepped out for […]
Cinnamon Banana Dressing
Wow, October is here already! It’s an awesome month for vegans in Northern California starting with the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge running during the entire month. Basically a bunch of restaurants create fabulous vegan menus to compete against each other for votes and anyone can try these unique dishes and vote for their favorites. It’s […]
Getting into Fall and More Hemp Tofu
Skipper has been hanging in there after his little spell on Friday, but still not 100%. He’s slower, not as interested in food as he was, which is very strange for him, and seems a little more confused. He still seems happy and not like he’s in pain, but that can be tough to tell […]
Scenes from the Farm-to-Fork Festival
Yesterday we had a scary event with Skipper. When we rescued him over a year ago, we knew he was old, at least 12 years old, and probably abandoned which breaks my heart. And the long list of health problems the vet found was scary – diabetes, erratic heart beat, possibly tumors causing other blood […]
Tomato Cheddar Dressing
I’m here and it’s been a week so far! Lots going on at work with big projects and issues. I’ll spare you the details, but I was actually looking forward to a dentist appointment today because I got to leave work early, like a mini vacation to have my teeth scraped! Hopefully things will settle […]
Weekend Rambling
I’m here and around and it was nice to disconnect a little after a crazy busy week last week. My brain felt like spinning mush when I left work on Friday we’ve got so much going on and things are still a little stressful outside of work with an unhappy cat and crazy wild fire […]
Sweet Dijon Dressing
I’m still ready for fall. Seriously, come on cooler breezes and turning leaves. And maybe a little rain if we’re lucky. It’s still hot here and poor Skipper is getting tired of it too. We can’t take him for walks during the daytime because it’s still just too hot for the poor old guy who’s […]
