Ah, getting closer to the long weekend and I’m ready. Shadow is hanging in there, he seems stable and has his follow up vet appointment tomorrow. He’s started playing catch-me-if-you-can when it’s pill time which is a time consuming game when I’m trying to rush out the door in the morning. Thankfully he seems to […]
Summer Dill Dressing & A Standing Desk
Awhile back I supported a Kickstarter for The UpStanding Desk and received one of the first desks off the production line for it this week! I’ve been curious about trying a standing desk for awhile after reading about all the benefits on LifeHacker, but not thrilled about the idea of buying a pricey desk to […]
Potluck and Chocolate Syrup
Whew, I’m here and recovering from a busy week. I’ve been in Sacramento for the last two days for all day IT certification training and all that new information in a short amount of time can be exhausting. I need to gather my notes and study the material to take an exam in the next […]
Tomato Avocado Dressing
This is shaping up to be a busy week with lots going on at work, another work potluck, and two days of training in the city for me. That’s all good, except Miko would like me to make more time to play with him. And Skipper would like more walks. He does his happy downward […]
Mother Sacramento
Finally the weekend and finally hubby is home from his business trip, whew! Shadow is hanging in there, his white blood cell count is still up which could be a few things and feline leukemia is still a possibility. He’s on prednisone for 2 weeks before going back for another follow up vet appointment. He’s […]
Garlic Ginger Dressing
Leela is getting a little tired of me this week, a little huffy that I’m not spending enough time with her. And she’s discovered a new way to get my attention by sitting under the coffee table growling and woofing when I’m watching TV. Clever girl. Skipper is his usual happy-go-lucky self eagerly following me […]
Funky Eating
I’m here, really. I’ve been in a bit of a funk the last few days with a lot going on including a sick cat, sick family member, work, and other stresses. Miko was so sweet when I got home from work today ready to play and following me around the house. Shadow is hanging in […]
Simple Potato Broccoli Soup
Tomorrow is Friday, thank goodness. It’s been a week of worry and sinus issues here. Shadow, one of our sweet gray kitties, is having health issues. We noticed he’s been losing weight and having intestinal issues and took him into the vet this week to find out it’s either thyroid issues or feline leukemia. The […]
Sweet Carrot Dill Dressing
Summer is definitely here with more days of triple digit heat and Miko is ready to party all the time. He loves bringing us toys to throw and he has a collection of them stashed all over the house. Getting up early and heading into an office is tough when the sun is shining and […]
Sacramento VegFest
Whew, I’m back. It was such a busy week that it’s nice to disconnect and have a little fun on the weekend. I had to make a tough choice yesterday, either go to Sacramento’s VegFest or Animal Place’s Music in the Meadow and it was not easy! Two huge and awesome vegan events should not […]
