Sunday again already? Time flies, but it’s been a great weekend. We’ve been getting a lot of rain this week with off and on storms. So, darn, too stormy to do yard work. We did get a great walk in last Sunday while it was still warm and sunny and visited a cute pair of […]
Eating Well for the List
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mother’s out there! I celebrated with my mom yesterday and trying to have a productive day at home today which is turning out to be just as lazy as I prep for a busy week. Leela is doing fine and got good news from her vet appointment, her eye […]
IKEA & Nachos for the List
Happy Cinco De Mayo, have any fun plans today? I ran, did laundry and chores, met my sister at IKEA to find a couch laptop table which is waiting in the box for hubby to assemble, and we made vegan nachos for dinner. Miko has been on cuteness overload this week being a sweet friend. […]
Vibrant Food, Hot Spot
Getting to Midtown’s Cantina Alley in Midtown Sacramento is a bit of an adventure tucked in an alley between J and K streets. But you can’t miss the vibrant entrance and eager line outside. We headed there before 6pm on a Saturday figuring we’d never get in any later and the wait already confirmed we […]
Springing into the List
The weather is warming up here, but that does not stop Miko from blanket snuggling. It’s never too hot for blanket snuggling for him, even in the summer he sleeps under a comforter all night while I’m waking up in hot flashes. Ah, the perks of being in my 40s. Leela is hanging in there, […]
Easter Time for the List
Happy Easter. We hosted a smaller scale family gathering here and spent much of yesterday cleaning and preparing for that. I made this vegan carrot cake recipe, but switched out the frosting with Miss Jones Vanilla Vegan Frosting I found at Sprouts since we could not use the cashew based option in the recipe with […]
Getting Better for the List
This weekend seemed to fly by too fast, but it was a productive weekend. We still have my mom’s dog, Dasher, while she is recovering from hip replacement surgery and he is a, uh, portly dog. He’s a sweetheart, but could stand to loose a few pounds and gets tired on long walks with Miko […]
Odd Week for the List
It has been a strange and disorienting week starting very early Monday getting my mom to the hospital for hip replacement surgery. Since then, it’s been a busy schedule rotating with my sisters helping her recover, staying overnight for the recommended hours of monitoring, working, and still dealing with this damn cold. Thankfully things are […]
Recovering for the Weekend List
It has not been an easy week, lots of challenges that have me looking forward to things settling down. The biggest stress source has been getting sick while getting my mom ready for a big hip surgery tomorrow, eek! I’ve been fighting off an annoying cold most of last week, that proved to be something […]
Getting Active for the List
This weekend flew by, I could use another day or two off I think! But it’s been a good and productive weekend with sweet Miko getting in more cuddle time. And gorgeous weather today after two more days of rain. But I’m not complaining about the rain after last summer! I am getting excited about […]
