We’re really starting to embrace fall here, the chihuahuas have started burrowing into blankets for the cooler weather. Miko was so comfy in his pink blanket, he dragged it away from his bed when it was time to go outside. Skipper has been embracing relax time wedging himself into pillows. And chihuahua beds. I’m embracing […]
Mock Pumpkin Pie Soup
Fall is really in the air here and I love it. I love what the leaves on our trees are doing. I want to go on a hike or bike ride this weekend collecting fall leaves. And maybe visit a pumpkin farm. And enjoy more of the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge! Yeah, I’m ready for […]
Curry Zucchini Soup
Yesterday was a long, but fun day. It was National Plug In Day, a holiday to celebrate electric vehicles, and I volunteered with SacEV at a big celebration event at the Folsom Outlets. It was an all day event and I was scheduled for the second part of the day to show cars, answer questions, […]
Raw Balsamic Butternut Soup
Thank goodness Friday is almost here, I’m ready. And tomorrow is a big day for Skipper, he goes to an all day vet appointment to test his blood sugar, plasma, and other stuff to find out what’s going on with his canine diabetes and if the current insulin dosage is working. I feel bad about […]
Simple Zucchini Ramen Soup
It’s been a relaxing and productive weekend so far, I met my mom at the gym for an non-rushed workout yesterday morning, then worked through a lot of house chores with hubby, and stepped out to see Elysium before making a relaxing dinner at home. Not a bad movie, you’ll like it if you liked […]
Creamy Tomato Soup
Hooray, Friday is almost here. And we’re still hanging in there with Skipper, it’s been almost two weeks with him now but feels longer since so much has happened. I’m adjusting to giving him insulin shots twice a day and updating my morning routine to include that before work. It’s still a nerve racking process […]
Cucumber Dill Soup
I’m still here, a little discombobulated after a few days of stress and trying to figure things out. Things have been a bit chaotic since Skipper, a lost/abandoned rat terrier, walked into our garage last Friday night looking for help. And he’s still very content here. And loves spending time with hubby on the couch. […]
Avocado Beet Soup
Whew, it’s almost Friday! I’m so glad after another weird and busy week at work. I’ve been in a stressed out funk the last two days with so much going on and I’m pretty sure the pups know it. They’ve been carefully watching and following me and being sweet little lap buddies when I finally […]
Goals and Curried Carrot Soup
Happy 2013! I know, I’m a day late. But yesterday was a wonderful relaxing day at home. I went for a run to break in my new shoes, played games, watched movies, and moved a couple of mountains completing house chores and taking down Christmas decorations. Thanks to the help of my mom, we had […]
Spicy Seitan and Carrot Ginger Soup
I’m sort of into seitan now because it’s as versatile and easy to prepare as tempeh while packing a lot protein – more than many meat products. I was pretty excited when I found a new seitan flavor to try this weekend from Sweet Earth Natural Foods. Why have I never tried any of their […]
