Well, did you survive the holidays? We did along with the rain and wild weather, but I am ready for a break from rich eating and drinking. It has been windy, raining, and feeling much colder than it is here. We’re not complaining, but Miko has not been feeling going on walks the last two […]
Feeling Holiday Ready for the List
Less than a week until Christmas, crazy right?! We have been preparing and being lazy this weekend in the foggy, wintery, cold weather. Miko has been happy to cuddle in warm blankets and laps and has been embracing his hoodie for walks in the cold. But wants it off as soon as he’s back in […]
Wintery Weekend for the List
We are getting lots of wind and rain over the next few days and not complaining! Miko has been very happy to snooze in warm blankets and on warm laps instead of facing the strong wind outside. When not sleeping, he’s ready on his dining “podium” to share meals with me and really into the […]
Cruising into December for the List
Crazy that it’s December already and it feels like December weather this weekend being overcast, foggy, and cold. Miko is loving the excuse to snuggle in warm comforters fresh from the dryer, take in the fireplace and embrace his many warm blankets. But he does take breaks from his warm blankets to share meals with […]
Celebrations for the List
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. We had two, a small one with my parents on Thanksgiving, then a large one with all the family on Saturday. Both great and it’s been an interesting week here. Late after work on Wednesday, I got a call from my mom that she had taken in a […]
Ready for Holiday Fun for the List
Whoa, Thanksgiving really is next week. Still trying to wrap my mind around that and looking forward to down time with family and friends. It looks very fall and festive here with overcast skies, turning leaves, and chilly temps. Miko has been refusing his early morning walks because it’s been too cold and misty outside. […]
Cauli Crumble Holiday Mac
These are interesting times which seems like an understatement. When I first started this blog, I was on a passionate mission to adopt a healthy, high raw plant based lifestyle and enjoyed spending lots of time in the kitchen experimenting with recipes and new kitchen toys. That has waned over the years and especially now […]
Manic November for the List
November has always been an interesting month to me, a conflicted month. It should be a great month, the holidays and fun times with friends and family are here and that is great. But there’s also a consistent, underlying anxiety. The stress of getting ready for the holidays and pressure to make them great. With […]
Enjoying Fall for the List
I am enjoying the extra hour this weekend for much needed downtime and taking in fall sunsets and scenes. Miko has been enjoying warm snuggle time on laps and his many, many blankets and beds all over the house because he is not a happy camper unless he has a comfy landing spot in every […]
Fall Fun Times for the List
Happy Halloween! Have any fun plans? We’re handing out candy, recipe experimenting, and drinking wine – not a bad way to spend it. Fall is in full swing here and it’s gorgeous with rain, turning leaves, and greenery returning after last weekend’s massive rain storm. A few weeks ago I snapped a pic of an […]
