Excited for the big game? Not really here, we’ll be watching it at home while working on other stuff and playing in the kitchen. And Miko will probably be doing this. Or claiming Leela’s double decker bed. I treated myself to a new purse last week thanks to a too-tempting sale price and an draining, […]
Busy Week Eats
It has been a crazy week so far between us recovering from being sick and hubby traveling and being really busy at work. I intended to have a new recipe, but that did not happen. Oh well, there have been good eats and an awkward work potluck retirement party. Lots of sweet cuddles from Miko […]
SacTown VegFest for the List
Well I’m a little sad the weekend is almost over already, but really hoping for a better week next week. Last week was tough with hubby traveling for work, both of us catching a variety of the flu which hit poor hubby hard, work stress, etc. I’m thankful the week is over and we survived, […]
Better Turmeric Dressing
Being blind is tough on Leela, she is not adjusting to it well especially since her hearing seems to be going too. She spends a lot of time wandering the house, bumping into walls, and looking for food. I feel like I’m wandering through this week on autopilot. One of those weeks where things are […]
Too Many Great Eats for the List
It has been cold and frosty here, motivating myself for a long run this morning was a challenge. But I felt great after and needed to get some moving in after lots of great eating this weekend! For now we may have found a bed solution that Leela likes, for now. I was cleaning and […]
Smoky Butternut Pasta Sauce
Sometimes I wonder why I try. Leela loves to burrow into blankets to stay warm especially in the winter, but that’s gotten difficult now that she’s older and blind and I worry that she’ll get cold if we’re not there to cover her with a blanket. There are pet beds that allow dogs to burrow […]
Winter Eats for the List
It’s been full on winter mode here this week with lots of rain, fog, and chilly overcast days. I’m not complaining, it’s been beautiful. Even Leela has been enjoying staying warm in her snuggle bed and the new bowl set I picked up for her that has a tray to contain messes and bowls that […]
Daring Tahini Dressing
Poor Leela is feeling the challenges of going blind. We serve her dinner in a pretty hefty ceramic bowl. Somehow her little 9 lb. self stepped on the edge of the bowl just right last night to send it flying and her dinner all over the floor. Poor thing was too nervous to go back […]
Charging into 2018 for the List
Whew, not even a week into 2018 and so much already! That’s cool, I’ve decided my theme for 2018 is more – more adventure, more family time, more friends, more fun, and more productivity. Sounds good, right? The pups have been happy to chill this weekend, it’s been cool, foggy, and overcast with some rain […]
Feisty Good Dressing
Miko has been a little blue the last few days, he got used to us spending more time with him for the holidays and not happy about us getting back the grind. He is so eager to play when we’re home shoving his new toy in our faces while we’re trying to watch TV. Can’t […]
