Ready for Thanksgiving? We are, it will be simple and low-key at our house with my mom and experimenting with new recipes and products. And maybe decorating the house and getting a Christmas tree over the long weekend with lots of relaxing and another family party. Miko is ready for his play date tomorrow with […]
Fun Eats and Run Rest for the List
Hello and happy weekend before Thanksgiving! I hope your plans and preparations are going smoothly. Pretty low key and stress-free here, looks like we’re just having my mom over this year and playing around with vegan recipes. I have been taking a rest from running this week opting for elliptical workouts instead which have been […]
Creamy Winter Garlic Sauce
Winter feels like it’s in full swing today, it’s chilly and rainy and I’m loving it to make everything feel fresh. The pups aren’t much of a fan, this morning’s walk before work was more like a drag and they’re reminding us it’s time to turn on fireplace. Soon, I’m actually enjoying the chill and […]
Stress Challenges & Good Company for the List
There’s a dog in there somewhere. This is how Miko has been spending most of the chilly weekend and Leela has been happy to let us tuck her into layers of blankets. The last few weeks have been tough for me with running. For the first time this year, I’ve been hit hard by allergies […]
Winter Balsamic Dressing
Things are tough for sweet Leela, we think her hearing is going as well as her vision and she wanders around the house more crashing into walls while seemingly not hearing us. She still likes walks when she wants to walk and she loves food, eating is her thing now. Hubby and I have gotten […]
Rain and Great Eats for the List
It’s been a great and relaxing weekend here so far with an easy run in the cool air this morning, shopping, seeing Thor with hubby, playing Mario Odyssey like a kid, and great eats. And we got rain! Just enough make the air crisp and fresh and give us this beautiful sunset last night as […]
Smoky Cheddar Dressing
Whoa, November already. I’m a little sad and glad Halloween is over, part of me wishes we celebrated it more with parties and haunted houses while the other part is glad to be done with the mid-week stress of it. I am actually looking forward to the cooler, rainy weather this weekend to see movies, […]
Final Vegan Chef Challenge Weekend for the List
Jeez the weather has been strange this year, right? But this looks like it might be our last warm weekend until 2018 so I guess I’d better enjoy one last day of wearing shorts before they’re stored away for the season. The pups are already in chilly fall weather mode enjoying a lazy day of […]
Middle of the Week Eats
Whew, it’s been a tough and draggy week here. I’ve been struggling to stay positive lately with so much ugly news, being crazy busy at work, and dealing with allergies and/or possibly a bug this week. But the weekend is getting closer, so there is that! And I’ve got sweet pups and a sweet hubby […]
Great Eats and Vegan Chef Challenge for the List
It’s starting to get cold here with temps in the 40s in the morning which is blanket snuggle weather for Miko! And soon it will be fireplace time which is Miko’s only favorite thing about winter. I am loving the signs of fall here, leaves are turning, pumpkins are everywhere, and I need to start […]
