Fall might actually be near with highs only in the 80s and lows in the 50s this week, woohoo! And Miko is ready for fireplace snuggling. Soon, buddy! I might even buy pumpkins this weekend, can’t wait! Turmeric is an interesting “superfood” with a lot of promised health benefits. After a quick google, I’m pretty […]
Great Race for the List
Whoa, where did the weekend go already? It’s been a good weekend, productive and I had a great 10-mile race yesterday and great run at the gym today. Friday night I made a simple pre-race dinner of curried lentils and quinoa with veggies, quinoa or any simple grain dish seems to be a great pre-race […]
Getting Back To Normal
I am still trying to get back to some sort of schedule for recipe creation, but it’s been tough the last few weeks with a lot of chaos. Oh well, soon. After insane triple digit heat and smoke over last weekend, it was in the 80s with a breeze today! We might actually get fall! […]
Lazy for the Long Weekend List
I have just been lazy and running late the last week with posts, I blame the heat and just feeling overall drained after dealing with triple-digit temps for over a week now. I am really enjoying our long weekend, we took Friday off too and I’m not sure I’m ready to go back to work […]
Surviving the Heat
Ugh on the heat here this week, over triple digits for the next week and 111 degrees for Friday and Saturday! Odd and scary to be this hot this time of year. It’s been sucking my energy and makes everything feel slower and dragging. Including poor Leela, lately taking her on walks has been even […]
Heat and Fun Eats for the Weekend List
Whew, it is hot today with a high of 105 degrees! I got the dogs out for a walk early this morning before the heat kicked in, but it still wiped poor Leela out who has been crashed in the air conditioning all day. Bummer is we’re supposed to get triple digits all week with […]
More Stuff We Ate
Did you get any eclipse action? I snapped this crappy shot on my phone through eclipse glasses outside of the office while enjoying a fresh air break from work. Miko was not really impressed with it, he just wanted to cuddle after work. Sunday I stepped out for a girl’s lunch with my mom and […]
Simple and Fast for the Weekend List
Wow, another weekend flew by too fast! And Miko was hoping for more walk time this weekend, but enjoyed snooze time in the office with me and hubby and I while watching Ozark and Defenders on Netflix. I did find a new kitchen gadget to try – the Kuhn Rikon Stay Clean Scrubber as an […]
Spicy Kimchi Dressing
Fall must be near because it’s been chilly enough to need a jacket for our morning dog walks this week. Exciting! And Miko would rather hide in his pile of blankets than step outside. This dressing will warm you up with fiery and creamy flare thanks to a fun product hubby found at Costco – […]
Fake Grass and Fun Eats for the List
Sunday night already, boo this weekend flew by too fast! But it was also a productive weekend. We had fake grass professionally installed for half of our backyard last week, the half that is closest to the door – easy for the dogs to get to. And on the side I’ve always had problems maintaining […]
