We’re trying to enjoy some downtime this week and relax after crazy times at work. Things are still crazy, but not on call with hours of overtime crazy. But we are having fake grass installed in a large chunk of our backyard this week which I’m so excited about! Drought friendly and will always look […]
Decompressing for the Weekend List
After such a busy week and last weekend working, it’s been nice to decompress a bit this weekend and actually have time to play Zelda on the Nintendo Switch I got for my birthday. My schedule and shopping routine have been seriously out of whack the last few weeks and eats have been an interesting […]
Summery Avocado Dressing
Things have been a little crazy this week, I think I’m still behind from working the weekend and having a tough time with Leela not wanting to take her antibiotics. They’re larger pills that she is being so stubborn with even pill pocket treats aren’t working. However, chopping the pills up into 3 pieces and […]
Working Hard for the List
I am always looking for new ways to reduce our use of disposable plastic products, but freezer bags are the best for storing bananas and other frozen fruits and veggies for smoothies. I try to reuse those for as long as I can, but they don’t wash or wear well with frequent loading and freezing. […]
Creamy Dill Hummus Dressing
Whew, popping in with a quick summer recipe because it’s hot and I am wiped after a busy week so far. Sigh, and I’ll be working some on the weekend too, guess I’ll be thankful for the over time. Sweet Miko is always there to be a buddy at dinner time and ready in case […]

Or more broccoli and carrots because suddenly she’s a huge fan of them too now. You’ll want more of this comforting and […]
Birthday Fun for the Weekend List
It’s official, I’m 40. And not bothered by it. I am a little about going back to the grind tomorrow after 4 fabulously fun days of celebrating. I took Thursday and Friday off just to have a long weekend to play. It started Wednesday night with hubby making this great green curry veggie dish for […]

Birthday Week Fun
I’m not 40 yet, but having a little fun starting the celebration this week. Miko, as always, has been the sweetest lap buddy. He and Leela got new padded Kong collars because his old one was getting a little ratty and I noticed it seemed to irritate his neck last week. So they’re both styling […]
Summer Fun for the Weekend List
Hello and happy Sunday. I am am sitting here drinking coffee and trying to prep myself for an early run and dog walk before it gets too hot because today’s high will be 108. It’s been an interesting week month so far. Typically July is a great month for me even though it’s hot as […]
