It has been a packed and fun weekend, I’m a little sad to see it end. It’s also been a little chilly and windy as we shift to fall weather, Miko has been happy to snuggle in his blankets on lazy mornings. After months of research and getting burned out with too many options, we […]
Simple Sweet Apple Dressing
We’ve been getting some more rain here the last few days and some frustrated and bored chihuahuas who want more walks. Leela has even been stalking me around the house for any hint of leash time. Rain outside is no problem with kale growing away in the AeroGarden inside, here’s what the kale looks like […]
Spicy Citrus and Ginger to Wake Up a Salad
Leela is getting revenge. She’s put up with Miko stealing parts of her dinners and breakfasts for years because she’ll only eat part and come back for more later … if there’s anything left. Not anymore! She’s been going after what’s left in Miko’s bowl this week and seems to have more of an appetite. Can’t […]
Healthy Donuts & Orange Tahini Dressing
I’m almost ready for Christmas, most of the shopping is done, packages shipped, decorations up, etc. Time to relax and enjoy the festivities! Miko agrees, he has a new reindeer squeaky toy thanks to my mom and is happy to enjoy the decorated fireplace. I enjoyed another vegan meetup this weekend at a new vegan […]
Citrus Tahini Dressing
It has been chilly, overcast, and rainy this weekend. So the dogs have either been in my lap or in front of the fireplace. Rough life, huh? One great thing about winter here is our little tangerine tree explodes with tangerines. And they’re all starting to get ripe, woohoo! I used one in this simple […]
Cinnamon Banana Dressing
Wow, October is here already! It’s an awesome month for vegans in Northern California starting with the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge running during the entire month. Basically a bunch of restaurants create fabulous vegan menus to compete against each other for votes and anyone can try these unique dishes and vote for their favorites. It’s […]
Hemp-gurt Dressing
Whew, that weekend went by quick, boo. It was a productive weekend for us and a very lazy weekend for the pets with triple digit heat outside again. They were happy to chill inside, Skipper especially on his fur-covered hammock bed. Miko was happy to hog all the soft, clean blankets. Shadow preferred just crashing […]
Kale Apple Soup
Every evening here is a dinner eating competition between Skipper and Miko, who can finish their bowl of V-Dog fastest? And move on to each others bowl to clean anything that was left behind. Then hang out in the kitchen and beg while we’re making dinner. We have routines in this house! I had a […]
Apple Broccoli Soup
It’s actually cold and rainy here today and Miko is not a happy camper, he’d rather snuggle up inside than go outside and do his doggy business. It takes a little extra coaxing to get him to the backyard and he usually stays under the overhang and refuses to step out into the rain. Skipper, […]
Smokey Apple Dressing
Wow, this week has flown by with busy work days and new toy excitement with my new iPad. I’ve been spending plenty of time playing Plants vs. Zombies 2, it’s slightly addicting and even more fun on a larger screen. Skipper has been doing good, he seems to be doing better with his current insulin […]
