It looks like it will be perfect weather for the Shamrock’n half marathon this weekend, can’t complain about highs in the 70s and slightly overcast. Let’s just hope my performance can hang in there too because my legs are feeling tired after my final speed training session at the gym. The pups will be ready for […]
Creamy Basil Quinoa
The weather is odd here, it’s not cold but it is cold … you know? Temps were in the 50s for my long run Sunday and it felt much colder thanks to the moisture and strong winds. I was really regretting not wearing running gloves by mile 6 when it became clear my hands weren’t […]
Creamy Thyme Dressing
Happy Valentine’s Day! Any plans? We’re stepping out for dinner, but nothing too fancy. It was difficult to make V-Day dinner reservations this year, a lot of local restaurants seemed to be doing pricey prix fixe style Valentine menus with little to no vegan options. I guess that makes sense business wise, less stress on […]
Lemony Fresh Dill Dressing
Happy Tuesday! Yeah, Friday would be better. I am feeling much better after Sunday’s 10k and had decent run at the gym today. I also got to chat with the young co-worker who smoked my time to congratulate her. Sadly she didn’t seem too impressed with her pace and was upset at the amount of […]
Creamy Dijon Quinoa with Kale
Yesterday we got a slight break in the rain and this gorgeous view. Today the all day rain was back and Miko back to refusing to go outside when when he could be toasting his belly instead. I got into dry toasting quinoa before cooking it. Previously I was fearful to get too aggressive with […]
Creamy Garlic Dressing
It has been raining non-stop for the last few days and is down-pouring outside now. I know this is a good thing, California always needs the rain. But I feel for those affected by flooding and getting a little tired of dogs refusing to outside in this weather. The winds are so strong, Miko still […]
Kicky Nacho Dressing
It is nice to feel almost human again, the last 36 hours have been rough with some stupid, annoying bug-thing running around at work. Ugh! Terrible headaches, body aches, no energy – it was pure evil that forced me to take a night off from training which runners hate. And many have been taking sick days because of […]
Lime Avocado Dressing with Flare
We have a house guest for the next few days, we’re dog sitting my mom’s, uh, hefty dog. And he’s camera shy hiding behind the couch when he sees it in my hand. So this is the best shot I could get just before he hid. What breed would you say he is? The shelter […]
Celebrate Summer
My schedule is still goofed up from our camping trip and getting a day off, lots of catch up and I have not been feeling too motivated after two very crazy days at work. I kind of wish I was still parked in a comfy chair at the campsite enjoying peaceful nature because it was nice to […]
Garlic Rosemary Dressing
We are so glad the weekend is almost here after a trying work week! Miko is looking forward to walk time in the perfect weekend weather. And I’m hoping things are quiet at work since I’m on call this weekend because they have not been this week. But I did get time to create a […]
