I am screwed up this week between taking a few days off for camping last week, working Monday, then having yesterday off – what day is it? I’ll get back on schedule eventually here and caught up on sleep, having the 4th of July on a week night is kind of annoying when firework shows […]
Super Balsamic Basil Dressing
We’ve been enjoying that it hasn’t been as hot here with temps in the 80s and low 90s, Miko loves a little toy throwing time in the backyard. And I noticed our basil plant is going nuts, thriving in the crazy heat. Expect a lot of basil recipes from me over the next few weeks! […]
Raw Vegan Version of a Classic
Friday is almost here, thank goodness! And Miko is thankful for zucchini scraps he gets when I break out my vegetable spiral slicer. Summer approaching means soon zucchini will be everywhere here and I’m looking forward to loading up on massively huge ones at farmer’s markets just so I can use my spiral slicer for […]
Sweet and Spicy Tahini Brings a Salad to Life
I’ve officially completed my second hot vinyasa yoga class at Zuda Yoga thanks to ClassPass and I’m starting to really like it and get the hang of it, I’m tempted to work up to an advance level if I can fit the classes in with my current gym/work schedule. There is something very therapeutic and relaxing […]
Creamy Basil Dressing
Tuesdays aren’t my favorite day of the week. It’s still far from Friday and typically really busy at work and at the gym. It’s a long day that starts early in the morning when I drop the chihuahuas off at their daycare, or my mom’s house, before work and head to a busy gym right […]
Warming Balsamic Dressing
Tuesday … well at least it’s no longer Monday. Everyone is back from vacation at work this week, but things are not slowing down and I’m thinking I need to take a few days off! Maybe hang around the house and look pretty like Smokey. Or take the pups for long walks, Leela is always […]
Cauliflower Alfredo Dressing
Wow, tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Ready? I think I am, but I’m noticing more stress this year with a crazier work schedule around Christmas. Even Smokey is looking a little more stressed and she just hangs around the house. Miko is not happy with me for not making enough time to play with him. He’s […]
The Fix for Foodies & Pesto Quinoa
Yesterday I headed to Nevada City for a vegan meet up at The Fix for Foodies hosted by Kayle of Cowgirls & Collard Greens. I’ve been there before, but it’s been awhile, so I jumped at this opportunity to hang out with familiar vegan friends and meet new vegans. Nevada City is about an hour […]
Creamy Pesto Quinoa
It’s been a good weekend so far, productive and catching up on stuff around the house. Skipper’s vet appointment yesterday went okay, his blood sugar is still too high so his insulin dose has been increased and he goes back for another follow up next week. Giving him his insulin shots is getting tough, he’s […]
Creamy Tomato Soup
Hooray, Friday is almost here. And we’re still hanging in there with Skipper, it’s been almost two weeks with him now but feels longer since so much has happened. I’m adjusting to giving him insulin shots twice a day and updating my morning routine to include that before work. It’s still a nerve racking process […]
