It is nice to be back home, we spent last week visiting family in Florida that started with a late flight Sunday night out of Sacramento. I tried to sleep on the flight and maybe got a decent 3 hours of sleep, but I am not a good plane sleeper. We arrived at Atlanta very […]
Flavorful Rice Alternative
Miko gets terribly bored with me when I come home from work and work more in our home office, his sad look is truly heartbreaking. And our evening walks have been very short the last couple of nights due to swarms of mosquitoes. Poor guy, but he was very ready to share dinner with me […]
Easy and Interesting Meals
I had every intention of having a new recipe ready this week, but that did not happen. Work has been crazy, on call has been crazy, we’re still eating through leftovers, and time has been an issue. Oh well! The fall trees are gorgeous here and we finished our Christmas tree. Both of our chihuahuas […]
Burgers and Adventure for the List
Happy National Dog Day. But every day is dog day here, us dog lovers spoil our dogs all the time. Miko got many long walks this weekend and couch cuddle time. It’s been an interesting week of simple eats that included salads with beans and hummus dressing, oil free veggie tofu stir fries, and simple […]
Vegan Ham & Great Eats
What a week and it’s only Wednesday. More like Thursday since I’m taking Friday off for a long weekend. I need it, we need it. And it’s supposed to rain all weekend here which is cool because we need that too. Our weather for Easter Sunday was perfect, I enjoyed a great morning run and […]
Simple Meal Inspiration
This has been a busy week already and it’s only Tuesday. I haven’t been motivated to get creative in the kitchen yet this week with so much and sticking to keeping things simple and healthy. Like this tofu and cabbage saute with onions and broccoli, seasoned with tamari sauce, fresh grated ginger, and minced garlic. […]
Getting Inspired for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday, I am thankful to have a 3 day weekend because I have been dealing with a nasty cold and/or bug that has been ripping through work and making a lot people miserable for weeks in some cases. I even had to take a sick day this week with a slight fever and extremely […]
Hunker Down for the Weekend List
Thank you for the kind words about Smokey, it’s still a sad adjustment. And yesterday morning I had to go back to the vet for the chihuahua’s annual checkup and shots appointment I scheduled awhile back and forgot about. Not fun being back there so soon after and the pups were really not happy to go, […]
Wrapping up 2016
First I’m kind of addicted to these 2016 memes, can you relate? After trying to avoid the crap storm a negative news and social media. And not successfully doing it, ugh. There were disappointments for everyone this year. I like to see the ups and downs of 2016 as a reminder to focus on the […]
More Easy Meals
Rain, rain, and lots of rain! It’s pretty much supposed to rain non-stop through Sunday … maybe even longer. Not a bad thing, we need it! But we’ll be seeing possible lightening storms on my 18-mile run day and I may be heading to the gym for that one. Boo, guess I’d better start finding […]
