I had to throw the towel in and email my doctor because after 2 weeks the cough and cold symptoms were not going away. So I’m on 5 days of antibiotic to tame possible infections which can cause other challenges killing good bacteria too. So I’m throwing in more pro and prebiotics this week with […]
Cherry Dijon Dressing
We’re still kind of waiting for spring here with more rain and storms this week, the pups seem especially frustrated with rain interrupting evening walks. Poor Miko rushes out to the back yard excited for fresh air, comes to a halt and looks back at me and pouts about the rain. But I am not […]
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 […]
New Shopping & Avocado Dressings
I am very happy because a new Sprouts Farmers Market opened this week near us and the location is perfect for stopping on the way home from work. And just wow at the vegan options, I was overwhelmed with so many new products to try! Can’t wait to try the Organic Green Lentil Lasagne! And […]
Roasted Curry Chickpeas
I love chickpeas in just about all forms, I could probably eat them daily and not get tired of them. And that’s what I’m doing this week since I slow cooked an entire 25 oz. bag to use during the week. And it makes a lot! Perfect for fast salads, stir fries, and even pet […]
More Stuff We Ate
Did you get any eclipse action? I snapped this crappy shot on my phone through eclipse glasses outside of the office while enjoying a fresh air break from work. Miko was not really impressed with it, he just wanted to cuddle after work. Sunday I stepped out for a girl’s lunch with my mom and […]
Fake Grass and Fun Eats for the List
Sunday night already, boo this weekend flew by too fast! But it was also a productive weekend. We had fake grass professionally installed for half of our backyard last week, the half that is closest to the door – easy for the dogs to get to. And on the side I’ve always had problems maintaining […]
Life & Simple Meals
I am pretty happy this week is almost over and I didn’t get called in for jury duty, woohoo! I was on call having to check each night to see if needed the next day this week, so that was a relief. And it actually got chilly here again this week – lows in the […]
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 […]
Vegan Curry Yum
All is going smoothly for the pups this week, Leela has claimed her ratty old bed back and Miko patiently waiting for more play time. I am so glad Friday is almost here! It’s been a week with a lot of people in our department still out with the flu and me keeping my fingers […]
