Leela is still adjusting to the new bed arrangement where I removed the pile of messy blankets and replaced with their cozy cave beds in front of the fireplace, she’s been cuddling up to hubby trying to get her blankets back. I might cave and put the blankets back, but it nice having less bedding to […]
When Avocado with Kick is Fabulous
We finally got a little bit of rain here this week. No where near enough to make a dent in the scary drought conditions, but enough to make the dogs protest going outside to do their business. Miko is so funny when he thinks it’s too cold and wet outside, he curls his tail and butt in, […]
Another Awesome Ginger Dressing
Friday is almost here and Miko is ready, he thinks we’ve been working too much and not playing with him enough. I agree! Time to start thinking about using vacation time! He did enjoy the little bits of carrot I fed him while making this dressing because can you ever really get tired of tahini […]
Sweet Broccoli Curry Soup
Spring is starting to show up here, I spent some time admiring our blooming tree in the backyard with a beautiful sunset. And Miko was not happy with me for forgetting to let him out too, oops! Yes, that is a holiday mat. So what? :-) We have not bought new ones for spring yet. […]
Simple Greens to Combat Chaos
This may sound tired, but I’m ready for the weekend. Things have been a little crazy around here this week starting with work, we have tons of projects going on and problems popping up causing me to leave late and frazzled. Sunday my web host disabled this site due to a “suspicious” traffic increase. Since […]
Fiery Cilantro Dressing
Things are finally getting back to normal here with hubby thankfully feeling better, but I’m already ready for the weekend. Miko doesn’t mind us being sick if it means more lap time for him. But I mind the dragging days at work and lack of energy. It’s been awhile since I’ve been stuck with a […]
Curry Fava Bean Salad
Doesn’t Smokey look so comfy? She just loves my pillow and never misses an opportunity to make make herself at home on it when I forget to make the bed further reminding me that I’m out of my game this week still recovering from a bladder infection and slightly goofed up on antibiotics. Ugh, I’ve […]
Raw Zucchini Guacamole
Our Memorial Day weekend is going wonderfully so far, I’ve enjoyed plenty of down time at home catching up on home projects and spending time with hubby. We even nailed down a plan for our new home office using Floor Planner, a pretty powerful home tool for free! We picked out all the furniture from […]
Curry Chickpea Stew
Well happy Monday, I hope it treated everyone well. Mine was okay, but I felt pretty scattered at work trying to get back into the grind while mentally preparing for the holidays. Monday’s aren’t typically my most productive days, so adding a layer of holiday complication did not help! Luckily I got it together by […]
VEGANMOFO & Spinach Soup
The first day of one of my favorite months and it’s almost Friday, this week is looking up. As we continue to settle into fall weather, I’m increasingly looking at my budget to get a Vita Mix for warmer, smoother soups and smoothies. I’m also drooling over new fall boots while reminding myself I have […]
