Whew, that weekend went by quick, boo. It was a productive weekend for us and a very lazy weekend for the pets with triple digit heat outside again. They were happy to chill inside, Skipper especially on his fur-covered hammock bed. Miko was happy to hog all the soft, clean blankets. Shadow preferred just crashing […]
Summer Dill Dressing & A Standing Desk
Awhile back I supported a Kickstarter for The UpStanding Desk and received one of the first desks off the production line for it this week! I’ve been curious about trying a standing desk for awhile after reading about all the benefits on LifeHacker, but not thrilled about the idea of buying a pricey desk to […]
Funky Eating
I’m here, really. I’ve been in a bit of a funk the last few days with a lot going on including a sick cat, sick family member, work, and other stresses. Miko was so sweet when I got home from work today ready to play and following me around the house. Shadow is hanging in […]
Sweet Carrot Dill Dressing
Summer is definitely here with more days of triple digit heat and Miko is ready to party all the time. He loves bringing us toys to throw and he has a collection of them stashed all over the house. Getting up early and heading into an office is tough when the sun is shining and […]
Banana Beet Dressing
TGIF! The pups agree, but they’re getting a little tired of all the rain we’ve been getting. I’m not, bring it! We need more! But I don’t need any more beets, I’m still working through the huge bunch we got in the last farm box even after adding chunks to smoothies every morning this […]
Kicky Avocado Dressing
On Sunday night, I headed to my first vegan potluck in Sacramento for a presentation by Jed Soliz of Team Veg. I played it safe taking a huge spinach meal salad with kidney beans and my avocado ranch dressing, but had a blast sampling many unique dishes other vegans brought including a curry couscous, Indian […]
Quick Dill Quinoa
Glad Monday is over, it was a crazy one at work that left me feeling a bit like mush when I got home. I would have started writing this post sooner, but mush brain here was easily distracted by LifeBuzz. Why have I not seen this site before? It’s still raining here and that’s great […]
Dilly Carrot Soup
I’ve been a member of my current gym now for 2 years. I originally joined because for $10 a month, it’s cheap treadmill access that’s close to work. But I’ve started using more of the weight machines and features of the gym to mix it up from home Bowflex workouts. In the last month it […]
Dilly Blue “Cheese” Dressing
It’s feeling more like winter here again and that’s a welcome thing after weeks of warmer drought weather, we actually got some rain last weekend and more is in the forecast for this week – yay! The house actually got chilly enough tonight for Leela to share a bed in front of the fireplace with […]
Avocado Ranch Dressing
Traditionally we take all the Christmas decorations and tree down on New Year’s Day. But we have a problem this year – Skipper will lose his favorite sleeping spot. The other dogs and cats prefer to sleep by the fireplace in the winter while he loves it under the tree. Maybe it’s happy memories from […]
