I’ve been slacking this weekend, I know. But I have an excuse, it’s my birthday and I’ve been celebrating all weekend. Celebrating with a house full of dogs since we’re still dog-sitting my dad’s sweet dog. And giving this little guy lots of cuddles. I also made myself a luxury salad for lunch yesterday using […]
The Weekend
Another weekend flew by too fast, wow! It’s been a little chaotic here because we’re dog sitting again, this time for my dad’s husky mix while he’s out of town and she’s a sweetheart. But a little more of a challenge since she’s a senior dog, she takes medicine multiple times a day and needs […]
Vacation Wrap Up
We’re back home from Lake Tahoe after getting up early this morning, having a nice breakfast at the resort and driving home long before the traffic rush on 80. I’m glad to be home after such a fun and active vacation even though facing a mountain of dirty laundry emptied from the suitcases. And I […]
Great Eats and Views in Tahoe
Aw, I am still in vacation mode… what day of the week is it? Oh yeah, Happy 4th of July! We’ve been having a great time in Lake Tahoe the last few days hiking, biking, exploring, relaxing, and eating. Some notable eats from the last couple of days are this pineapple teriyaki veggie burger from […]
Hiking and Eating in Tahoe
Hello from Lake Tahoe! We’re getting away from the triple digit heat in our area this week to enjoy the 4th of July here! And I love taking road trip vacations because you can pack tons of stuff not worrying about airline luggage weight limits. :-) We took advantage of that by packing for hiking […]
Dill Obsessed
So happy the weekend is finally here even if it is stinking hot with a high of 109 degrees today and triple digits for the rest of the week! The pups are not happy with the heat, Leela has been moping around pouting about the lack of walks. We’ve been enjoying some time indoors catching […]
Raw Food For Dummies Event
Last night I attended a cool event at Baagan, one of my favorite local high-raw vegan restaurants where I’m obsessed their salad trio. Cherie Soria and Dan Ladermann of the Living Light Institute stopped by to promote their new book, Raw Food for Dummies. Of course I had to grab a copy to add to […]
Chocolate Brownie Balls
I can’t complain about this work week, it’s been much better than last week being shorter and not on call. But still happy tomorrow is Friday and I decided to celebrate early with hubby by stepping out to Baagan for lunch for this week’s salad trio – a unique shaved brussels sprouts, apple, and mustard […]
Mint Chocolate Pudding
Happy long Memorial Day weekend! We started celebrating early yesterday by eating out twice, yikes, I know! But it was so nice after a busy week. First I met hubby at Baagan for lunch for this weeks salad trio. A tasty pineapple glazed bok choy, walnut rice, and green salad with shiitake dressing. Then we […]
Dessert Rice, Kale Chips, & A Surprise Dinner
Back at Monday already, bummer. I thoroughly enjoyed a laid back and productive weekend and needed the down time to catch up and rest before the busy week of projects and being on call for work. And today was a busy start to the week that I’d like to forget by reliving the weekend highlights. […]
