It’s been a good weekend so far, productive and catching up on stuff around the house. Skipper’s vet appointment yesterday went okay, his blood sugar is still too high so his insulin dose has been increased and he goes back for another follow up next week. Giving him his insulin shots is getting tough, he’s […]
Creamy Balsamic Quinoa
Happy long Labor Day weekend! It’s been a leisurely day here with a trip to the gym, Whole Foods, and dog walks. But poor Skipper is getting a little tired of the summer heat, he crashed in grassy shady spots a few times during today’s walk. It took some gentle coaxing to get him moving […]
Avocado Asian Dressing
Woohoo, Friday is almost here. It’s been a long week chugging along with Skipper, he’s decided he doesn’t like the insulin shots for his canine diabetes and puts up a fight. I can’t blame him, getting a shot twice a day is no fun. It means I have to get creative and maybe a little […]
Raw Chili Sauce
Things are going better with Skipper, he’s actually gained nearly 2 lbs. which could be a result of the insulin shots for his canine diabetes. And his appetite isn’t so crazy, but he still loves treats. And making a mess all over our floors with them. The weather has been crazy here the last few […]
Creamy Tomato Soup
Hooray, Friday is almost here. And we’re still hanging in there with Skipper, it’s been almost two weeks with him now but feels longer since so much has happened. I’m adjusting to giving him insulin shots twice a day and updating my morning routine to include that before work. It’s still a nerve racking process […]
Thai Veggie Noodles
We’re hanging in there with Skipper, our rescued rat terrier that moved in with us last week, and learning to deal with his health challenges. He’s still sleeping in our backyard since he needs to pee so much with canine diabetes, but the barking issue is getting better. We’ve been spending more time with him […]
Cucumber Dill Soup
I’m still here, a little discombobulated after a few days of stress and trying to figure things out. Things have been a bit chaotic since Skipper, a lost/abandoned rat terrier, walked into our garage last Friday night looking for help. And he’s still very content here. And loves spending time with hubby on the couch. […]
Creamy Pesto Dressing
We’re still ticking along here with three dogs since a lost rat terrier decided to move in with us Friday. My mom sweetly watched all three dogs today while I was at work and getting them loaded into the car or just out for a walk is an ordeal! Hubby and I have been calling […]
Ginger Hemp Dip
What a week, I am ready for Friday. Lots going on at work, but things are back to normal at home with Miko enjoying plenty of cuddle time with hubby. And being his little gaming buddy. Busy weeks can be a bummer for me since I don’t have as much time as I’d like to […]
Creamy Broccoli Quinoa
Today was a crazy day at work, a one-thing-after-another day that at least flew by quick. And I came home to a quieter house since we’re no longer dog sitting my dad’s dog. I think Miko is a little sad to lose his buddy for the last two weeks though. He perked up for an […]
