July flew by too fast and I’m a little bummed it’s over, summer is going too quickly. But this summer themed recipe is not a bummer with a lighter, kicky peanut sauce and Explore Cuisine Organic Red Lentil Penne Pasta. With chopped broccoli, of course. I always must share when chopping broccoli, it’s Miko’s favorite. […]
Better Ginger Sesame Stir Fry Sauce
Awhile back, I found Vsoy Meatless Vegan Soy Beef Slices on Amazon for hubby to try as a quick beef alternative. The bag contains about 9 servings of dried soy “beef” you can store in your pantry. And simply hydrate in water for a few hours in your fridge before cooking. The soy slices really […]
Simple and Healthy
It has been hot here with triple digit heat the last few days. So the pups have been kept inside during the worst of the heat and Miko is not pleased with that. And it’s been a busy week for me with multiple appointments today, running around in the heat has been exhausting. Sweet hubby […]
Winter Blues Dressing
It’s been raining just a bit here, pretty much non-stop since Monday and we’re starting to see flooding in Northern California now. Thankfully not by us yet, but poor Miko has been very frustrated with the weather. We got a brief break in the rain this afternoon, hubby tried to get him out for a […]
Fun Eats & New Dressing
It has been a wild few days here with heavy rain and winds. Not complaining, California always needs it! But we have two very unhappy chihuahuas who refuse to go outside. Even our covered porch is a wind tunnel that Miko refuses. Crazy winter weather calls for steaming bowls of chili and hubby is amazing […]
Citrus Ginger Dressing
Happy New Year! Going back to work today was tough, but also nice after a few lazy days to get back into the routine. The pups are still very satisfied with their fireplace routine during the cold mornings and evenings. New Year’s Eve was pretty laid back for us, hubby made a great dinner using […]
Brazil Nut Dressing & Gift Guide
Whew, it’s been another crazy week here and it feels like time is flying and Christmas will be here like tomorrow! The pups aren’t stressing, they’re enjoying the fireplace fully relaxed. Miko leaves his toy in front of the fire a lot to warm it up. This time of year can bring on a lot […]
Fun Peanut Dressing
Miko loves his Lambchop toys so much I have to buy them in 3-packs to have backups on hand when one gets destroyed or is in the wash. He has a basket full of them that he loves to dig through and pick one for our evening toy throwing session. I dug out an ingredient […]
Better Curry Sauce
Ready for Thanksgiving? We are, it will be simple and low-key at our house with my mom and experimenting with new recipes and products. And maybe decorating the house and getting a Christmas tree over the long weekend with lots of relaxing and another family party. Miko is ready for his play date tomorrow with […]
Simple Meal Inspiration
This has been a busy week already and it’s only Tuesday. I haven’t been motivated to get creative in the kitchen yet this week with so much and sticking to keeping things simple and healthy. Like this tofu and cabbage saute with onions and broccoli, seasoned with tamari sauce, fresh grated ginger, and minced garlic. […]
