Hope everyone is having a great Sunday. I’m feeling relaxed this morning with cooler temps and overcast sky outside, perfect conditions for a run shortly. I also caught up on a lot of house work yesterday including a lot of vacuuming which the chihuahuas do not like. It’s been cooler this weekend and cloudy, a […]
Weekend List with New Protein
Miko has been happy to chill in the air conditioning with triple digit heat temps this weekend. Not Leela, when she gets bored and restless and wants a walk, she will tell us. It doesn’t matter that it’s uncomfortably hot and she’s just been out to the backyard, when she wants a walk – I […]
Nacho Avocado Dip
This week is almost over, whew! I’m looking forward to some fun this weekend too, the last few days at work have just seemed to drag on. I think I have summer fever, road trips and adventures sound much better in the sunny, warm weather than being in an office. So does having outdoor parties […]
Spicy Peanut Dressing
At Whole Foods over the weekend, I impulse bought a quinoa starter plant to add to our garden. It looks like a weed, I would never have guessed it produces such a hearty grain. From what I’ve been reading, we’re not gonna get much from it and it will only grow about 2′ tall. But […]
Making Broccoli A Decadent Dressing Again
Hello from Austin! We arrived today for Vida Vegan Con, my first one and sadly the last one of these conferences so I’m glad to be attending! I will have a ton of posts and pics coming soon when we have faster wifi. Before we left, I was getting the pouty look from Miko because he […]
Weekend List with Shopping Finds
Happy Memorial Day weekend! Ah, love long weekends especially after a wacky, busy week at work with a lot of projects and covering for people while they’re on vacation. But next week is my turn to go on vacation for a little adventure! We have been working on the garden, shopping, and relaxing so far this […]
Weekend List with Great News on Fruit
Whew, it’s been a week. Hubby was out of town on business travel which sounds like it should be relaxing having the house to myself, but it wasn’t! I usually try to take at least one day off work when he’s out of town to have a little down time with the house to myself to […]
Weekend List
Happy Mother’s Day! Poor Miko had a bad week, on Wednesday night I noticed one of his front teeth was loose and worried it was a painful problem for him. Our awesome, busy vet was able to fit him in for an early appointment the next morning and the poor guy spent all day there getting knocked […]
Raw Vegan Version of a Classic
Friday is almost here, thank goodness! And Miko is thankful for zucchini scraps he gets when I break out my vegetable spiral slicer. Summer approaching means soon zucchini will be everywhere here and I’m looking forward to loading up on massively huge ones at farmer’s markets just so I can use my spiral slicer for […]
Weekend List with a High Protein Comfort Meal
It’s been a quiet weekend for us with me being on call for work and dealing with an annoying cold! Our department has been passing around what seems like a few colds over the last month and it finally hit me. Ick, it’s been awhile since I’ve gone through this much tissue and not being […]
