Leela is getting revenge. She’s put up with Miko stealing parts of her dinners and breakfasts for years because she’ll only eat part and come back for more later … if there’s anything left. Not anymore! She’s been going after what’s left in Miko’s bowl this week and seems to have more of an appetite. Can’t […]
This Nut-free Cake Pleases Everyone
I’m still recovering from the fun-loaded weekend after being on call for work, celebrating, running errands, and our Easter celebration. I need a weekend from the weekend! But it all went good and we had a huge and active Easter celebration at my sister’s house with family, friends, and way too much food. Thanks to […]
How Banana Makes A Salad Decadent
Hooray for the weekend almost being here. Leela and Miko agree, they’d like more walks and play time. And more carrots, they both come running into the kitchen now when I’m chopping carrots for a salad. Keeping a little container of chopped carrot “coins” in the fridge have been great, healthy, and inexpensive treats for […]
Chocolate Mousse Cake
Miko has discovered a new game called stash treats in the couch. I found quite a few cleaning over the weekend which made him very excited. The thought of heading back to Las Vegas makes me excited because I have a soft spot for the Wynn Las Vegas. I did a huge report and presentation on […]
Weekend List
Boo on losing an hour this weekend, I feel it! Miko doesn’t seem to notice, he’s been up to the usual of making sure the floor around our dining table is clean. And Smokey’s usual is carefully observing what’s going on around the house. I’ve been having no stress this weekend, playing with projects such […]
Why Kale Makes Pesto Better
Whew, Friday is almost here. Pesto is awesome, right? It’s creamy, rich, savory, decadent, and has a lovely garlic kick. But the traditional recipes are too decadent packed with oil and cheese, it’s a greasy way to add too many calories, a nutritional nightmare! Basil is tasty and it smells heavenly. But it’s nutritional profile […]
Creamy Basil Dressing
Tuesdays aren’t my favorite day of the week. It’s still far from Friday and typically really busy at work and at the gym. It’s a long day that starts early in the morning when I drop the chihuahuas off at their daycare, or my mom’s house, before work and head to a busy gym right […]
Curry Ginger Banana Soup
Leela is not a happy camper after her vet appointment yesterday. Her sniffling cold has been hanging around for the last week, so to the vet she went to find out why. Turns out she has a sinus infection, got a shot, and has to take 4 pills a day for awhile now. Poor girl! […]
Creamy Hemp Sriracha Dressing
Ah Tuesday, at least you’re not Monday. Smokey is happy any day of the week and has been especially clingy and lovey lately following us around the house and carefully watching what’s going on. I worry that she may be a little lonely, but pretty sure she wouldn’t appreciate not being queen of the house […]
Weekend & Avocado Miso Dressing
Hi and happy Superbowl Sunday! We’re having a casual family gathering where I’ll be enjoying the company and commercials more than the game. And trying not to eat too many chips and guacamole! Friday hubby and I headed to Tower Bridge Bistro again for this weekend’s vegan menu and sampled everything between us. The charred […]
