Friday is almost here and I’m having a glass of wine to celebrate it. No, this post isn’t going Whine About It style, but I would like a wine glass that large. The problem with being really busy at work and maybe a little drained from marathon training is I’m just not feeling getting creative […]
New Hummus Dressing & Fall Treats
I’m sad the last watermelon I picked up was pretty flavorless and weak, I guess I should be thankful I can still buy them in October. But it’s time to focus on winter squash – glorious winter squash and lots of it! I can see going through 3 squashes a week just by myself and […]
Life & Fitness
Good news, Friday is almost here! And here’s what the tomato plants look like in the AeroGarden after 33 days. From seed to a tomato jungle in a month! The plants are starting to flower and we get to cross pollinate them with a little brush when the flowers are big enough soon. My Sunday […]
Avocado Blue Cheese Dressing
It must be getting closer to Friday because Miko is pouting at me again for being busy all week. I feel like pouting too after this work week, but there is a long and awesome weekend to look forward to! And check out the kale in the AeroGarden after only 14 days! It really is growing about […]
Ginger Herb Dressing
Leela was having a case of the Mondays yesterday and perfectly happy to hide in her bed. Can’t blame her, it was tempting when my alarm went off. Smokey stayed parked on her favorite couch blanket all day. Not a bad way to spend Monday for sure! I spent some of it getting creative with […]
Zingy Avocado Dressing
The chihuahuas have a serious case of the lazies this week and are sticking to their cozy fireplace beds. At most they shift to a different blanket or bed. And occasionally fight over who gets to claim the fuzzy red blanket. Rough life and I’m actually very jealous with such a busy week at work. […]
Sprouts and Rain for the Weekend List
Wow, Sunday got here quick! Busy weeks fly by and nice, long runs outside help balance out the stress. We got a break in the rain last Sunday for a 7-mile run in the morning, perfect before being inside the rest of the day working on projects during the rain. I got in a little […]
Creamy Asian Dressing
We’re supposed to be getting many days of chilly rain this week and that’s a good thing, we need it. Except sharing the warm fireplace isn’t always easy, Smokey gets a little cranky when Miko gets in the way of her favorite show. And Miko likes to lay his toys out at the fireplace to warm them […]
Cheesy Butternut Curry Sauce
With temps dropping to the 30s, hubby sweetly turned on the fireplace so winter has officially begun here! And Miko is thrilled! You can find him toasting his belly when it’s on and pouting in front of it when it’s off. And me creating recipes with winter squash. This Vegan Curried Pumpkin Cheese Sauce inspired […]
Weekend List
Happy, relaxing Sunday, hope everyone is having a good weekend. I’m planning to actually buy pumpkins today, I’ve been so busy the last few weekends with travel and running that I just haven’t yet and feeling jealous looking at all the cool pumpkins on display at my neighbors houses. And maybe go for a long […]
