It’s been a low-key weekend here, we didn’t even step out to eat because I spent some time working this weekend. Ugh, I hope things settle down soon. It was another hot weekend and Miko was perfectly happy to chill inside with us. I did get out for some runs to take in the scenery, […]
Melting for the List
Ugh, we are melting here with a high of 110 degrees. The weather has been so strange this week, but triple digits every day for the next 10 days is a little depressing. It was already hot when I got up at 6:30 am this morning and had to get Miko out on a long […]
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 […]
Kale Avocado Pesto
Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope it’s a good day and people are celebrating love. I am celebrating protein with this recipe using a fun grocery find – Tolerant Simply Legumes Organic Green Lentil Pasta. We’re having lots of fun trying alternative, high protein pasta lately and at 21 grams of protein per serving, this pasta […]
Simple Sriracha Dressing
As you know, Miko loves heat this time of year and would be happy to live in front of a fireplace or space heater. Warm and comforting is good, especially for the winter! So is spicy heat, I tend to prefer spicier foods with warming flare more during the winter – hot curries, hot chili, […]
Keeping Busy for the Weekend List
Whew, it has been a week and a crazy weekend! And I still have a lot to do which I’m thankful for. It’s been cold and foggy here too and the views from our morning dog walks have been gorgeous. Miko’s idea of a good weekend is plenty of fireplace toasting, especially in the chilly […]
Creamy Kale Sauce
Getting back to work this week has been tough after a long and relaxing weekend, I’m kind of glad the weekend is near. I finally got the Christmas tree up and decorated and the boxes put back away. I didn’t finish it Sunday because after I finished getting all the lights on, a fuse blew […]
Winter Balsamic Dressing
Things are tough for sweet Leela, we think her hearing is going as well as her vision and she wanders around the house more crashing into walls while seemingly not hearing us. She still likes walks when she wants to walk and she loves food, eating is her thing now. Hubby and I have gotten […]
Better Peanut Dressing
Sweet Leela continues to mellow with age, she enjoys long naps after walks and pretty much most of the day. She even lets Miko share her bed without protest now which would have been unacceptable not that long ago. Miko wanted to share this dressing with me, but that wasn’t happening with sriracha in it! […]
Dog Treats & Tahini Rosemary Dressing
While at Barktoberfest on Sunday, I scored freebie bags of Bixbi Sweet Potato & Apple Flavor Bark Pops and have never heard of these before. I was surprised to find this flavor is plant based with a not-so-scary ingredient list. They’re like puffy, crunchy snack puffs for dogs. And Miko is a fan, both the […]
