Wow, this week has flown by with busy work days and new toy excitement with my new iPad. I’ve been spending plenty of time playing Plants vs. Zombies 2, it’s slightly addicting and even more fun on a larger screen. Skipper has been doing good, he seems to be doing better with his current insulin […]
Baked Kabocha for the Weekend List
Happy fall back, we’ll be changing all the clocks in the house today – yay. But at least it will be light for driving to work in the morning for a little longer. On the other hand, the sun will be setting much earlier and soon it will be dark when I go to work […]
Curried Comfort Food
Well hello, Monday, what are you doing back so quick? It was a productive weekend banging out chores and pulling off a 9-mile run for half marathon training. After a day full of rain Saturday it’s starting to feel like fall here finally! The pups are enjoying the cooler temps. It’s almost chilly at night […]
Lemon Dill Lentils and Quinoa
Happy weekend, finally! It’s been a long week at work and being on call after hours while adjusting to Skipper’s new insulin shot schedule twice a day. Yesterday I was feeling tired and cranky most of the day. It was hot and the air quality here was pretty smokey from a nearby wildfire, so I […]
Curry Tahini Quinoa
I meant to post this last night, but work had a different plan. It’s been that kind of week here with lots crammed in. I woke up this morning thinking it was Thursday because of the long days and was slightly depressed when I realized it was only Wednesday. At least the dogs were happy […]
Split Lentils and Broccoli Stew
This has been a strange week at work with announcements of possibly big changes ahead in our department and plenty of work. Sleep has not been super easy with so much on my mind and I get a little cranky when I’m tired. I understood road rage a lot more this morning when a teenager […]
Ginger Lentils & Quinoa
This post is slightly all over the place with odds and ends from the week, but that’s about where I am after a busy week. Thank goodness the weekend is here and I just booked a week long vacation for us in July, I already feel relaxed and can’t wait! Finding good vegan shoes for […]
Easter Weekend
Even though it was a busy weekend, I still miss it! I had a great 6-mile run Saturday training for an upcoming 12k race. And had enough energy to take the dogs for a long walk after to visit grazing sheep in our neighborhood. They all came to the fence to get a closer look […]
Long Weekend List
Wow, this long weekend is buzzing by, very thankful to have today off work too! So far it’s been a pretty quiet weekend at home catching up on house projects, lots of laundry, grocery shopping, and other unexciting, pedestrian chores. Great to get those caught up on for sure, but I’m hoping to get out […]
Creamy Zucchini Dill Dressing
Leela is having a rough night parked in front of the fireplace. Can’t blame her, it’s been chilly here in the mornings and evenings, I had to find a little extra motivation to get out of bed this morning in the cold and dark. And I had a serious case of the Mondays yesterday after […]
