The last few days at work have been an insane blur, 12-hours of doing way too much at once scrambling to meet project deadlines. It’s been interesting packing breakfast, lunch, and dinner which have been smoothies, salads, Trader Joe’s frozen vegan meals, and vegan snack bars. Not terribly exciting, but functional, healthy, and way better […]
Another Lentil Curry Dish
Our weather went from triple-digit heat to the 60s and rainy today. Lovely, isn’t it? But that’s okay because I had to work all day and got to cross watering the garden off my daily chore list. But one lazy chihuahua did not want to get out of bed this morning to head to her […]
Curried Lentil Stew
I’m getting so excited about our home office redo, I can’t wait to have more of a workspace. I ran by Home Depot and Lowes at lunch today looking for paint color ideas and fell in love with this Lime Mousse color for the walls. What do you think? Seems like it’ll be perfect with […]
My Lentil Obsession Continues
Hubby stopped by Target on the way home and picked up a new cat scratcher while loading up on the usuals. Problem is he only got one which Smokey parked her round bottom on and Shadow pouted while patiently waiting his turn. After 15 minutes of drama, he relocated Smokey so the poor guy could […]
Sprouted Lentils & Eggplant
Happy Thursday … wait, it’s only Wednesday. Rats! At least it hasn’t been a bad week. And we’re getting absolutely perfect weather here, bright, sunny, in the 60s with a slight breeze and I can’t complain about that. Or the beefcake I was treated to when I checked the mail. And for once he was […]
Just Chilling
Ah, Friday. Feel that? The load lifting to a couple of days of relaxation? Assuming my weekend on call is quiet, of course. After a long week, frigid weather and a mild sinus headache, we were happy to have a relaxing night at home tonight playing dueling chefs in the kitchen creating dinners. Plus I […]
Southwestern Corn Stew
This has been a quiet week at work and that’s alright with me, it’s nice to enjoy a little low time before charging into the new year. Time to continue to snap away with our new camera, my poor pets. But I just love the lighting and detail of this shot, the flash on my […]
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! I hope everyone that celebrates is having an amazing one. I sure am! And I’ve been spending lots of time playing in the kitchen making creations for family gatherings. Last night we had a mini gathering at one of my sister’s houses and I threw together a double batch of Simple Green Lentil […]
Simple Lunch & A Whatever Dinner
What a week, I’m so glad I’m taking tomorrow off! It won’t be entirely relaxing though, I have a list of errands and tasks to do at home like wrap gifts, meal plan, shop. Though I’m not looking forward to the errand part so much, holiday road madness is in full force! Why does something […]
Lentil Quinoa Chili
So happy this week is almost over! I’ve been on call for work and getting a lot of night calls this week and I’m feeling the lack of sleep. But enough whining, every once in awhile I get a thank you gift at work from co-workers happy to have working computers. Today I got one […]
