The last few days have been a drag for the pups, not enough walks with all the wind and rain. There has been a lot of pouting. And nasty looks. For some reason I have become obsessed with smoky flavors with all the rain, there’s something savory and comforting about a hot, smoke-seasoned dish. Where […]
Hemp Heart Alfredo Dressing
We have been getting lots of rain and wild storms the last few days, the beautiful views of the clouds from our backyard have been breath taking. Rainbows and sunshine rain at the same time – such a gorgeous show from nature. And I am feeling better, working on more deep breathing, meditating, and listening […]
Getting Better for the Weekend List
I am feeling much better and even had two decent training runs at the gym and a just okay long run outside today. The weather has not been very spring-like the last few days with chilly rain and storms. Since we’re getting sunshine today, we had to take advantage of that for yard work and long […]
Smokey and Light Cheezy Sauce
Leela and I seem to be on the same page this week – we’d prefer hiding in soft, warm blankets all day. Only she actually gets to do it. Rough life. That’s okay, I get to enjoy this creamy, savory, and smokey cheezy sauce. There are tons of vegan cheese sauce recipes out there, so […]
Gingery Stir Fry Sauce
Yesterday we got a break in the rain for a pretty awesome view of spotty showers from our backyard. And no rain today before it comes back all day tomorrow which poor Miko won’t be thrilled about. Better get in one last long walk this evening! Last night I got a little crazy with a […]
Avocado House Dressing
It looks like it will be perfect weather for the Shamrock’n half marathon this weekend, can’t complain about highs in the 70s and slightly overcast. Let’s just hope my performance can hang in there too because my legs are feeling tired after my final speed training session at the gym. The pups will be ready for […]
Great Eats and Community for the List
Happy Sunday! I love weekend mornings to enjoy quiet times sipping coffee and catching up on email while not worrying about rushing for work. Currently I’m motivating myself for and thinking about today’s long run while the weather figures out what it’s doing. The hourly forecast showed no rain for the next few hours, but […]
Creamy Dijon Roasting Sauce
Ah, thank goodness the weekend is almost here! There is more rain in our weekend forecast, but I’m not gonna let that bug me for Sunday’s training run. At least that’s the plan, we’ll see. :-) Sweet Leela has been very clingy and hungry lately and even tolerates more hugs. I worry about her because […]
Working Through the Forks Over Knives Program
Today was the last day of rain for a few days at least and thank goodness! It literally rained all day yesterday nonstop. Miko was not even interested in the backyard, but happy to cuddle in his favorite blanket. I know we should be thankful for the rain and I am, this is the wettest […]
Creamy Dijon Quinoa with Kale
Yesterday we got a slight break in the rain and this gorgeous view. Today the all day rain was back and Miko back to refusing to go outside when when he could be toasting his belly instead. I got into dry toasting quinoa before cooking it. Previously I was fearful to get too aggressive with […]
