I am finally starting to feel “normal” again after over a week of the flu, but getting back to the gym has been tough with a cough still sticking around. The sweet chihuahuas have been very patient despite the lack of walks during my sick time and now rain, poor guys. Smokey has been happy […]
Dijon Thyme Dressing
It’s been awhile since I’ve been sick, really sick with a fever and too weak and dizzy to walk. Sunday I cut my 6 mile run short when I started feeling funny and achy at mile 3. By the evening I had a triple digit fever, headache, cough, and achy. Apparently there were multiple bugs being passed around […]
Snow and Great Eats for the Weekend List
It has been a week here preparing for Christmas and working. Usually working over the holidays does not bother me too much, but this year seemed extra stressful for some reason and I really did not want to be at the office on Christmas Eve with everyone else on vacation. Better put in for extra […]
Veggie Ginger Rice
The pups are a little annoyed with me and the weather, it’s been windy and raining the last two days. That’s great, we need it in California! But even Leela won’t step outside when wind gusts rush inside as soon as I open the door. Thankfully we get a break in the rain tonight and […]
Unlucky Potluck for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday! I just finished our last bit of gift wrapping and planning to venture out on a run in the overcast and cold weather shortly. I had a productive day yesterday of wrapping, finishing up holiday donations, and shopping at Trader Joe’s. Not enjoying the holiday traffic and sharing the roads with so many stressed out […]
Golden Beet Dressing
Wow, Christmas is less than a week away! And I’ll be spending a good chunk of the weekend recipe planning and grocery shopping between seeing Star Wars with hubby and running. I wonder if Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods will be crowded?! It’s all good and I’m ready to enjoy low-key family gatherings because it was a […]
New Look for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday, hope everyone is having a great weekend. Getting there with making over this site, what do you think so far? Winter weather is in full swing today, rain and a severe wind advisory for most of the day. The dogs want nothing to do with it and refuse to even step out to […]
Easiest Lemon Hemp Dressing
Our Christmas tree is finally up and I put enough lights on it for a few trees I think! Christmas cheer is in the house too, these two have been peacefully sharing the cuddle cube bed in front of the fireplace which is rare. And lemon trees are in full bloom, I scored a huge […]
Butternut Sage Dressing
Leela has been a little antsy lately, restlessly following me around the house. And even doing her cute little meerkat pose at the dinner table for extra attention and carrot nibbles. Maybe the holiday stress is getting to her. Or maybe she can’t wait for her presents. I think she’s gonna love the new bed we got her. […]
Weekend List
Happy relaxing Sunday, I hope it’s been a good weekend so far and it’s not too hectic with Thanksgiving planning. I’m planning a trip to Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s later today and not entirely looking forward to the crowds, but I’ll still have fun because how can shopping at Whole Foods not be fun? […]
