Happy New Year! But I am sad that we lost Betty White just before. What a legend and such a talented icon. I started watching Golden Girls again yesterday on Hulu and wowed at how edgy of a show it was and holds up today. It’s been a relaxing and cold long weekend here, Miko […]
Wintery Weekend for the List
We are getting lots of wind and rain over the next few days and not complaining! Miko has been very happy to snooze in warm blankets and on warm laps instead of facing the strong wind outside. When not sleeping, he’s ready on his dining “podium” to share meals with me and really into the […]
Celebrations for the List
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. We had two, a small one with my parents on Thanksgiving, then a large one with all the family on Saturday. Both great and it’s been an interesting week here. Late after work on Wednesday, I got a call from my mom that she had taken in a […]
Cauli Crumble Holiday Mac
These are interesting times which seems like an understatement. When I first started this blog, I was on a passionate mission to adopt a healthy, high raw plant based lifestyle and enjoyed spending lots of time in the kitchen experimenting with recipes and new kitchen toys. That has waned over the years and especially now […]
Wild Weather for the List
As you may have heard, we are getting just a little bit of rain this weekend – it has pretty much been downpouring with lots of wind since last night and we’ve spent the entire day indoors. Not complaining, it’s much needed! Miko has been very frustrated about no walks today and not even wanting […]
Working the Vegan Chef Challenge for the List
What a week it has been, I was glad to get to the weekend and now sad it’s over. I think Miko is too, he’s been enjoying lazy mornings and movie cuddle time. Last Sunday we headed out for a hike to get in fresh air in the cooler weather and it was wonderful, so […]
More Vegan Chef Challenge for the List
Fall is finally here and it is wonderful with highs in the 70s this weekend. It has not been a wonderful week for Miko who started coughing pretty bad on Monday and went to the vet. I was terrified it was his heart condition escalating even though his breathing rate was okay, but it appears […]
October and Vegan Chef Challenge for the list
Woohoo, October is finally here and so is the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge! And there is a great list this year. We started out by meeting some friends at Pho Fresh last night to try their Vegan Chef Challenge menu and it did not disappoint! We managed to try almost everything on the menu between […]
Many Great Eats for the list
Hope you’re having a good weekend, it’s not as hot here with okay air quality finally which means lots of walks for Miko. Can’t wait until it’s cool enough to take him on more adventures locally. Miko is doing okay, he has started coughing more which is concerning and the cardiologist he saw in April […]
Getting Out for the List
Whoa, Sunday again after another weekend that flew by too fast. Not for Miko, he has been enjoying some serious napping when not begging during meals. I have been trying to use up garden veggies in simple eats, we are getting lots of summer squash to mix into soy curl sautés and tofu stir fries. […]
