Fall is here, it was 42 degrees for our morning dog walk yesterday – 42! I’m not complaining and ready for October and all the amazing vegan eats to be had especially in the Sacramento area with the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge lasting the entire month! This list of restaurants this year is impressive with […]
Fall Ready for the Weekend List
Another weekend flew by too fast, ugh. Not for Leela, she’s been happy to enjoy our cooler fall weather snuggled in blankets. Rough life. I’ve been enjoying more turmeric smoothies this week with Garden Of Life’s Vanilla Raw Protein and Greens, frozen banana, fresh ginger, carrots, kale and broccoli. And I had an interesting comfort […]
Great Race for the List
Whoa, where did the weekend go already? It’s been a good weekend, productive and I had a great 10-mile race yesterday and great run at the gym today. Friday night I made a simple pre-race dinner of curried lentils and quinoa with veggies, quinoa or any simple grain dish seems to be a great pre-race […]
Getting Back To Normal
I am still trying to get back to some sort of schedule for recipe creation, but it’s been tough the last few weeks with a lot of chaos. Oh well, soon. After insane triple digit heat and smoke over last weekend, it was in the 80s with a breeze today! We might actually get fall! […]
Lazy for the Long Weekend List
I have just been lazy and running late the last week with posts, I blame the heat and just feeling overall drained after dealing with triple-digit temps for over a week now. I am really enjoying our long weekend, we took Friday off too and I’m not sure I’m ready to go back to work […]
Heat and Fun Eats for the Weekend List
Whew, it is hot today with a high of 105 degrees! I got the dogs out for a walk early this morning before the heat kicked in, but it still wiped poor Leela out who has been crashed in the air conditioning all day. Bummer is we’re supposed to get triple digits all week with […]
More Stuff We Ate
Did you get any eclipse action? I snapped this crappy shot on my phone through eclipse glasses outside of the office while enjoying a fresh air break from work. Miko was not really impressed with it, he just wanted to cuddle after work. Sunday I stepped out for a girl’s lunch with my mom and […]
Simple and Fast for the Weekend List
Wow, another weekend flew by too fast! And Miko was hoping for more walk time this weekend, but enjoyed snooze time in the office with me and hubby and I while watching Ozark and Defenders on Netflix. I did find a new kitchen gadget to try – the Kuhn Rikon Stay Clean Scrubber as an […]
Anniversary Eats
We’re trying to enjoy some downtime this week and relax after crazy times at work. Things are still crazy, but not on call with hours of overtime crazy. But we are having fake grass installed in a large chunk of our backyard this week which I’m so excited about! Drought friendly and will always look […]
Working Hard for the List
I am always looking for new ways to reduce our use of disposable plastic products, but freezer bags are the best for storing bananas and other frozen fruits and veggies for smoothies. I try to reuse those for as long as I can, but they don’t wash or wear well with frequent loading and freezing. […]
