It’s been a great and relaxing weekend here so far with an easy run in the cool air this morning, shopping, seeing Thor with hubby, playing Mario Odyssey like a kid, and great eats. And we got rain! Just enough make the air crisp and fresh and give us this beautiful sunset last night as […]
Smoky Cheddar Dressing
Whoa, November already. I’m a little sad and glad Halloween is over, part of me wishes we celebrated it more with parties and haunted houses while the other part is glad to be done with the mid-week stress of it. I am actually looking forward to the cooler, rainy weather this weekend to see movies, […]
Final Vegan Chef Challenge Weekend for the List
Jeez the weather has been strange this year, right? But this looks like it might be our last warm weekend until 2018 so I guess I’d better enjoy one last day of wearing shorts before they’re stored away for the season. The pups are already in chilly fall weather mode enjoying a lazy day of […]
Middle of the Week Eats
Whew, it’s been a tough and draggy week here. I’ve been struggling to stay positive lately with so much ugly news, being crazy busy at work, and dealing with allergies and/or possibly a bug this week. But the weekend is getting closer, so there is that! And I’ve got sweet pups and a sweet hubby […]
Great Eats and Vegan Chef Challenge for the List
It’s starting to get cold here with temps in the 40s in the morning which is blanket snuggle weather for Miko! And soon it will be fireplace time which is Miko’s only favorite thing about winter. I am loving the signs of fall here, leaves are turning, pumpkins are everywhere, and I need to start […]
Better Peanut Dressing
Sweet Leela continues to mellow with age, she enjoys long naps after walks and pretty much most of the day. She even lets Miko share her bed without protest now which would have been unacceptable not that long ago. Miko wanted to share this dressing with me, but that wasn’t happening with sriracha in it! […]
Feeling Fall for the Weekend List
It has been an interesting week, hasn’t it? It’s getting tougher and tougher to even watch the news and I’ve been feeling terrible for those dealing with all the fires while trying to figure out the best way to help. No fires near us, just a lot of smoke and icky air quality. Enough about […]
Dog Treats & Tahini Rosemary Dressing
While at Barktoberfest on Sunday, I scored freebie bags of Bixbi Sweet Potato & Apple Flavor Bark Pops and have never heard of these before. I was surprised to find this flavor is plant based with a not-so-scary ingredient list. They’re like puffy, crunchy snack puffs for dogs. And Miko is a fan, both the […]
Fun Eats and Runs for the List
Wow, Sunday night already. Weekends are flying by too fast lately! It’s been a great weekend of fun and amazing eats while we try to enjoy the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge as much as we can. And I’ve been trying to get into a healthier routine as we slide into cooler weather and wind down on […]
Eats & Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge
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 […]
