This seems to be the first official weekend of fall here with temps finally in the 70s and 60s and I am celebrating with a delicious warming and creamy broth for sautéing hearty potatoes and veggies in – Pacific Foods Organic Creamy Plant-Based Zesty Ginger & Turmeric Broth. Also with the Autumn Harvest Bowl and […]
More Fun VCC Eats
Here we are at Sunday again, this week flew by with the finale being our air conditioning deciding to fail last night. Luckily it’s not too hot, but still warm enough in the afternoon to need it which is crazy in October. Not looking forward to a possibly pricey repair, oh well. We did get […]
Fall and Fun for the List
Hello October! I am ready for turning leaves, pumpkins, and cooling temps. And diving into the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge! It’s been a busy week here still settling into a new job.

Here we are at Sunday again, wow. It’s been a good and interesting week, I got a run in one evening taking in the views since it was actually cool enough after work. And Miko has been doing okay, coughing more this week. But he had a vet appointment Friday with X-rays confirming it’s not […]

Rodent Saga Continues for the List

Enjoying Fall for the List

Fall Fun Times for the List
Happy Halloween! Have any fun plans? We’re handing out candy, recipe experimenting, and drinking wine – not a bad way to spend it. Fall is in full swing here and it’s gorgeous with rain, turning leaves, and greenery returning after last weekend’s massive rain storm. A few weeks ago I snapped a pic of an […]
Fall Ready for the List
It keeps inching towards cooler weather here and we’re all for it! Especially being able to take Miko out on more adventures with safer, cooler weather for him. He has been very happy to be a sweet couch potato and embrace the cooler weather for long walks. Things are still very busy at work and […]
Visiting Stanford Inn by the Sea
Thank goodness for long holiday weekends to catch up and decompress, I have been feeling a little overwhelmed and burned out lately with so much going at work and general strange and tough times in life as many have. We got more help at work this week thankfully, so hopefully things will be getting better […]
