Wow, this long weekend is buzzing by, very thankful to have today off work too! So far it’s been a pretty quiet weekend at home catching up on house projects, lots of laundry, grocery shopping, and other unexciting, pedestrian chores. Great to get those caught up on for sure, but I’m hoping to get out […]
Cinnamon Hemp Sauce
Another weekend flew by too fast and today seemed to drag at work even though it was busy. Or maybe I just had a case of the Mondays after such a nice-weathered weekend. Meanwhile the dogs are having a totally relaxing Monday. Rough life. Last week I got a cute little butternut squash in our […]
Christmas Day
I’m a little sad that Christmas is over already and this year was especially tough since I had to be back at work bright and early this morning, no relaxing day at home enjoying gifts this year. Yesterday was an amazing day that started with hubby and I sipping coffee and tearing into our gifts. […]
Vegan Breakfast Quinoa
I’m actually happy that December is here already, bring on the holiday cheer! November ended roughly for me with two crazy days at work and crazy stormy weather the last 4 days now, so I’m hoping things slow down a bit for the holidays. Hubby and I started the weekend with a relaxing dinner out […]
Survived it!
After a lot of debating yesterday, hubby and I decided to run the Urban Cow Half Marathon today we signed up for back in July even though we weren’t ready, him with a sore ankle and me with sinus issues, and the other two family members we were gonna run it with weren’t able to […]
Fast Sweet & Spicy Sauce
I can’t get enough of fast, veggie-based blender sauces with plenty of kick lately, they’re perfect for a fast meal after a busy workday. Our poor Vitamix is being worked into the ground, if that’s possible. It gets used at least three times a day lately for smoothies, sauces, etc. The container is starting to […]
Ginger Tahini Dressing
It’s been mostly pleasant here lately with temps in the 80s and plenty of sunshine, I’ll take it over triple digit heat! And the dogs have been enjoying playing in the backyard. Miko loves his Santa toy lately and I need to sneak it into the laundry soon because it’s getting crusty again! Last […]
Quinoa and Kamut Berries
What a week so far! There’s still so much going on at work and getting a jury duty summons for next month and dealing with a very pricy brake repair on my car is just icing on the cake. Though jury duty might be a less stressful alternative to work, hmmm… I think being slightly […]
Goats and Curry Stew
Blah, another weekend flew by too fast. But the weather was decent enough to do my long run outdoors which was wonderful even though parts of the trail were a little flooded from all the rain. It’s so much nicer to get outside to see nature and wildlife for long runs than being stuck on […]
Long and Wacky Week
It has been a long and strange week with lots of stress. Work is still nuts – the company is growing lots and that’s great. Except for the IT department who’s been dealing with lots of last minute upgrades, new equipment deploys, and unhappy users because we’re having problems keeping up with all the work. […]
