Hope you’re having a great week. It’s been a little tricky to get back into work mode after a relaxing long weekend, but I’m getting there. I’m also getting back to healthier eating after weekend fun eating. One food you will always find in our pantry is raw shelled hemp seed. I love these! I […]
Cherry Dijon Dressing
We’re still kind of waiting for spring here with more rain and storms this week, the pups seem especially frustrated with rain interrupting evening walks. Poor Miko rushes out to the back yard excited for fresh air, comes to a halt and looks back at me and pouts about the rain. But I am not […]
Simply Powerful Garlic Dressing
Miko would like the weekend to be here, he’s ready for more couch cuddle time with hubby. Me too. I’ve been hitting my usual grind of home elliptical workouts or gym treadmill workouts after work and simple veggie stir fries. I was so excited to find zucchini and yellow squash at Costco, love those in […]
Fun Eats & New Dressing
It has been a wild few days here with heavy rain and winds. Not complaining, California always needs it! But we have two very unhappy chihuahuas who refuse to go outside. Even our covered porch is a wind tunnel that Miko refuses. Crazy winter weather calls for steaming bowls of chili and hubby is amazing […]
Better Mediterranean Dressing
Aw Wednesday, Friday would be better and sweet Miko agrees because he has been ready to play every evening. It’s been an interesting week so I really treated myself with this salad with olives, hearts of palm, chickpeas, and corn. And such a blend calls for a kicky Mediterranean dressing that isn’t loaded with oil, […]
Fun Peanut Dressing
Miko loves his Lambchop toys so much I have to buy them in 3-packs to have backups on hand when one gets destroyed or is in the wash. He has a basket full of them that he loves to dig through and pick one for our evening toy throwing session. I dug out an ingredient […]
Another Summery Dill Dressing
It’s hot this week with most days over 100 degrees and we’re feeling it. Even though we’re trying to stay in the AC during the hottest times of the day, I just feel more tired and drag more (and sweat more) at the gym. Leela has been sleeping more inside. The heat does strange things […]
Make This Dressing
Miko was not happy with me on this dressing recipe, he didn’t understand why I wouldn’t share. Don’t worry, I shared plenty of carrots and beans with him. But this recipe packs raw garlic which is not good for dogs. But powerfully good for humans compared to cooked garlic. It also has raw ginger and […]
Earth Day Fest & Parsley Dressing
Whew and it’s only Wednesday! That’s cool, hoping the weekend will get here soon because Miko is ready for more couch cuddle time. Last weekend was gorgeous, plenty of sun, blooming flowers, and warm weather. Perfect for an outdoor Earth Day festival. The ECOS Sacramento Earth Day festival is such a unique experience, a beautiful […]
Lentils and a New Dressing
It is pouring rain outside again and we’ve got frustrated, lazy pups wanting a walk. But Miko will have nothing to do with wind and rain and poor Leela gets disoriented more easily in windy weather. And she probably prefers sleeping after a busy play date with my mom’s dog. It’s been awhile, too long, […]
