Things have been a little crazy this week, I think I’m still behind from working the weekend and having a tough time with Leela not wanting to take her antibiotics. They’re larger pills that she is being so stubborn with even pill pocket treats aren’t working. However, chopping the pills up into 3 pieces and […]
Smokey Hemp Ranch Dressing
Sweet Leela has been very clingy lately following me around the house more and restlessly wondering. Maybe she’s bored, maybe the heat is getting to her, or maybe she just wants more attention. Or more broccoli and carrots because suddenly she’s a huge fan of them too now. You’ll want more of this comforting and […]
Tahini Thai Basil Pesto
I am screwed up this week between taking a few days off for camping last week, working Monday, then having yesterday off – what day is it? I’ll get back on schedule eventually here and caught up on sleep, having the 4th of July on a week night is kind of annoying when firework shows […]
Summery Lemon Dressing
June is here and wow, still processing that. Leela is not sure she’s ready for walks in triple digit heat. Summer also means loads of watermelon, fresh salads, and cooling smoothies. This summery dressing is bright and cooling with a poppy and tangy lemon flavor. Many lemon dressing recipes use sugar, salt, and oil for […]
Garlic Avocado Sauce or Dressing
I am curious and hopeful about the benefits of garlic, specifically raw garlic. The platelet and cardiac benefits outlined by Dr. Greger here are very attractive for long term health. Not only is it great for the heart and blood flow, it also fights cancer. But raw garlic is strong, very strong. This simple avocado […]
Hemp Heart Alfredo Dressing
We have been getting lots of rain and wild storms the last few days, the beautiful views of the clouds from our backyard have been breath taking. Rainbows and sunshine rain at the same time – such a gorgeous show from nature. And I am feeling better, working on more deep breathing, meditating, and listening […]
Smokey and Light Cheezy Sauce
Leela and I seem to be on the same page this week – we’d prefer hiding in soft, warm blankets all day. Only she actually gets to do it. Rough life. That’s okay, I get to enjoy this creamy, savory, and smokey cheezy sauce. There are tons of vegan cheese sauce recipes out there, so […]
Avocado Parsley Dressing
The rain is back this week which is a good thing, except when unhappy chihuahuas refuse to go outside. Oh the angry stares I got this morning through the patio screen. I get it, the weather was crazy today – heavy rain, strong winds, and even thunder and lightening which catches us by surprise here […]
Avocado Miso Dressing
Thank you for the kind words on the Shamrock’n half marathon, it’s been a tough training season which makes me look forward to better running weather ahead with a more aggressive training schedule. It’s been spotty this week while still recovering and keeping busy with work. But nice to rest a little. Sweet Miko continues […]
Avocado House Dressing
It looks like it will be perfect weather for the Shamrock’n half marathon this weekend, can’t complain about highs in the 70s and slightly overcast. Let’s just hope my performance can hang in there too because my legs are feeling tired after my final speed training session at the gym. The pups will be ready for […]
