Happy Valentine’s Day! Any plans? We’re stepping out for dinner, but nothing too fancy. It was difficult to make V-Day dinner reservations this year, a lot of local restaurants seemed to be doing pricey prix fixe style Valentine menus with little to no vegan options. I guess that makes sense business wise, less stress on […]
Lemony Fresh Dill Dressing
Happy Tuesday! Yeah, Friday would be better. I am feeling much better after Sunday’s 10k and had decent run at the gym today. I also got to chat with the young co-worker who smoked my time to congratulate her. Sadly she didn’t seem too impressed with her pace and was upset at the amount of […]
Super Lemony Tahini Dressing
The rain is back and we’re trying to be thankful for it here, but poor Leela has the blues about being stuck inside. Miko keeps his toy close so he’s always ready for an indoor play session. And it is tough to wear him out! Making this simple lemon tahini dressing will not wear you […]
Creamy Garlic Dressing
It has been raining non-stop for the last few days and is down-pouring outside now. I know this is a good thing, California always needs the rain. But I feel for those affected by flooding and getting a little tired of dogs refusing to outside in this weather. The winds are so strong, Miko still […]
Creamy Cilantro Dressing & Hazelnut Treat
Like me, the pups are tired of politics and have been acting a little rattled all evening. I think even Smokey is a little clingy following hubby and I around. I’m choosing to focus on vibrant salads instead because gorgeous, fresh veggies always makes things better. Especially when coated with a kicky and creamy tahini […]
Hemp Ranch Dressing
I’m feeling better after a bumpy week. Thanks for the sweet well wishes on my dad, he is doing better and we’ll be making a trip to visit him later this week. So I may not get an opportunity to post again until the weekend. Smokey is not interested in drama, she is more interested […]
Lime Avocado Dressing with Flare
We have a house guest for the next few days, we’re dog sitting my mom’s, uh, hefty dog. And he’s camera shy hiding behind the couch when he sees it in my hand. So this is the best shot I could get just before he hid. What breed would you say he is? The shelter […]
Tahini Miso Dressing
I am so happy Friday is almost here, it’s still too busy at work. But I had a great hill/tempo run at the gym after to blow off some steam. And Miko is doing much better thankfully! I’ve been adding cooked brown rice to their dinners this week and he’s been enjoying making a mess […]
Getting Ready for Fall Salad
It’s still hot, a couple of days of triple digit heat here this week. But hints of fall are starting to show up, leaves are starting to turn in our front yard and the sign is up for the Spirit Halloween store already. I’m ready, bring on the pumpkin spice everything. I might even experiment […]
Spicy Tahini Dressing
Hello August, that means cooling fall temps and turning leaves are getting closer! And fireplace cuddly time which Miko is all about. But since temps are still hot, I’m still celebrating summer with vibrant salads and fun blender salad dressings. Trust me, you’ll want to make this one. It’s tangy, creamy, slightly sweet, and has […]
