When I went vegan … wow, over 6 years ago now, I thought seafood was going to be the toughest to give up. But jeez, watch some of these disturbing seafood videos on NutritionFacts.org and it’s not so hard! Especially when vegan alternatives keep getting more amazing. Hubby was a crab cake fan before going […]
Weekend List with Simple Eats
Happy Sunday! Look at the cute little tomato plants in our AeroGarden after a week! They’re sprouting a couple of days ahead of schedule. And watermelon is showing up in grocery stores here at reasonable prices finally which makes Miko and I very happy! I took both pups for a long walk yesterday to visit […]
Golden Beet Tahini Dressing
I caved and gave Leela a blanket back for her bed and it’s not working out too well. Every time she leaves the bed, she drags her blanket away and sometimes to the other side of the house. Then pouts at me until I put it back on her bed so she can burrow into […]
Garlic Rosemary Dressing
We are so glad the weekend is almost here after a trying work week! Miko is looking forward to walk time in the perfect weekend weather. And I’m hoping things are quiet at work since I’m on call this weekend because they have not been this week. But I did get time to create a […]
Cauliflower Cheesy Sauce
First thing every morning, I send the chihuahuas to the backyard to do their business and they’re still not happy about the chilly, morning air and can’t wait to come in for breakfast. And I can’t wait for the weekend! It’s been a crazy week and salads are a comfort food for me when things […]
Colorful Weekend List
This weekend has been so great that I’m not ready to go back to work tomorrow. It’s been relaxing and productive. After a week of solid rain, the weed and grass growth in the yard has been insane. Literally one day, nothing, next day 3-foot-tall spiky weed is there! It was nice getting the front […]
Creamy Spirulina Dressing
I think I’m still adjusting to the time change and losing an hour on a race day last weekend because getting out of bed for work has been tough this week. But Smokey is enjoying the additional sunshine in the evenings. And, oh yeah, it’s St. Patrick’s Day and I have a green recipe for […]
Creamy Parsley Dressing
It’s been raining pretty consistently for the last few days here which is great for California! Except not for the pups who are bored of being inside, but hate going outside. Poor Miko has been a little frustrated being stuck inside. Smokey is perfectly happy to bury herself in her favorite couch blanket in this […]
Avocado Fennel Seed Dressing
Poor Leela has been a little rattled lately because of our refrigerator. I noticed a few weeks ago the compressor has been kicking on and off in an odd pattern even though it’s been maintaining the temperatures fine. And sometimes it makes a faint high pitched beep when it does which is bothering her. Hubby […]
Avocado Cumin Dressing
Poor Miko cuddled with hubby last night while he pouted at me for putting his favorite toy in the wash. But I had no choice, he managed to pee on it when he took it outside to do his business. Silly guy! Smokey was not impressed with the drama and preferred sunbathing. I was craving a […]
