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 […]
Balsamic Sweet Potato Wedges
I think Leela is preparing for winter because she has had quite the appetite lately begging as much as Miko and even running over to Miko’s dinner bowl to eat the rest of his V-Dog when he steps away. So innocent. She is the master of weight control, she’s always the exact same weight for her annual checkups […]
Simple Hemp Herb Dressing
Popping in with a quick recipe post here, it’s been a crazy week at work and I’m preparing for an upcoming training trip. Sometimes balancing blogging and everything else during a work week is challenging and I had a great talk about that with a blog reader at our Halloween party last weekend about trying […]
Super Cheesy Hemp Sauce
Happy Tuesday, hope your week is going good! I’m feeling energized after a good workout at the gym and recovering from Sunday’s 9-mile run. I’d like to be one of those runners who can just run lots of miles all the time, multiple marathons a year and tons of energy. I’m starting small tackling longer runs on […]
Salads Can Be Gooey and Cheesy
Miko is a little bored with me this week. I’m still feeling washed out with this cold, but it’s almost gone! Thank goodness, I’m ready after 5 days of it! Colds can cause some interesting food cravings for me, anything salty, fatty, and/or sweet which are bad options for energy crashes and feeling even more […]
Butternut Rosemary Dressing
We’re having a lazy Sunday here, Miko burrowed himself and his toy under blankets in his office bed since it’s been an oddly foggy and chilly weekend. The sun did come out yesterday afternoon, so I took the chihuahuas for a long walk. Really long walk since they like to stop and smell everything! It […]
Creamy Avocado Rosemary Salad
Friday is almost here. Today was another crazy day, but I’m doing much better after a great workout at the gym and a glass of wine. Still thinking about taking a few days off from work after working through the holidays. I’m craving a little down time to tackle a few projects at home and […]
Mushroom Gravy Dressing
I’ve been putting it off for as long as possible, but yesterday I finally had three old fillings redone at the dentist. Glad it’s over and I’ll hopefully never have to worry about them again, but it sucked. And so did the bill. My entire mouth had to be numbed, so I had a smoothie […]
Creamy Herb Dressing
When I was at Whole Foods last weekend, I impulsed purchased these Tru Roots Organic Sprouted Green Lentils because they were on sale. Truthfully the concept freaked me out a little cooking what was once live sprouted lentils, but I decided to give this a try. They cook in about half the time of non-sprouted […]
Cheesy Avocado Salad
It’s been raining all weekend here, nonstop! And it’s great because this area needed rain so bad, I don’t even mind having to go to the gym to get my long training run in this morning. Heavy wind has also been part of the storms and Miko is very unhappy about that, we have to […]
