It’s hard not to feel a bit of the Sunday blues looking at a full work week ahead after 4 days off and lots of family fun, but getting a Christmas tree today and decorating helped while watching Prancer. I got some new products from V-Dog this week – Mini Bites Kibble for smaller dogs […]
Wine Party & Tapering for the List
Just wow on Thanksgiving almost being here! I’ve been invited to a couple of vegan Thanksgiving dinners through local vegan Meetup groups which is awesome, it’s so great knowing there’s a large group of vegans in the area that want to celebrate together. This year we’ll be spending it locally with family, but it will […]
Easy One Pot Meals and Leftovers
Leela is getting pickier about her food as she ages, maybe sensitive teeth. Lately she’s been lightly snacking on her dinner bowl throughout the night in stages. I need to get her the smaller V-Dog kibble soon, so glad that’s an option for small dogs now! Smaller kibble should absorb water and veggie broth quicker for […]
Final Training Run for the List
I survived my final 20-mile training run today and actually have enough energy left to take the dogs for a walk. The poor pups have been a little spooked this week, maybe all the political drama has gotten to them too. I caught up on podcasts during the run which all seemed to be political, […]
Tough Miles for the Weekend List
Whoa, another weekend is flying by too fast. It’s been a productive and fun weekend so far that included more steamed spaghetti squash with hummus dressing and kale edamame salad. Spicy Thai cashew tofu stir fry. A deal shopping trip to Grocery Outlet. Miko enjoying a warm bed and blanket fresh out of the dryer. And […]
Vegan Chef Challenge Eats & the Dreadmill
Wow, another weekend flew by too fast. This was a very challenging week at work, we’ve had a lot of projects, re-organizations, and shakeups lately and training three new hires in our team while it was my boss’s last week and trying to make sure everything is covered before he moves out of state. One […]
More Chef Challenge for the List
It’s been a great weekend, I would just like more of it! Friday night we had another fun dinner for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge at the Tower Bridge Bistro. Between hubby and I, we shared tomato and artichoke heart Bruschetta, roasted rainbow carrot salad with quinoa, miso and agave marinated tofu with chickpeas, lentils, and […]
Loading Up for the Weekend List
We’re having a relaxing Sunday here, but I think Leela and Miko are missing our house guest last week. And are a little pouty at me for not having a long walk yet today since it’s been raining all day. I’m not complaining, I love the rain and we need more of it! Miko likes […]
Going the Distance for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday! It is nice to relax a bit, I’m feeling more caught up and chilled after a busy couple of weeks. Friday night hubby and I stepped out for spicy Thai vegan comfort food – I just adore this simple cashew tofu stir fry. I’m getting more into the fall spirit and have been […]
Road Trip Disconnect
I am back home and still trying to get caught up and back into a routine after a whirlwind of a road trip with my sister to visit my dad after a health scare in southern California. We left early-ish Thursday to make the 7-hour drive and I did all the driving. We were making pretty […]
