Hi and, wow, it’s Tuesday already? The last few days have been a blur, poor hubby is still sick with the flu, 4 days now with a fever – poor guy! And work has been stressful with lots going on. I’ve been racing around the house sterilizing everything, washing bed sheets daily, preparing meals for […]
Avocado Dijon Dressing
I’m feeling a little better after my venting session and my car has a new windshield with the inside smelling like fresh glue, ugh. Hopefully I can avoid getting stuck behind another dump truck! And make it through this week at work! It’s been crazy busy the last few days, I was stuck at the […]
Holiday Time
Whew, the last few days have been a blur of making a mess of my kitchen, cleaning it, running, shopping, and getting ready for the holidays and another family gathering last night. But I’ve also been sleeping in and cuddling with sweet pets in the chilly weather here, it’s been heavenly to have a few […]
Sprouts and Pizza
Today is the last day of taking antibiotics for the bladder infection and I’m thrilled! The side effects have been awful! Headaches, nausea, dizziness, cramps, etc. making for a tough and looooong short week at work! So it was great to relax at home most of the day getting in a little gym time and […]
Field Roast Stew
Sunday already? Wow! Sad to see this pleasantly quiet weekend end. The weather was windy, cold, and rainy most of the weekend which was a great excuse to stay home and enjoy the fireplace. Yes, Miko is passed out on the hearth with my sock that he somehow got out of the laundry hamper, sneaky […]
Sniffling & Surviving
First of all, cheers! Have a glass of wine with me for making it through this much of the week! After the last two days, that’s something to celebrate for me! Work is still nuts, more long days of doing way too much at once with new project after new project. I’m thankful we’re so […]
Running & Sauteed Salad
I’m so happy the weekend is finally here, but still counting down the days until things settle at work finally next weekend after a major project deadline. It’s been madness for over 6 weeks now with so much going on at work and in my personal life that I’m craving more downtime. This morning I […]
Growing & Storing Sprouts
I’m obsessed with sprouts and write about them a lot, like all the health benefits of them in this post. I try to always have fresh sprouts in the fridge, but that’s not always easy with my work schedule and sprouters requiring rinsing twice a day. Most seeds need to be soaked for 8 hours […]
Indulgent Dressing
Aw, our weather is getting back into summer today with sunshine and warmer temps. But this evening was clear and in the 70s with a slight breeze – perfect running weather! I had to take advantage of that with a quick 3.2 mile run and it was wonderful after an indoor workout last night. After […]
Roughing It
Since I’m tired of whining about work, let’s just say it was another insane day with too much going on and not enough bodies. This isn’t gonna be an easy week, things aren’t lightening up anytime soon. When I know I’m gonna be under a lot of stress, I like to eat especially well since […]
