I think Miko misses his buddy, he’s been a little mopey since with just us after a week of dog sitting his friend. I’ve been a little mopey lately too, I was in a crappy mood when I got home Sunday night from picking my mom up from the airport. It was stupid really, but […]
Simple Sriracha Dressing
As you know, Miko loves heat this time of year and would be happy to live in front of a fireplace or space heater. Warm and comforting is good, especially for the winter! So is spicy heat, I tend to prefer spicier foods with warming flare more during the winter – hot curries, hot chili, […]
Fake Grass and Fun Eats for the List
Sunday night already, boo this weekend flew by too fast! But it was also a productive weekend. We had fake grass professionally installed for half of our backyard last week, the half that is closest to the door – easy for the dogs to get to. And on the side I’ve always had problems maintaining […]
Life & Simple Meals
I am pretty happy this week is almost over and I didn’t get called in for jury duty, woohoo! I was on call having to check each night to see if needed the next day this week, so that was a relief. And it actually got chilly here again this week – lows in the […]
Sriracha Peanut Dressing
I pretty much love any sort of nut or seed butter based dressing, tahini, peanut butter, almond butter, and sunflower butter are all awesome in dressings. As long as the dressings aren’t too heavy or rich and that’s what I found looking for a good spicy peanut dressing, many dressings called for 1/2 cup or […]
Fiery Peanut Dressing
The rain is back and so are some frustrated and bored chihuahuas. We got winds so strong last night, 60 MPH gusts, that poor hubby had to prop up another section of the fence and the pups will have nothing to do with going outside in that! Miko is pouting now too. And constantly wants […]
Miko’s Vet Visit & Rice Dishes
Sunday afternoon, Miko was not a happy camper. He burrowed into his blanket and was not feeling very social. By Sunday night, he was very antsy and restless and could not sit still while we were watching TV. He kept climbing all over us, went to back and forth to the other couch and just […]
Peanut Ginger Dressing
I am ready for the weekend and I think Miko is too, he’s been pouting at me for being busy. Lots of make up cuddles and walks this weekend. We’ve only had the AeroGarden set up for seven days, but check out the kale growth already! All of the kale is sprouting like crazy and […]
Sprouts and Rain for the Weekend List
Wow, Sunday got here quick! Busy weeks fly by and nice, long runs outside help balance out the stress. We got a break in the rain last Sunday for a 7-mile run in the morning, perfect before being inside the rest of the day working on projects during the rain. I got in a little […]
Sriracha Kale Chips
I’m ashamed to say it’s been a long time since I’ve used our Excalibur Food Dehydrator, over a year maybe! I had to dig it out of the back corner of our pantry for this recipe. But I got inspired with this lovely bunch of fresh kale we got in our farm box. And after […]
