Whew, happy Friday eve! Popping in with a quick recipe because it’s been a busy week! We’re still going through a lot of corn here, I love that the fresh stuff is in season and cheap and I got more in the farm box. I decided to use it in a fresh, BBQ themed salad. But […]
Raw Vegan Version of a Classic
Friday is almost here, thank goodness! And Miko is thankful for zucchini scraps he gets when I break out my vegetable spiral slicer. Summer approaching means soon zucchini will be everywhere here and I’m looking forward to loading up on massively huge ones at farmer’s markets just so I can use my spiral slicer for […]
Tomato Cheddar Dressing
I’m here and it’s been a week so far! Lots going on at work with big projects and issues. I’ll spare you the details, but I was actually looking forward to a dentist appointment today because I got to leave work early, like a mini vacation to have my teeth scraped! Hopefully things will settle […]
Festive Lentils and Quinoa
It has been nice to relax and tackle a little housework so far this weekend after a busy week. Skipper agrees, he’s been covering his hammock bed with more fur and dirt for us to vacuum. Poor Miko is a little bored with us, he was ready to play and play after a quiet week. […]
Tomato Avocado Dressing
This is shaping up to be a busy week with lots going on at work, another work potluck, and two days of training in the city for me. That’s all good, except Miko would like me to make more time to play with him. And Skipper would like more walks. He does his happy downward […]
Vegan Chef Challange at Tower Bridge Bistro
Good morning, I’m up early before the sun again this morning, but thankfully got a good night’s sleep last night and feeling much better. Amazing how emotional and drained lack of sleep can make me feel, not fun! Last night hubby and I had another amazing dinner out for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge, I’m […]
Watermelon Tomato Salad
Between my Costco trip last weekend, our garden, and this huge batch of tomatoes delivered in our farm box today, we’re overflowing with tomatoes! I needed to use some up quick with dinner and was craving something cool and hydrating since today’s high was 106 degrees of dry heat. I decided to experiment with a […]
Tuscan Avocado Dressing
Friday is almost here, finally! It’s been a long week here with lots going on at work and in life in general. And I had a conflicted vegan moment today because it’s the first day of our local summer farmer’s market and I really wanted to stop by after work. But I got a farm […]
Sun Dried Tomato Pesto
Monday is almost over, whew! And happy Earth Day! Doing anything special to celebrate? Not me … besides being a vegan, driving an electric car, and composting. :-) Composting is an interesting adventure that can be messy and take up a lot of space, but LifeHacker posted a super easy method to create instant compost […]
Savory Fennel Seed Dressing
I think Miko’s day was as crazy as mine, he stayed with my mom while I was at work and her cranky chihuahua who didn’t want to share the attention. And he got chased around by my two very active nieces. He was very ready for a little relaxing in hubby’s lap at the end […]
