July flew by too fast and I’m a little bummed it’s over, summer is going too quickly. But this summer themed recipe is not a bummer with a lighter, kicky peanut sauce and Explore Cuisine Organic Red Lentil Penne Pasta. With chopped broccoli, of course. I always must share when chopping broccoli, it’s Miko’s favorite. […]
Summer Eats for the List
Two days of triple digit summer heat means lazy and pouting dogs here. Leela is perfectly happy to sleep all day and take in air conditioning while Miko has been restless wanting more play and cuddle time. Last Sunday we stepped out for a blissful dinner for my birthday at Revolution Winery were they had […]
Birthday Eats for the List
Happy Birthday to me and it’s been a fun weekend of celebration! Gah, 42! It’s just a number I keep telling myself, but time can fly. It’s been a fun week with the camping trip, short work week, and a fun weekend even though I am still doing laundry and putting stuff away from the […]
Bright Parsley Dressing
Summer heat is back this week which means lazy and/or restless pups. Leela is perfectly happy to sleep all day while Miko gets antsy and frustrated when it’s too hot to go for a walk outside. I crave cool salads with this heat, lots of cool salads and smoothies. And had a ton of parsley […]
Long Weekend Fun for the List
It has been a nice 4 days off here, I am feeling okay about going back to work after lots of relaxing and getting stuff down. But the pups won’t be happy about us going back, Miko was getting used to sleeping in and long morning walks. And my sister’s cat got used to the […]
Creamy Dijon Dill Dressing
Still accepting that it’s July already, where is 2019 going? It is also my virtual Friday because I am taking actual Friday off, so woohoo for a 4-day weekend! I think I need it too because I did not want to get out of bed this morning and was envious of Miko snoring away while […]
Summer Fun for the List
Tomorrow is July, how crazy is that? It has been a busy week here with both of our jobs and Miko has not been happy with us being gone all day and has been extra clingy at home. He’s such a sweetheart and I hate leaving the pups to work all day. I’ve explained it’s […]
Fast Hummus Dressing
It’s been a draining week at work, so much going on that I’m not at all feeling creative when I get home. Luckily not a lot of creative energy is needed for a good salad and salads always feel like a win. Especially when there’s a huge tub of hummus in the fridge ready to […]
Simple and Healthy
It has been hot here with triple digit heat the last few days. So the pups have been kept inside during the worst of the heat and Miko is not pleased with that. And it’s been a busy week for me with multiple appointments today, running around in the heat has been exhausting. Sweet hubby […]
Overloaded for the List
It has been a packed week here, but in a good way having a productive week at work and getting some other projects done. And Miko has been happy to snuggle in his home office bed while we work and he’s just been so cute loving his blanket. Evening walks have been cute and a […]
