Ugh on the heat here this week, over triple digits for the next week and 111 degrees for Friday and Saturday! Odd and scary to be this hot this time of year. It’s been sucking my energy and makes everything feel slower and dragging. Including poor Leela, lately taking her on walks has been even […]
Heat and Fun Eats for the Weekend List
Whew, it is hot today with a high of 105 degrees! I got the dogs out for a walk early this morning before the heat kicked in, but it still wiped poor Leela out who has been crashed in the air conditioning all day. Bummer is we’re supposed to get triple digits all week with […]
More Stuff We Ate
Did you get any eclipse action? I snapped this crappy shot on my phone through eclipse glasses outside of the office while enjoying a fresh air break from work. Miko was not really impressed with it, he just wanted to cuddle after work. Sunday I stepped out for a girl’s lunch with my mom and […]
Simple and Fast for the Weekend List
Wow, another weekend flew by too fast! And Miko was hoping for more walk time this weekend, but enjoyed snooze time in the office with me and hubby and I while watching Ozark and Defenders on Netflix. I did find a new kitchen gadget to try – the Kuhn Rikon Stay Clean Scrubber as an […]
Spicy Kimchi Dressing
Fall must be near because it’s been chilly enough to need a jacket for our morning dog walks this week. Exciting! And Miko would rather hide in his pile of blankets than step outside. This dressing will warm you up with fiery and creamy flare thanks to a fun product hubby found at Costco – […]
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 […]
Anniversary Eats
We’re trying to enjoy some downtime this week and relax after crazy times at work. Things are still crazy, but not on call with hours of overtime crazy. But we are having fake grass installed in a large chunk of our backyard this week which I’m so excited about! Drought friendly and will always look […]
Decompressing for the Weekend List
After such a busy week and last weekend working, it’s been nice to decompress a bit this weekend and actually have time to play Zelda on the Nintendo Switch I got for my birthday. My schedule and shopping routine have been seriously out of whack the last few weeks and eats have been an interesting […]
Summery Avocado Dressing
Things have been a little crazy this week, I think I’m still behind from working the weekend and having a tough time with Leela not wanting to take her antibiotics. They’re larger pills that she is being so stubborn with even pill pocket treats aren’t working. However, chopping the pills up into 3 pieces and […]
Working Hard for the List
I am always looking for new ways to reduce our use of disposable plastic products, but freezer bags are the best for storing bananas and other frozen fruits and veggies for smoothies. I try to reuse those for as long as I can, but they don’t wash or wear well with frequent loading and freezing. […]
