Poor Miko cuddled with hubby last night while he pouted at me for putting his favorite toy in the wash. But I had no choice, he managed to pee on it when he took it outside to do his business. Silly guy! Smokey was not impressed with the drama and preferred sunbathing. I was craving a […]
Simple Sweet Apple Dressing
We’ve been getting some more rain here the last few days and some frustrated and bored chihuahuas who want more walks. Leela has even been stalking me around the house for any hint of leash time. Rain outside is no problem with kale growing away in the AeroGarden inside, here’s what the kale looks like […]
Avocado Blue Cheese Dressing
It must be getting closer to Friday because Miko is pouting at me again for being busy all week. I feel like pouting too after this work week, but there is a long and awesome weekend to look forward to! And check out the kale in the AeroGarden after only 14 days! It really is growing about […]
Ginger Herb Dressing
Leela was having a case of the Mondays yesterday and perfectly happy to hide in her bed. Can’t blame her, it was tempting when my alarm went off. Smokey stayed parked on her favorite couch blanket all day. Not a bad way to spend Monday for sure! I spent some of it getting creative with […]
Spicy Oil Free Peanut Stir Fry
Hubby surprised me with an early Valentine’s Day gift – an AeroGarden! We had fun setting it up yesterday and starting kale and herb planter pods in it, so I will be reporting a lot more on it when we start seriously growing stuff. First impressions: Wow, it’s high tech with a touch screen display, […]
Zingy Avocado Dressing
The chihuahuas have a serious case of the lazies this week and are sticking to their cozy fireplace beds. At most they shift to a different blanket or bed. And occasionally fight over who gets to claim the fuzzy red blanket. Rough life and I’m actually very jealous with such a busy week at work. […]
Fiery Peppercorn Dressing
Poor Leela has been a little lonely and clingy this week. She’s on antibiotics before a teeth cleaning appointment and not liking the side effects. I’m not liking having to sneak shove a dropper full of medicine into her mouth twice a day! Miko is not liking feeling left out of the medicine party even after […]
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 […]
Ginger Miso Stir Fry Sauce
The long weekend is almost here, woohoo! I don’t even mind that it’s supposed to rain all weekend. Neither does Smokey as long as she has her favorite couch blanket. Leela is funny about eating V-Dog kibble, she likes to leave little bits outside the bowl and comes back for them later. For me, when […]
Creamy Asian Dressing
We’re supposed to be getting many days of chilly rain this week and that’s a good thing, we need it. Except sharing the warm fireplace isn’t always easy, Smokey gets a little cranky when Miko gets in the way of her favorite show. And Miko likes to lay his toys out at the fireplace to warm them […]
