Are you ready for Thanksgiving? We’re getting there and learned recently that my dad will be staying with us for a few days, so we’ve been busily turning the gym room into a makeshift guest room with an Aerobed and cleaning. Smokey didn’t want to give up her favorite blue comforter for our guest. Leela would […]
Kicky Cheesy Avocado Sauce
A tricky thing about winter is driving to work in the dark and leaving work in the dark and it’s getting closer to those days. Miko and I try to enjoy the last bit of daylight playing in the backyard when I get home while we can. As long as it’s not too cold, he […]
Cheesy Butternut Curry Sauce
With temps dropping to the 30s, hubby sweetly turned on the fireplace so winter has officially begun here! And Miko is thrilled! You can find him toasting his belly when it’s on and pouting in front of it when it’s off. And me creating recipes with winter squash. This Vegan Curried Pumpkin Cheese Sauce inspired […]
Simple Hemp Herb Dressing
Popping in with a quick recipe post here, it’s been a crazy week at work and I’m preparing for an upcoming training trip. Sometimes balancing blogging and everything else during a work week is challenging and I had a great talk about that with a blog reader at our Halloween party last weekend about trying […]
Creamy Parsley Spaghetti Squash
Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday before a weekend filled with Halloween fun. It’s been a busy week, but Miko would like it to be busier with more play time. After our backyard toy throwing session, he parked himself in the kitchen to remind me it’s dinner time and I could share more spaghetti squash. I realize […]
Creamy Fennel Dressing
We might actually get rain tomorrow … in California. Can you believe it? I am loving the cooling temps for a change, but Miko is not so sure. He’s in a hurry to get through our morning walks before work because it’s chilly now. I’ve been trying to compensate with more playtime inside having 15 minute […]
Weekend List
It’s a little strange walking the dogs and driving to work in the dark mornings now, winter is coming. That’s not a bad thing, I’m ready for cooler weather and really hope we get needed rain here after years of drought! For now weather is perfect for Sunday morning runs, a little cool and overcast. […]
Creamy Spinach Hemp Sauce
Miko is already getting into the holiday spirit, he picked his snowman toy for our play session last night. And he was ready for me to launch it to the other end of the house for hours, I got tired of throwing before he did. Leela wasn’t so much into the fetch time, it was […]
Coconut Curry Dressing
I am loving the fall feeling here, temps in the 70s this week with a cool breeze and leaves are turning. Finally after an insanely hot and dry summer. And Halloween is almost here! I have never been a costume person, I wasn’t even good at dressing up as a kid possibly because most of […]
Peppermint Chocolate Super Soft Serve
We are ready for Friday here, poor Miko has been following me around the house for more play time. And Smokey would like to remind me that it’s cat box sterilization time again this weekend. One more thing for my chore list. After a busy day, I treated myself to a hearty dessert this week […]
