Yesterday we dog-sitted my mom’s active 1-year-old chihuahua mix, Dasher, for the first time and he wasn’t sure about us for the first hour. He sat by the front door whimpering for mommy. After a couple of handfuls of V-dog, he decided we were okay and helped himself to Miko’s toy box which Miko wasn’t […]
Curry Ginger Banana Soup
Leela is not a happy camper after her vet appointment yesterday. Her sniffling cold has been hanging around for the last week, so to the vet she went to find out why. Turns out she has a sinus infection, got a shot, and has to take 4 pills a day for awhile now. Poor girl! […]
Creamy Hemp Sriracha Dressing
Ah Tuesday, at least you’re not Monday. Smokey is happy any day of the week and has been especially clingy and lovey lately following us around the house and carefully watching what’s going on. I worry that she may be a little lonely, but pretty sure she wouldn’t appreciate not being queen of the house […]
Tangy Sunchoke Quinoa
We’ve been getting a lot of rain this weekend and that’s good and so are the cool looking clouds. Miko does not agree, he and Leela are getting a little frustrated and bored. I’ve been catching up on a lot of cleaning and a little experimenting in the kitchen. Last week I scored a huge […]
Mushroom Avocado Dressing
Thank goodness Friday is almost here, I am ready for this week to end. So is Miko, he’s been pouting for more play time and not happy at us for coming home tired and cranky. I can’t blame him! Smokey is still ready for more attention and to steal Miko’s camera time. I’m ready to […]
Balsamic Hummus Dressing
That rear end sticking out from under the blanket is Leela. She’s been in a cranky mood the last couple of days with a sniffly cold and having to compete with Miko and my mom’s dog for attention. And I’m in a cranky mood with work being busy, so busy that even I’m almost too […]
Weekend & Avocado Miso Dressing
Hi and happy Superbowl Sunday! We’re having a casual family gathering where I’ll be enjoying the company and commercials more than the game. And trying not to eat too many chips and guacamole! Friday hubby and I headed to Tower Bridge Bistro again for this weekend’s vegan menu and sampled everything between us. The charred […]
Balsamic Beet Dressing
Thank goodness Friday is almost here, it’s been a week at work! Always nice to come home to a sweet hubby and Miko ready for couch cuddling. Also nice to keep dinners simple, nutrient dense, and delicious. And this balsamic beet dressing recipe fits the bill being avocado and beet based and packing a tangy […]
Cocoa Mint Hemp Milk
I did something I usually don’t do for dinner last night – grabbed fast food. Chipotle actually because I wanted to support the Sofritas tofu promotion where you get to come back for a free menu item over the next month if you order a menu item with Sofritas. I ordered mine over the mobile […]
Butternut Rosemary Dressing
We’re having a lazy Sunday here, Miko burrowed himself and his toy under blankets in his office bed since it’s been an oddly foggy and chilly weekend. The sun did come out yesterday afternoon, so I took the chihuahuas for a long walk. Really long walk since they like to stop and smell everything! It […]
