I’m still getting the stink eye from the chihuahuas for taking them to the vet Monday for shots and going to work today and not playing with them enough. And I feel guilty, they just don’t understand that I have to work to feed them! I fed myself a beautiful kale salad with a creamy […]
Split Pea Quinoa with Lentils
Leela and Miko are still recovering and maybe not talking to me slightly after yesterday. We took them both to the vet for annual shots and nail clippings which I hate putting them through. Leela is a little better about car rides and going to the vet after multiple teeth cleanings, but poor Miko pouted […]
Cheesy Broccoli Dressing
TGIF! Especially for me since I’m taking today off for a 4 day weekend and having a relaxing morning at home drinking coffee and enjoying the foggy, drizzly weather. I actually like this weather, it’s peaceful, pretty, and a great excuse to park it in front of the fireplace like Miko. Or in front of […]
Creamy Avocado Rosemary Salad
Friday is almost here. Today was another crazy day, but I’m doing much better after a great workout at the gym and a glass of wine. Still thinking about taking a few days off from work after working through the holidays. I’m craving a little down time to tackle a few projects at home and […]
Warming Balsamic Dressing
Tuesday … well at least it’s no longer Monday. Everyone is back from vacation at work this week, but things are not slowing down and I’m thinking I need to take a few days off! Maybe hang around the house and look pretty like Smokey. Or take the pups for long walks, Leela is always […]
Potluck Vanilla Chai Chia Seed Pudding
It’s still raining here and that’s okay, we still need it and have plenty of holiday cheer inside. But Miko is still not happy about the rain, he’d like more active walks and is ready to party in the evenings! I went to a work party/brunch potluck today. I know, brunch. Why brunch? An awkward […]
Butternut Sage Soup
Ready for Thanksgiving yet? I’m not and really do not have a menu yet since we’ll be at a family members house. It will probably be a Trader Joe’s or Tofurky vegan roast with a couple of vegan sides, we’ll see! But it’s kind of nice to not stress about it this year, no crazy […]
Citrus Tahini Dressing
It has been chilly, overcast, and rainy this weekend. So the dogs have either been in my lap or in front of the fireplace. Rough life, huh? One great thing about winter here is our little tangerine tree explodes with tangerines. And they’re all starting to get ripe, woohoo! I used one in this simple […]
