Oh, it hit the fan alright!

I apologize for being away (I missed you all, even if you didn’t notice I was gone, haha).  These past few days have been insane.  I can’t even begin to try to condense it into a blog-worthy Cliff’s notes version.  So… (a) I was working a LOT – gotta get the cash flow to pay those billz, yo! (b) A patient stroked out RIGHT before I was supposed to head out on my lunch break (the blogger meet up, no less) – ahhhhhh!  I hate to say which part of that last sentence disappointed me… Read more >

Happy Birthday Kyle!

This is gonna be snappy because I’m tired and grumpy. AM: I made some java with silk and sf vanilla syrup…which I sipped while doing some mega apartment cleaning. I had an apple for a mid-morning snack. Thrilling, I know. And then the fun began…that’s right, I’m talking March Madness!!! A few quarters under way, I got lunch ready. I spread some plain greek yogurt and red pepper hummus on a whole wheat tortilla, then added in spinach, shredded carrots, and baked tofu (more from yesterday’s batch), with lots of CURRY on top. I don’t… Read more >

Kickin’ it with the Knicks

When I woke up, it was WAY later than I expected…obviously my alarm didn’t go off. Shoot! But then I made my way out to the living room (aka the only other room in the apartment that’s not the bedroom), and our houseguests were all still sound asleep. No worries, I figured, they are probably just jet lagged…I made my coffee and headed back into the bedroom to sip and read blogs.Stevia and silk makes the world go round. This mug is CRAZY big, so this was quite the caffeine load.(Not wanting to make too… Read more >

Un-lucky Irish

Happy St. Patty’s Day! I don’t have any morning pics because my computer crashed AGAIN, so now it’s in the hands of the geek squad…more on that later though. Don’t worry, you didn’t miss much. I had the usual coffee and a piece of toast with Earth Balance (approx. a mountain of it). I felt a little guilty chugging coffee knowing I was heading to the dentist’s office in an hour, but I got over it pretty quick (once I realized exactly how scary the zombie-like alternative was). I’m proud to report my dentist’s appt… Read more >

back into the (vegan) swing of things…

I slept in like a mo-fo today.  Guess the day full of flying and the changes in time zones, etc. caught up to me, and I just needed to get in the zzzzz’s. I started the day like I always do..coffee and silk…while I opened my accumulated mail. Coupons, coupons, and and more coupons (and another wedding invitation). Then I got crackin’ on breakfast. I went old school with my oats.  Straight up.  Nothin’ fancy.  Sometimes I just crave the simple things in life. That held me over pretty well, but I may have had… Read more >
