I actually didn’t take too many pictures at the tasting pavilion because I was busy, well, tasting! Here are the ones I do have, supplemented with ones borrowed from my roommates Danica, Holly, Susan, and Janetha. Before heading into the tasting, Kyle and my sister joined up with me (I’m not the only foodie in my family). :) So stripe-y. We took some photos in the sunshine…and then the clock struck one and it was time to go. Waiting for the event to start reminded me of being in a corral before a running race. … Read more >

Saturday started with the ordinary: coffee, blog, tv, yadda yadda. Eventually I made a brunch platter (of the not so ordinary nature). Maybe carrots and apples seem weird for breakfast the first meal of the day, but it’s what I was craving. And if you think I had these without hummus, then you clearly don’t know me at all. I finished off the rest of the (just opened) tub with a 7 grain roll, followed by grapes. Nothing like 8 servings of chickpea heaven to get the day started right. After a hearty mug of… Read more >

This weekend I relaxed more than I have in a loooooong time. I didn’t exercise. I hardly cooked. To be honest, I pretty much spent the weekend watching the Australian Open, football, and hanging out with Kyle (I did a fair amount of eating as well). If that’s not the picturesque weekend, well, shoot me. I have a TON of photos, but they aren’t very glamorous and don’t require much in the way of explanations…so…without further ado… JAVA the hut Bluffin’ with my muffin How to make quinoa ghetto Afternoon delight(s) YouShake customized “Blended… Read more >

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 >

…party ‘til the sun is rising, high rise, overtime, working ‘til the morning shine. I feel on TOP OF THE WORLD! Top of the world! 🙂 In addition to making me feel like a true New Yorker, that song pumps me up (as most PCD song do)! Guilty pleasure, fasho. AM coffee. BTW, before I forget, thank SO MUCH for all the feedback on my last post. You guys are the sweetest and the most thoughtful and it really makes my day when I get flooded with comments of support. It’s so nice to know… Read more >
