soy bacon

peanut buttah jelly time

Hooray!  The internet people fixed our connection thingy for real now.  Can you tell how tech savvy I am with that intelligent computer language…Anyways, fingers crossed, we won’t have any more days without access to the outside world.  Phew!  (Since it is snowing and I’m cooped up in the apartment, I associate the internet with the “outside”) I started the day off with a mug of frothy vanilla coffee and big bowl of oats. Gotta love me some Bob’s Red Mill organic whole grain oats 🙂 I had about 1 1/2 cups and added in… Read more >

A tofu kind of day

Okay, what I really should have called this post was a Gliding Calm kind of day…you’ll see why soon enough!  Hint: squash fries, tofu And now for some complaining… Yesterday evening the flurries started, but the temperature didn’t stay below freezing, so overnight it turned into rain.  Lemme tell ya, today was gross!  All day long it was POURING outside.  I can’t WAIT to get away from this snow/rain slush and laze about in the sunshine.  I can’t stand this nasty sleet for much longer.  Thank goodness it’s only 3 days until Cabo!!!!  Okay, whining… Read more >

football fun cont.

Hooray, my K-love is back home. This morning was just as lazy as yesterday, but Kyle joined me…we spent the morning eager for football to start. I love play-offs. I got new slippers for x-mas, so now we are twins (hehe). I had a coffee after I woke up a bit. Lactaid-y. Mmmm… Since yesterday was pretty fruit and veggie loaded, I decided to pump up my protein intake today. Some soy bacon to start. Salty and delish. Followed by more “bacon” and egg beaters with vegan parmesan “cheese” on top. It was well past… Read more >

candle day #1

AKA the 1st day of Hanukkah. Why are there 4 different ways to spell that? Well, since I work at a (technically) Jewish hospital, I know more than I ever thought I would about the kosher ways of the world. So, my blog title is in celebration of the festival of lights! Good thing my lunch didn’t have meat and dairy on the same plate…oh wait, I don’t eat meat OR dairy, so looks like I’m perma-kosher by default. I had to DRAG myself out of bed this morning. My alarm went off at 5… Read more >

skinny bitch in the kitch

Even after working 3 days in a row, I still couldn’t even sleep in! I woke up at 8 (but really just rolled over and turned the tv on). I actually got up an hour or so later, and got my coffee on.SO frothy 🙂 A little later I decided to finish my dessert from last night. Yeah, vegan chocolate mousse is not exactly a typical breakfast food, but who’s to say I’m typical. Me? Normal? Not so much.More AM snacking continues…vanilla soy yogurt (these babies are HARD to find in the store lately, so… Read more >
