A little lazy

I have had a doozy of a week.  Parenting is hard, yo. I feel like I’ve been cutting a few corners in the kitchen as a result.  It’s sink or swim and in order to stay afloat I’m enlisting the help of the middle aisles in the grocery stores.  And home delivery meal kit services. Ok, first off, I got this coconut yogurt at WF last weekend. It’s plain, but still tastes sweet enough.  You can’t find bulk non-dairy yogurt here in Davis anymore, so I have lists of WF things for my weekly Fremont… Read more >

OIT update

I just figured I should pop in and give an update.  OIT is going well…slow and steady… The Thursday evening driving is not my favorite, but on the days he doesn’t have t-ball we can leave at a decent hour and so I don’t arrive at my parents’ house feeling like a scrambled egg. I’ve given up on naps, but he still so clearly needs some mid day sleep since he passes out in the car anytime we drive somewhere after 3 pm. On this particular day he fell asleep before we even left the garage…. Read more >

Gobble meal kits

I realize there are a million home delivery cooking businesses right now, but one of my friends told me about this one and I figured I could give it a shot. It’s different than some others I’ve heard of because it boasts only 10 minutes of prep (which is the reason I was interested in trying it). For the record, this post isn’t sponsored by gobble.  They don’t even know I exist. I ordered while we were in LA for delivery that week we got home. I chose the three meals that I thought looked… Read more >

The weekly menu

After getting home from LA it took a bit of time to get organized.  A week to be exact.  I’ve been feeling like I’m playing catch up without ever making any progress every day…the problem with these weekly Fremont trips is that I feel discombobulated after every weekend rather than restored.  Also, Kyle’s gone for the weekend so I’m definitely doing the one woman hustle.  But anyway!  Food! We were desperate for less meat this week and lots more plants.  I was contemplating doing 7 days of no chocolate but nixed it.  I’m not saying it… Read more >

LA LA land, day 8

Last day of fun in the LA sun…started with a run on the beach. Followed by a cold shower (again!! gah!!) and a trip to Gjusta. The hype is for a reason.  The place is drool inducing and the people are all super friendly and nice and even though you feel pretentious for being there, there’s somehow the most laid back feel at the same time.  Everyone seemed to know everyone’s names and regulars were talking to the baristas, and they were super helpful EVEN THOUGH THEY DON’T SERVE DECAF. They also had an oven that… Read more >
