if i had a million dollars…

I would devote a whole wing of my mansion to be a starbucks…OR I would hire a starbucks barista to follow me around with a fully stocked coffee cart…I’m not sure why, but their coffee just tastes better in the store. I can’t make anything that’s even close in comparison! So it goes without saying that my morning started off with a fatty venti soy latte. I worked with my fav girlies today, so work was awesome. The unit was FULL so since there were 3 of us, we each had 3 patients. It was… Read more >

AM in the PM (and AM too)

What could be better than a day full of ALL breakfast food! I heart breakfast food the most…I had a yummy cup of joe with a vanilla organic probiotic soy yogurt. This brand was so/so. I bought a few different brands of soy yogurt the other day to try them out, but I don’t know if I am going to like them…so far I have liked 1 of the 3 (not the best average). Here’s a recap of the soy yogurt trial up to now: O’Soy = good Wildwood = so-so Silk = yuck Lunch… Read more >

soynut butter goes with everything

Weekend, finally. I bought a jar of soynut butter yesterday evening (after work grocery shopping is dangerous). I finished the jar today. That’s unacceptable! I started the morning (ok, afternoon) with coffee (ff vanilla creamer, skim plus, and stevia). Then I dug right into the soynut butter…I put it on EVERYthing I could get my hands on (including spoons by themselves). I finished off the Ezekiel bread with it (hmmm…approx 7 slices?) which was GREAT with a nice glass of silk soy milk and left me waaaaay full. Then I decided I should probably get… Read more >

i need green

Sooo, I had to work this Saturday. Working weekends is usually kinda a bummer…but today was slow, so I didn’t really mind. I guess the crashing economy affects heart surgery too? I made my lunch the night before, and I tried something new. We were out of lettuce, and since I hate sandwiches that don’t have greens, I had to make do with what we did have. I used the remaining green peppers left over from the quiche and broccoli. Then I put the smart deli turkey on top of that. The sando was MASSIVE…. Read more >

brrr…i heart comfort food

So, the weather here has definitely changed. It is cold. No two ways about it. And yet, I still found it in me to start off the day with iced coffee? Plus vanilla silk soy milk. I am thinking I should just start investing in bigger silk cartons, since it has been established this will be a staple in my diet. Who am I kidding, this isn’t just a phase…Here’s the iced coffee + silk soy milkFor breakfast I had some dried fruit (the rest of the papayas, I finished the pineapples a while ago)…. Read more >
