Apparently I have to choose between saving for a wedding, and keeping up with the food blog fads. So, in the interest of staying engaged, I’m unable to juice for breakfast. No, not that kind of juice. This kind. So I settled for the poor man’s version (aka a smoothie). Into the blender went: 1/2 cup almond milk, 1/2 cup OJ, 3 oz POM, applesauce cup, frozen plain tofu cubes… and the juice of 1 orange (hand squeezed). Nice before and after, no? The predominant color is the almond milk and plain tofu. Good thing… Read more >

I thought it was Friday all day…so confused. Whatever, Thursday means The Office, so it’s all good. 5 AM. Frothed me some coffee…and then I was off to work! Since I was running crazy late, I had this little baby on the way to work. For the record, I do NOT enjoy eating on the subway, especially when I’m drenched from my rainy mad dash to the station. As usual, I made my lunch the night before to bring to work, which included a hugh jass salad of spinach, brocc slaw, shredded carrots, cherry… Read more >

(At the crack of AM) breakfast: Coffee. Froth. CranBran Vitatop. Off to work. Snack: Newman’s Own Organic Honey Wheat Pretzels I ate these all day long, and finished the whole bag myself. Addicting, for sure. I rarely buy pretz because of this very phenomenon. I especially loved this honey wheat flavor, though, because it has the perfect combination of salty and sweet – way better than regular pretzels. The huge salt crystals kinda ripped up the roof of my mouth though. I think that’s my issue though, not Newman’s Own. I swear I’ve gained 5… Read more >

Happy Cinco de Mayo bloggies! Five is my fave number, so I have always loved this date, add in Mexican food, and I’m partying like it’s my birthday! Today was a ridic. I couldn’t take pics of everything I ate. Cliff’s notes: wedding, food, wedding, food, wedding, food, wedding The day started off rough. I had frothing issues. **Side note: I didn’t know there was a difference in Stevia derived sweeteners (Truvia, Rebiana, PureVia, SweetLeaf, etc.), but after one of Gena’s posts, I looked on the back of my NuStevia box and was a… Read more >

Last night I got the best surprise. After 10+ hours of traveling I was so excited to find a HUGE package waiting for me (TWSS). Holy So.Much.Stuff. Newman’s Own hooked it UP!! Can you even believe all these goodies fit in a box. This is my heaven. I hardly knew where to begin! Even though it was well past midnight I had to try something (duh). I think it’s pretty obv what I wanted, since K has been making my mouth water for days…HERMITS! Stats for the original flavor: Organic Unbleached Wheat Flour, Organic… Read more >
