A few people have been asking about my moving plans/details…or lack thereof… So here’s the deal: Cross-country moving is not exactly a piece of cake. And yet, this fact (that would ordinarily stress the bejeezus out of me) doesn’t even phase me because of where I am moving to. HOME!! I feel so at peace now that I know we are definitely getting back to the West Coast. Our days in NYC are numbered, but at the same time, there is still some flexibility in regards to how and when everything goes down (especially at… Read more >

As promised, I am back with an epic restaurant review. Since Kyle and I have a shot-gun countdown until we leave the NYCizzle, we decided it was muy imperativo that we start hitting up all the great dining spots that are on our to-taste list. (For the record, that list is about 5 years worth of meals long, so I will be pleased if we can even make a small dent in it…) Anyways. Up first on the list was Blue Hill. I first heard of Blue Hill Farms back on the 5th season of… Read more >

This weekend Kyle’s at UCLA for an orientation of sorts, and I’m working it up. (Yes, I do still have a job, but only for a few more weeks!) Hey, someone has to bring home the dough, right? I packed my goodies, as per usual. Salad. Bars. Teas. Carrots. Pretz/Raisins/Carob chips. Hummus. Apple. (I actually had two other apples that I bought at the Union Square farmers market on my lunch break, too) The size of the salad looks dwarfed by the photo on the right, but trust, it was large and in charge. It… Read more >

I won’t make you wait ‘til the end for this one…it’s GIVEAWAY time! Remember back when I showed you guys these cute Goody Green bags? They are especially cool because they go from the tiny folded up clutch (on the left), to the big carry-all (on the right), which is perfect for the spontaneous shopper. So say you go to Whole Foods thinking all you need is an avocado…and wind up with a basket full of $60 worth of groceries (just a hypothetical), if you have the Goody Green bag in your purse, it’s no… Read more >

Another sunny day 🙂 I think spring might be here to stay, yes? My camera spazzed out, and the photo evidence of my work eats are nowhere to be found. So all I have is dinner and dessert for ya. Ok? Here’s the day starting at 7:45 pm (give or take a few minutes). With the new season, comes a new chapter in Terry Walters’ cookbook. I love Clean Food. It’s my go-to book for ideas. They are simple but delicious. After the hummus heavy day I had, I definitely wanted a lighter dinner…and the… Read more >
