big salad

Food from last week

Can I just show all the yummy things I’ve been stuffing my face with lately in one quick post?  Life before Thanksgiving did exist.  The last of the pumpkin cornbread muffins with eggs.   And yet another savory breakfast.  The to-go cup is because I was heading to MOPS after and wanted to be able to continue my decaf fueling there.   We made pies!  I actually can’t take any credit for this because I was holding P the whole time and another mom did 99% of the work for me.  He had a meltdown… Read more >

Ice cream maker!!!

Going old school with the “what I ate” style blogging. For breakfast I went to Crepeville with a coworker.  She was just getting off (a really crappy) night shift, so she vented to me and I listened.  P spent the morning throwing things from the stroller to the ground.  Whatever keeps you amused little man.   I got the tofu scramble which comes with both hash browns and a bagel.  The portions at Crepeville are massively massive (LOVE!!!) so I took home the leftovers for Kyle.  Which is the bagel you see above. Seriously Crepeville… Read more >

This week past and future

Last I left off was my birthday dinner.  The next day we went to brunch at La Boulange.  Mine is the salad on the right.  Odd for a breakfast choice, but the taste buds wanted it.

Now that’s a lot of food

Here’s my 99% complete documented eats (second helpings noted).  Breakfast: fried egg + 2 slices of chocolate cherry quickbread (half of one was eaten during the cooking process) Lunch: 3 slices of GF bread toasted and topped with avocado/egg salad + carrots + grapes + strawberries I get questions if I eat fruit (because I rarely show those little snacks) and the answer is YES!  Of course!  I tend to eat seasonally – so lately it’s been grapes, figs, strawberries, raspberries, and… Read more >

Double party weekend

Every once in a while there are certain weekends which seem to have everything happening.  All on the same day.  You know those weekends, right?  Where you have plans to do one thing and then you find out there’s four weddings, a baby shower, a football game, a marathon, the Art & Wine Festival, and all the other things going on…this past weekend was one of those.  So is October 12th.  Why is everything happening on Oct 12th? Anyway, I switched my Saturday shift to allow me to attend two birthday parties.  The first was… Read more >
