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 >

I don’t think I need to explain the above title if you wasted your morning the same way I did tuned into the Real Housewives of NY. I was up at the crack of dawn thanks to a text message from Jess at 6 am. Awesome. Payback’s a bitch Jess, so prepare yourself for a 2 am drunk dial from the west coast this weekend… Needless to say I was jonesing for some caffeine shortly after. I messed the froth up on this one, but that’s what happens when you are brewing in the dark… Read more >

Don’t worry I’m a clean hippie. Showers are me time. But wait ‘til you see my lovely dinner…it’s packed with salad newbies. But first things first. I have no idea why, but I woke up WAY freakin’ early. On a non-work day, WTF!? Anyways, I had a frothy mug of joe to get things rolling…followed by a strawberry chobz with diced strawberries on top. Mmmm…look at all that greek yogurt goodness. I also had an apple while reading blogs and watching last night’s Gossip Girl and The Hills killing some brain cells. After I… Read more >
