Eat, work, run

Work it bay-bay. My pre-packed food included: THREE bars (PB cookie Larabar, Chocolate Brownie Z bar, and a Peanut Toffee Buzz Clif bar) TWO apples …and a partridge in a pear tree ONE ginorm salad Like an onion, this sh!t had layers and layers: steamed kale, broccoli, BN squash, cannellini bean, cherry toms, and raisins – I added Bragg’s apple cider & liquid AA’s to it, too.  The spelt pretzels were the perf accompaniment (as anything with salt is). For the record, I skipped my AM starbeezies and brought my own tea bags (and I… Read more >

91 Thanksgiving posts

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving! Quite frankly, I delayed writing this post because I felt like everyone else’s thanksgiving eats were way more blog-worthy (and there were a LOT of them).  Plus, I didn’t get home from work until after 8 pm and all I wanted to do at that point was put on my PJs, watch football (slash Home Alone), and stuff my face (not in that order).  On a holiday such as this, it would feel weird to eat before giving thanks, and so I feel as though I should acknowledge what I’m grateful for… Read more >

A full lunch hour

This morning’s subway commute was eerily empty.  It always creeps me out a bit when there is nobody else in the car with me.  But then, I guess it’s better than being packed in the train like a can of sardines… Munchables for the day: Apple, dried papaya/pears, 365 spelt pretzels, PB&J dipped MoJo bar, Honey Graham Z bar, and un ensalada enorme. Work was nice and slow.  Happiness!  I love it when I get a full hour lunch break.  I enjoyed each and every bite of my packed eats. I even got off work… Read more >

Longest shift of my life

I know there’s a ton of TWSS potential with that post title, but unfortunately it is in reference to my j-o-bizzle (so get yo’ mind out of the gutter)!  How was my day?  Does that answer the question? (not that you really asked) Four of those are mine.  Four.  Normally I’m all about saving my cup and taking advantage of the free 54 cent refills.  But, since I worked through lunch, I didn’t even get the chance to run across the street to get my Starbucks fix.  I was barely hanging on (which I guess… Read more >
