I really think the temp on unit today was almost in the 90’s. I don’t really know why…but everyone who came to our floor commented about the sauna-like environment so I KNOW it wasn’t just me. So, it’s safe to say I was sweating BULLETS all day long. Ok, but let’s get down to business with the grub… NEW kind of tofu!!! I baked TJs tofu yesterday for the weeks worth of lunches… While the kcals were a bit more than the Lite brand I usually get (Nasoya silken firm), it turned golden brown WAY… Read more >

Hi bloggies!! I’m BACK in the big apple now, after a SUPER fun weekend in Vermont. It’s so nice to get out of the craziness that is NYC every once in a while – and the ‘burbs of Vermont were just the place to relax and unwind. It’s so small town. So, back tracking a bit to Friday…Kyle’s boss generously let us use his cabin (which sleeps 13) so we decided to head up to Vermont for the weekend for a fun little skiing getaway with another couple. Hooray! SO FUN! But, very very cold…. Read more >

White as far as the eye can see. I love that I work on the 10th floor, because the view is really pretty, especially on super snowy days! It was snowing all day, but I still managed to make it to the ‘bucks before work and on my lunch break. I was the only person on the unit today, so I had all the patients. Baller! No but for reals it was kinda crazy. One of my patients went into sinus tach and then desaturated to the 86% range even with 60% O2 face mask… Read more >

The weather cracked into the 40s today, time to celebrate! I was so happy when I woke up, it was sunny out and I had the day off to enjoy the nice weather outside. Here’s my morning cup of joe…along with some figs, carob covered raisins, and the crossword. Talk about starting the day off right. Since I woke up earlier than usual, I got hungry earlier than usual, so I made some french toast that I doused in Earth Balance. This whole wheat Alvarado Street bread is good, maybe even better than the California… Read more >

So, today’s breakfast must have been subconsciously inspired by the Superbowl, since I had a super bowl of oats followed by another super bowl of soy yogurt with figs and raisins. I think Bob’s Red Mill is my fave brand of oats now. They are so fluffy, despite being “quick” oats. I added in creamy peanut butter, carob covered raisins, and vanilla soy milk. Carob covered raisins are amazing to add in to oats because they melt and you are left with a bowl of raisins along with a slight “chocolate” flavoring to your oats. … Read more >
