At the risk of sounding insensitive, is anyone else really sick of all this Michael Jackson coverage? I loved the king of pop just as much as the next person, but excessive coverage has come and gone…at this point, it is borderline hideous. What ever happened to just having a moment of silence to show your respect? Rather than undergo 20 minutes of channel flipping to avoid the aforementioned topic, my tivo (aka Kathy Griffin) came to the rescue. As did Starbucks’ gazebo blend 🙂 Can I help it if I crave sweets for breakfast? … Read more >

Wuddup sissy-poos? What’s crack-a-lack-in in the blog ‘hood? If the title confuses you, here are the latest trilogy of events in my life: I worked 3 days in a row, tried 3 new bars, and downed 3 bottles of Kombucha. I’m pretty sure I left off with my pre-packed eats for Sunday’s workity-work, which almost satisfied me, but needed a little supplementation at lunch time. Enter Grape Kombucha!! Caroline, you were right, this one is divine! It totally reminded me of popsicles on a hot summer day. Too bad I was on my lunch break… Read more >

You guys are SO hilarious! I love that so many people noticed and commented on the lack of hummus (gasp) in my previous post, I literally laughed out loud. Apparently I have a trademark that I wasn’t aware of until now. Well, if it helps you sleep at night, I made up for it with a crap load of chickpea love today 🙂 The plum/melon fruit platter (above) was my dessert last night, btw. I thought I’d try and get to bed EXTRA early since I have been having MAYJ sleep issues. For reals. This… Read more >

Remember back in the day when Facebook was new and cool and only for nerds college kids? Those were the good ‘ol days…now it’s open to everyone and their mother. And I mean that literally. Parents on a “social networking” site is just awkward. I’m sorry if it seems harsh, but I think all kids with mid-life-crisis-prone parents need to sit them down and explain to them what’s up. If we don’t stand strong now and prevent this from progressing, next thing you know you’ll be accepting “friend” requests from your college professors, or worse,… Read more >

You guys are so sweet for sending me happy-sleepy-time thoughts…I wish I could say it worked :( After my seriously deficient shut-eye on Monday night, I was SO optimistic about getting to sleep extra early…I was all tucked in by 10 pm, ready to snooze the night away. With my alarm set for 5 am, I thought 7 hours would be decent enough to get me through my first day back at work. Talk about wishful thinking!! I fell right asleep, only to wake up at 11:00 confused as all hell. Only an HOUR passed!?! Grrrr… … Read more >
