As promised, I had a chocolate-y delicious Amazing Green concoction for dessert Wednesday night. Notice the blender top? Yes, I went for a more ambitious drink, and blended in ice and half a frozen banana to achieve the perfect chocolate banana dessert. And I thought my high school weekend job would never come in handy! Look at me now Jamba! Anyways, as always, I packed my lunch for work, which included the same cast of characters… Dried apples, dried mango, english muffin with it’s other half (hummus), choc/chip/peanut odwalla bar (see nutritionals above), apple, salad. I… Read more >

Are you scared of the title? Haha…don’t worry, I haven’t gone quite that hummus crazy (yet!). But I did bake a batch of falafel today, which looked pretty damn similar to (how I would picture) chickpea pastries. But before I went to town in the kitch, I got my breks-face on. Coffee. Froth. Bluebeezies. Chobani. I heart my antioxidants and Chobz knows how to do it right. The store has been running on empty in the greek yogurt department, so I finally was able to re-stock. I actually went to the grocery store at 9… 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 >

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 >

Talk about karma. Sleeping in ‘til noon yesterday backfired hard core last night! Neither Kyle nor I could fall asleep, and as we watched the hours on the clock tick by, we finally decided enough was enough…so we got back up at 2 am and watched some tv. Sleep FAIL. At 4 am I still wasn’t tired, but I forced myself back to bed…Kyle fell asleep (lucky ^%$) while I tossed and turned until 6 am. Fortunately, I had the presence of mind to set my alarm, so instead of sleeping ‘til noon again, I… Read more >
