Rockin’ the bling

I was flashing my ice ALL OVER the hospital today 🙂 I can’t help it, I’m freakin’ engaged and can’t hide the excitement!!! I packed my lunch the night before, see: Even in my extremely exhausted state (cross country flights are NOT my friend), I still managed to make a mean ass sammie, consisting of smart deli “turkey,” cranz, honey mustard, and lettuce on ww bread. And as for the rest of the days munchies: Apricot Clif bar, Strawberry/Pomegranate odwalla bar, wasabi peas, and carrots. Add a few billion pounds of coffee in there and… Read more >

More west coastin’

I just couldn’t pack it all into one post (it was getting obscene).  So now I’m trying to pick out the very best of the best to share.   Athenos hummus is G-O-O-D, good! Hummus and avocado = that’s AMORE!   NOM NOM. As for wedding and late night partying…most of those pics are too R rated for blogging 😉 Here are a few, though. The fam (L to R: youngest sis, middle sis, dad, mom, me) The girlies (above AND below).   Hooray for LA-LA-land friends!! I tried to hit up all my fave… Read more >

empty containers

I couldn’t decide on a title for this post. The real title should have been “how much chocolate and dessert food can you consume in 48 hours”…but that doesn’t really roll off the tongue. So, instead I decided to post photos of all the containers I’ve managed to polish off (as if wasting food in our move is my biggest concern). More death by chocolate (vegan) cake…aka the BEST slice of heaven on Earth.  Yuuuummmmmy!!  And this was only half way through (the original slice was about the size of a brick). And for those… Read more >

Oh, it hit the fan alright!

I apologize for being away (I missed you all, even if you didn’t notice I was gone, haha).  These past few days have been insane.  I can’t even begin to try to condense it into a blog-worthy Cliff’s notes version.  So… (a) I was working a LOT – gotta get the cash flow to pay those billz, yo! (b) A patient stroked out RIGHT before I was supposed to head out on my lunch break (the blogger meet up, no less) – ahhhhhh!  I hate to say which part of that last sentence disappointed me… Read more >

Happy Birthday Kyle!

This is gonna be snappy because I’m tired and grumpy. AM: I made some java with silk and sf vanilla syrup…which I sipped while doing some mega apartment cleaning. I had an apple for a mid-morning snack. Thrilling, I know. And then the fun began…that’s right, I’m talking March Madness!!! A few quarters under way, I got lunch ready. I spread some plain greek yogurt and red pepper hummus on a whole wheat tortilla, then added in spinach, shredded carrots, and baked tofu (more from yesterday’s batch), with lots of CURRY on top. I don’t… Read more >
