Throw it in the bag

Now this is a beautiful sight. This is what dreams are made of…for a hummus lover at least.  🙂 On Monday night I had about half of the tub for dinner (with every dippable I could get my hands on), and the rest I packed up for Tuesday’s lunch.  You know how I do it… Just throw it in the bag The same thing that the bankrobber told the teller Just throw it in the bag That’s the way it suppose to be A real [bleep] ‘posed to help you out with the groceries Just… Read more >

New scheduling

Yup, it’s back to le grind.  12 hour shifts require lots of tupperwared options…and as you all know by now, I’m quite the preppy prep-ster over the weekends.  Glad my type-A ways inspired some of you to do the damn thang, too.  Left: spinach salad with roasted veg (brussels, carrots, broccoli, delicata squash) Right: quinoa with chopped pear, raisins, cinnamon & PB dressing (PB flour and almond milk) It’s a fairly simple dish, but dang am I obsessed. OBSESSED! Oh hey, look at that.  Never seen this guy before. Oh wait, that’s right, I’ve had it… Read more >

It’s my weekend and I’ll blog if I want to

Phew! Just finished a string of shifts at the hospital and I’m ready to start my weekend.  So this Friday will be a day of catch up – I’m mega behind in all parts of life, including blogging.  Last time I checked, blogging about Sunday’s meal on Thursday is…what’s the word?…ah yes, a lost cause.  The Foodbuzz festival was no ordinary situation, though.  I scored a whole lotta swag that I can’t wait to share with all y’all.  For instance, this cute lil bugger. A Frog Hollow Farms pear.  I had never heard of Frog… Read more >

Sweet and au naturel

My morning started with this newbie. To me, “Au Naturel”…is the classy way of saying “hippie food”…so clearly this was right up my alley.  Like the rest of Udi’s products, this granola is gluten free.  It also happens to be dairy free, soy free, nut free, and egg free (it’s is not vegan because it contains honey). The only ingredients are certified gluten free oats, wildflower honey and canola oil.  That’s it!  THREE ingredients.  No wonder they call it Au Naturel… I packed myself a tupperware full of granola to add to my (unpictured) plain… Read more >

Nine two nine

It’s 9/29!  You didn’t think I’d forget National Coffee Day did you!?!? Not a chance.  I’m a tad behind in blogging because I’ve been playing catch-up around the casa.  I’ve been productive, but I hardly deserve a pat on the back since it’s all stuff that I should have accomplished last weekend.  For breakfast on Tuesday I had a bowl of One Lucky Duck grawnola, cheerios, and bananas on top of greek yogurt. Tuesday I got my running mojo back and after this bowl of deliciousness had digested I set off for a nice 30 minutes… Read more >
