“Home is where the heart is” Yup. It’s true. Lucky for me, I consider both the Bay Area AND Santa Monica “home.” So even though it was a total joy to spend the weekend with my parents and sister, I’m glad to be back with Kyle. Win win. Eventually I will recap the wedding in more detail (so fun!), but for now, I’m trying to get organized for work tomorrow (reality check…wah wah). I had leftovers from Patxi’s for Saturday brunch. I had baby carrots a la mode because I enjoy fiber. Even day… Read more >

What a day. Full of a bizarre mix of emotions. I’m not sure I can totally put it into words, so for now I’ll just stick to the photos. Well, what do we have here? My last work lunch for a while included a big salad with a side of carrots and Livin’ Spoonful raw crackers, along with 2 apples, a vegan oatmeal raisin cookie from Candle, and a tupp ‘o zuppa. This was the other half of Amy’s Southwestern Veg soup bulked up with extra frozen veggies (corn and broccoli). As for the cookie, well,… Read more >

Saturday started with the ordinary: coffee, blog, tv, yadda yadda. Eventually I made a brunch platter (of the not so ordinary nature). Maybe carrots and apples seem weird for breakfast the first meal of the day, but it’s what I was craving. And if you think I had these without hummus, then you clearly don’t know me at all. I finished off the rest of the (just opened) tub with a 7 grain roll, followed by grapes. Nothing like 8 servings of chickpea heaven to get the day started right. After a hearty mug of… Read more >

Sorry to go AWOL on you all this weekend…I was livin’ it up in the hospital (or a less fun sounding version of that story). Either way, I was packing lunches, eating on the fly, and here’s the quick and dirty… Saturday Salad, fruit, veg, bacteria coated baggy, super protein Odwalla bar. First at bat, a salad with spinach, red bell pepps, edamame, raw cauliflower, and dried cranz (with a heavy handed pour of Bragg’s liquid aminos on top). On deck, a bag of carrots, and a bag of pretzels (and by the way, I… Read more >

***Holy crap you guys like oats! I’m loving all the entries to my giveaway, so keep ‘em coming!!*** Well, if yesterday I forgot what the gym was, today I forgot what work was… Apparently, several days off in a row –> Reality check! [Ouch] At least I remembered how to pack a lunch…look at all the colors! I literally think my work eats managed to rep’ every color (can we count the dried cranz as purple?). It may be a stretch but I’m calling it poetic license. Deal. Apple. Apple. Bar. Bar. Bar. Salad. Carrots…. Read more >
