This weekend was a (partial) work weekend. And it was INSANELY hot. Fall is nowhere in sight and while I usually love 90 degree temps, my hormones are not on the same page. At all. Our AC isn’t doing much of anything and so Kyle and I spent a large part of the weekend bitching about how uncomfortable and sweaty we were. So productive. Anyway. I did take pics of parts of the weekend, so I’ll share. Friday morning I had oatmeal with apples and almond butter. Even though it was hot, it was the… Read more >

Sometimes when I work night shifts, I forget to make dinner for Kyle. I usually realize it around 5 pm – right about the time I should be packing up my stuff and heading to the hospital. This isn’t a tragedy by any means, he’s a great cook, and could certainly make a good meal for himself. But I like making things easy for him when he gets home from a long work day (and hideous commute). Plus, it makes me happy (and I know he loves it). Doesn’t this look gourmet? I’m sure… Read more >

Day shift food, including oatmeal, lasagna (two servings), apple, carrots & hummus, and a cinnamon roll. Details below. Pumpkin and raisin oats made with vanilla almond milk. I’m officially good and ready for fall. Lasagna that’s bigger than my head. I had half at lunch time and half an hour later. Snack options. I got home around the same time as Kyle and we each dug into the quinoa quiche I made earlier in the week (meal planning still going strong). I cut it into quarters because I figured it was pretty likely we would… Read more >

I finally did it. I got over the “ick” of Mexican food that the stomach bug I caught in Cabo and morning sickness did to me. Kyle’s very happy about this since he’s been in taco withdrawal. Taco Night!! The prep for each ingredient was minimal. home-made baked taco shells (new method!) vegetarian refried beans lettuce Sabra guacamole Sabra salsa mexi-rice First up, the taco shells. I can’t remember where I heard about this trick, but it stuck with me and I knew I had to give it a shot. Pre heat oven to 375… Read more >

Contrary to what my posting may indicate, I do still work! Sorry I’ve been withholding my packed eats from you guys. I have only been taking pictures of 50% of them, though, so here’s what I’ve got. Hope this helps you with some ideas! Oats. Veggies. Pretzels. Sabra hummus (x2). Lasagna (leftover). Cookies. Apple. Candied ginger. Oat preference as of late: nuts, cinnamon & dried cherries. When the cherries soak overnight they plump up to get to be the size of full cherries. It’s pretty cool. Now that we are meal planning, my real real… Read more >
