This Monday was especially painful because the sun was radiating into my patients’ rooms all day long. It was heavenly, but I was stuck in the hospital. So it was agonizingly beautiful. Such a tease! At least I had good food to enjoy on my lunch break… Bars, apples, baggies, tupperware. Fabulous. In the tupp: spinach, seaweed salad, carrots, broccoli, and pepitas. To the people who asked, I sometimes make my own seaweed salad, but this one was store bought (you can see a different salad of the same brand here). Occasionally they have them… Read more >

As far as weekends go, this was pretty damn near perfect. It started with a 10 am wake up call (sleep in much?), and then a bit of coffee loading. Since it was a GORGEOUS 40+ degrees outside, Kyle and I wanted to get our faces in the sun asap. So, after snacking on one (and a half) of my chia seed oat bars, we set out for a run in the park. I can’t even tell you how long I have been waiting to feel the road beneath my feet. The treadmill just hasn’t… Read more >

I would just like to say how awesome it is entering the subway at 5:45 am in darkness and reemerging to a glorious sunrise. Light in the morning! Can I get a hell yeah? Anyways, here are my eats, pre-packed and ready for the trek to the hospital… Apples, salad, carrots, hummus, and bars (PB&J Dipped MoJo bar, Super Protein Odwalla bar, and the latest PranaBar flavor to rock my world). In zee salad: spinach, steamed brocc, zucch, sesame/seaweed salad, and dried cranz. My feelings about the Cranberry Goji Supercharger PranaBar cannot be masked. Effing… Read more >

After my sophisticated breakfast of an apple and frothy cup of coffee, I headed to the dentist’s office for a routine cleaning. Since I was in midtown, I met up with Kyle after my appointment to show off my sparkling new pearly whites. I owe my cavity free chompers to these babies. Kyle and I went for a little stroll before he returned to work. Entering through Artisan’s Gate (Central Park South and 7th Ave)… A crossroads in The Park (if there’s ever a park to be capitalized and deemed “THE” park, it should be… Read more >

I made a Mexi-kale salad for lunch. Sure, I just coined the term, but I think it fits. On top of the kale was wakame seaweed, butternut squash, cherry tomatoes, black beans, and some salsa (added later so it wouldn’t sogg-ify). Yes, I realize the involvement of seaweed in a south-of-the-border themed salad may be a bit of a stretch, but can’t I just claim poetic license on this one? To complete the (admittedly weak) Mexi theme, I also had a baggy of Brad’s Blues All Natural blue corn tortilla chips which added the perfect… Read more >
