Ugh. Of all the mornings to wake up without coffee, this was def poor planning on my Kyle’s part (just kidding, I’m obviously the one that finished it and didn’t buy more). Clearly, a trip to Starbucks was the first task of the day. Nothing makes me happier than the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the AM. Nothing! We got the House Blend (with a free cup of joe). Kyle headed off to MM, so I made myself some toast and sipped my coffee (only way to nurse a hang over). I kinda burnt… Read more >

No I didn’t eat Chinese chicken and mushrooms for breakfast, that was just an answer to my daily crossword….and now it’s stuck in my head. Admit it, it IS fun to say! Along with the java, I had 2 pieces of toast with PB (the safe kind). YUM! Alvarado Street bread, kids. Love it! The weather wasn’t even in the double digits, and yet I was in the mood for a cold smoothie for lunch. It could be because I spent the morning reading Twilight (wrapped in 35 blankets)…no shame in it! For those… Read more >

I’ll admit, I love fig newtons/bars, but the thought of eating a fig alone was not too appealing…They just look weird. But after seeing Erin’s picture of the fig’s cross section, I was intrigued…could their be a delicious fruit hiding beyond these hideous exteriors?? Turns out, they are way yummmmm! Maybe even a new fave dried fruit? (and that’s tough company) As I was doing my daily food blog surfing, I came upon a contest I couldn’t ignore! Everyone should check out Oh She Glows, since well over half the products I now obsess… Read more >

I got chills! Yes, we can. No I wasn’t there, these pics are from my television. Anyways…onto the food! What better way to start off the day than with a warm frothy coffee and french toast. I used egg beaters, vanilla silk and cinnamon with ww bread, and then CAKED on the earth balance. Seriously, I went overboard with the EB… I know it’s vegan and all, but I’m not sure that’s an acceptable excuse to add as much as I do to my food. I also had a blueberry o’soy. Loves it. For… Read more >

Happy MLK Jr. day! Even though we don’t get holidays in the hospital, I actually have today off, so I can appreciate the holiday like everyone else (meaning Kyle)! I slept in and enjoyed a huge froth-filled latte while watching the View. Kyle’s not a huge fan of the View, so he was working on the computer to block out “Whoopi’s obnoxious voice.” I made myself a little somethin’ somethin’ for brunch – an open-faced PB quesadilla with a WW tortilla and peanut butter. I’ve never had this brand of tortilla, in fact our grocery… Read more >
