I didn’t even realize how ridiculously orange my meals were, until I uploaded all the pictures…holy naranja! I woke up fairly early for my day off, which allowed time for serious AM chowing. This mug vat of coffee had froth up the yin-yang (just the way I like it). I also toasted an English muffin and caked on the Smart Balance light. Puddles of butter normally skeeve me out, but for some reason I craved it today. Throughout the morning I read blogs and snacked on lots of fruit. Gotta enjoy the (dwindling) sweet part… Read more >

Are you scared of the title? Haha…don’t worry, I haven’t gone quite that hummus crazy (yet!). But I did bake a batch of falafel today, which looked pretty damn similar to (how I would picture) chickpea pastries. But before I went to town in the kitch, I got my breks-face on. Coffee. Froth. Bluebeezies. Chobani. I heart my antioxidants and Chobz knows how to do it right. The store has been running on empty in the greek yogurt department, so I finally was able to re-stock. I actually went to the grocery store at 9… Read more >

Even though I had today off of work, I still had to set my alarm because I had an appointment. So I was up and at em with the roosters pigeons (?), which was kinda nice because I rarely get to see my K love in the AM. He made a massive pot of java, which I had with minimal frills (I was lazy and didn’t feel like frothing). Crossword & coffee makes E a happy hippie 🙂 Yesterday’s oats were so bomb.com that I decided to repeat the morning routine. This time I went… Read more >

Hi Kids! How are you all on this fine Monday! I’m feeling pretty fab myself, despite the 50 degree weather. I thought winter was over, but apparently not… After yesterday’s late night grub sesh I thought I wouldn’t be very hungry until later in the morning, but I woke up with the same hankering appetite as usual. I guess that just goes to show you, when you listen to your body (even if it tells you it wants 4 Vita Muffins with peanut butter at 11 PM), you can’t do too much damage. I’d also… Read more >

Apparently I have to choose between saving for a wedding, and keeping up with the food blog fads. So, in the interest of staying engaged, I’m unable to juice for breakfast. No, not that kind of juice. This kind. So I settled for the poor man’s version (aka a smoothie). Into the blender went: 1/2 cup almond milk, 1/2 cup OJ, 3 oz POM, applesauce cup, frozen plain tofu cubes… and the juice of 1 orange (hand squeezed). Nice before and after, no? The predominant color is the almond milk and plain tofu. Good thing… Read more >
