Weekend of thanks 2012

I know Thanksgiving was ages ago, but I’m only just getting around to uploading photos and such because my week/end was SO packed I couldn’t be bothered to worry about blogging in a timely manner.    Shorts and a tank top in late November…must be Southern California… For the first time in as long as I can remember ever (!!) I got the holiday – PLUS it’s surrounding days – off of work.  Kyle and I took full advantage, and drove down to his parents’ house in San Clemente on Wednesday afternoon, to stay through… Read more >

Parties & Dates

After a long work week, Kyle and I soaked up the weekend like two sponges.  And of course, I’m only just now getting around to blogging about it.  So pathetic.  But let’s just pretend this is timely and the weekend was yesterday, okay? Starting with a Friday date night at Whole Foods.   He got off work before I did so he walked from our apt and met me there once I peaced out of the hospital.   I had salad bar ADD, but eventually got myself squared away with a monster salad – complete… Read more >

A three-fer

Not meatballs. I should have made a bigger batch of these coconut macaroon things because Kyle ate half of them before I even tried one.   Work food.  Banana.  Carrots.  Macaroons. It would probably blow your mind to know how many carrots we go through in our little hippie household.  I eat half a pound a day, minimum.  If our fridge were bigger it would be packed with orange.  As it is, we have one crisper drawer solely devoted to those two pound bags (plural). Almond milk is another thing we seem to restock at… Read more >

DC: Identity Crisis

Let me first start out by saying, I’m not usually a good liar.  In fact, I have a pretty hard time holding a secret for longer than a minute.  Kyle has learned this the hard way, and as a result, he rarely shares top secret stuff with me (friends’ impending engagements, etc.).  I’m not a gossip, I just like sharing information!  Let that be a lesson to everyone.  So.  Backing up to Thursday.  Our flight was set to take off around 1 pm, so Kyle and I woke up early, ate breakfast, finished some last… Read more >

Self fulfilling prophecy

I got 5 pounds of oats from Tropical Traditions and I’m working my way through it pretty damn quickly.  Aside from my daily – sometimes double – dose of oatmeal, I have been baking quite a bit too.  Since I had bananas with more brown than yellow sitting on the counter, I knew time was ticking until they would be freezer bound.  But I already have plenty of frozen nanners!  Must. Use. ASAP.   I was winging it as I went with this recipe, but it came out great, so I will share. Peanut Banana… Read more >
