Shout out to the ones I love

If Pigpen and Courtney Love shared a teeny tiny living space, I’d imagine it would still look more organized than our apartment.  Moving isn’t fun.  There’s chaos everywhere.  Given that, I believe I deserve mayj props for busting out a semi respectable breakfast. Berry carob pancakes 1 1/2 cup brown rice flour 2 tsp NuNaturals stevia 2 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup frozen (and then thawed) berries 1/4 cup carob chips 1 shake Marx Foods salt 1 cup Silk vanilla soymilk I gobbled them up hot off the press…much like the Cosmo, Bride, and InStyle… Read more >

T minus twelve

What a day.  Full of a bizarre mix of emotions.  I’m not sure I can totally put it into words, so for now I’ll just stick to the photos. Well, what do we have here?  My last work lunch for a while included a big salad with a side of carrots and Livin’ Spoonful raw crackers, along with 2 apples, a vegan oatmeal raisin cookie from Candle, and a tupp ‘o zuppa.  This was the other half of Amy’s Southwestern Veg soup bulked up with extra frozen veggies (corn and broccoli).  As for the cookie, well,… Read more >

What’s the skinny on Lady Gaga?

Thanks for the support guys!  I am soooo excited to head West, and we don’t have that much time left until we peace out of the big apple either!  It’s crazy.  So my latest activities have been moving related: truck rentals/appraisals packing/storage research transferring my RN license changing my address for everything under the sun updating my resume renewing my passport (unrelated to moving but it does expire soon) wedding, wedding, wedding So cooking has been on the backburner…and pics of my AM eats are MIA, but trust me you’re missing nada.  Dinner isn’t exciting… Read more >

Days that start with the letter “s”

Saturday was a work day.  F to the U.N.  Packed nom-noms are some of the usual suspects, as well as some new members.  Carrots, salad, apples, bars, and a baggie of goodies.  Tummy-wise, I felt a little bit better, but certainly not great.  In the non-transparent bag: almonds, carob chips, raisins, pistachios, cashews, and pretzels. This Belle Bananas Foster flavored 18 Rabbits bar was another winner.  I’m not usually a banana nut fan, but this may be the bar that changes that.  It’s oaty, with good breakability, perfect level of sweetness, and reminds me of… Read more >

What’s your carbon footprint?

I love all the tea suggestions you guys have/had for me!!  Keep ‘em coming, I already added several to my grocery list (much to Kyle’s dismay). Yesterday I felt sick for much of the day, so I don’t have many pics (it’s a sad day when culinary creations aren’t high on my to-do list).  Instead of showing you bags of pretzels and bowls of oats, I am going to do a different kind of post.  While watching yesterday’s ellen, I was inspired to do a bit of research. As a self-proclaimed “hippie,” I consider my… Read more >
