Calcium for dessert (giveaway)

A few weeks ago I received a sample of Adora Calcium supplements in the mail. I’d heard of them before, but never really given them a second thought. They even sat on the counter unopened a few days after I got them. But when I finally got around to bringing a few with me to work, it was love at first taste.  Since then, they have been in every. single. lunch box I’ve brought to work.  Whats more, is that I actually look forward to finishing lunch just to enjoy them for “dessert”.  The same… Read more >

Here’s a preview of some of the companies I’m most thrilled to check out this year: Starting with the baked goods… Love Grown Foods Udi’s Gluten Free Silver Hills Bakery Alvarado Street Bakery Food For Life/Ezekiel One Degree Organic Foods Kettle Foods Dr. Kracker Attune Foods Glutino Bob’s Red Mill Barbara’s Bakery Nana’s Way Better Snacks Arnel’s Gluten Free OMG!

Nurse out of water

Ordinarily I don’t mind floating, but today I was SO not in the mood for it.  Fish out of water x 12 hours…blah. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes it’s nice to spend a day with a different patient population – like sampling yogurt, you get a small taste without having to commit.  But I also love routine (who doesn’t?) and after working yesterday, I was looking forward to having the familiarity that comes with a second shift in a row.  Even when patients are busy I’m still able to get a sense of rhythm by… Read more >

Just a Wednesday

You must be sick of non-food (aka house progress) posts by now, huh? Ok, how about my work food for a change of pace (slash return to the real reason I blog). Breakfast…   Oats, puffed millet, white chia seeds and sunflower seed butter on top. You want me to back up with that?   1 cup whole rolled oats + 1 1/2 cups boiling water + 1/4 cup puffed millet + 1 tbsp chia seeds   Once I let them sit a bit, the water got soaked up and the chia seeds gelled, so… Read more >

Eggs & Avo

For reals, this duo is like the new A-list couple.  Except instead of being featured all over E! it’s my camera’s memory card that’s reached capacity.  Brangelina can suck it, this pair has beauty and brains.  Well, not really, but whatever.    For the past week, I’ve been eating avocado and eggs in every form I can imagine.  This sandwich was one I created a few weeks ago and it just keeps coming back.  That’s how you know when a recipe is a real winner.   hard boiled eggs honey mustard dijon mustard butternut squash… Read more >
