It’s a bird, it’s a plane…

I love my new camera.  Love it!  It’s pure bliss having a toy that takes such pretty pictures. The only negative aspect of having a Canon Rebel DSLR is lugging it around (point-and-shoot cameras definitely have the convenience factor of size and portability working to their advantage). Truth be told, camera cases are hideous.  While borrowing my mom’s this winter, I realized I never brought it out at night because of this aesthetic issue.  And such a fine camera should never be left at home.  What’s a girl to do?! Solution: camera bags that are… Read more >

A little bit of everything

H is for hemp… Hemp protein powder, that is.  I got this sample from NutsOnline a month ago but wasn’t really sure what to do with it. Good thing I remembered it when “h” day rolled around for my alphebruary challenge. I used 1 tbsp of it in a smoothie because I was nervous about how strong the flavor would be. I liked it so much I made it again the next day, too.  Yes, it’s a little gritty.  But I kinda liked the gritty texture.  I’m not generally a big protein powder gal (if… Read more >

Garbanzo Goop

The reason this post was (is) delayed is because my “g” recipe sucked.  Alphebruary is getting hard!  Turns out there are some letters without very many food options.  I had heard you could make hummus out of garbanzo flour, and frankly I had my doubts going into it (should probably have tuned into that intuition).  But then I thought, hummus really is just garbanzo beans…and the flour is just a different form of the stuff… Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble.   I started this little garbanzo flour journey by following the recipe on the Bob’s Red… Read more >

A day late

…and a dollar letter short. I’ll be back with the alphebruary eats later (g and h happened but my energy needs to be higher to share the deets). Work eats, however, don’t call for much brain power.  I’m not saying they were mindlessly dull…but I kinda am ;)  Kidding!  [But they were VERY similar] I’ve been on a fruity tooty kick lately.  Starting the day with water, Jillian, coffee, coffee, and fruit, fruit, fruit.  Because it’s sunny and I’m downing fresh strawberries and blueberries constantly, I feel like next week should be the 4th of… Read more >

Sights unseen

This weekend was so much fun.  I had Friday through Sunday off and Kyle was actually caught up with all his MBA shiz, so we got to spend a lot of time relaxing (together). I’ve shown you the d & e meals, but Superbowl Sunday was definitely the highlight.  PACKERS what whaaaat!    Friday morning started with an early breakfast for me.  I was up and at ‘em with the sun garbage trucks (which was fine since I had fallen asleep at 7:30 the night before).  I made myself a warm bowl of oats and buckwheat. … Read more >
