Beat box wrapping

When I get behind in blogging, I tend to get overwhelmed and as a result meals fall into the undocumented abyss.  Sometimes I’m able to catch up, but sometimes I have to simply cut my losses and move on.  I never want emptying my camera to feel like a chore, so I apologize.  To the yummy food that misses it’s moment in the spotlight – I’m sorry.  To you all for neglecting to share some mighty fine meals – I’m sorry.  Alas, such is life.  Forward we go! This weekend is already busy and it’s… Read more >

Log seitan

I really love seitan and because it’s so simple to make I really have no excuse for not doing so more often.  I spend so much cashola on the prepared kinds at Whole Foods.  That’s not okay.  Especially because I just dropped a thou$and smackers on flights to Spain and Paris (and there may be some car damage repairs in my poor little Civic’s future, too).  Contrary to what soon-to-be-revealed purchases may imply, I am not a baller, nor am I made of money.  Kyle and I are living on a single income, so it’s… Read more >

Crash and burn

My second night shift came and went without incident.  It was pretty much a dream 12 hours.  I staggered my way to the parking garage and arrived home just before 8 am to pass the car off to my better half (as in, the half that doesn’t crash the car).  Oh, did I not mention my little accident?  Twitter followers may have read the news, but for those who aren’t in the loop, I suck at driving.  Don’t worry, I’m being slightly dramatic (I’m fine).  The passenger side door, on the other hand, wasn’t so… Read more >

When the looney tunes come out

That would be the night shift. Oy.  Why do they all go crazy when the sun sets?  Why?!?  That’s my attempt at taking a picture of the full moon.  Mighty fine camera skills right thurr. As ridiculous as last night was (and trust me, it was plenty ridiculous), I made it home in one piece to curl up on the couch with a new Gossip Girl episode (finally!).  And whatdoyouknow, this post seems to be making semi-sense, too (thus far…).  Compared to Amy Winehouse, I have my sh!t together.  Yesterday started the same as any… Read more >

You put the pear in the coconut

Is it just me, or does my coffee froth look like a person running? I could be going crazy.  It’s entirely possible.  It’s actually the more likely scenario.  Still, I couldn’t help but feel like my morning coffee was sending me subliminal messages.  I ignored them and went for a bike ride instead.  It was AWESOME.  Before hitting the road, I had a bowl of oats with a chopped apple.  Don’t be deceived by the above photo, though.  This batch of oats was anything but average. I bulked up the 1/2 cup rolled oats with… Read more >
