Cut your losses

At some point I guess you just have to accept that you can’t catch up.  For me, that day is today.  Rather than go back to where I last left off (Friday’s eats), I am skipping ahead to the weekend’s eats.  Trust me, you aren’t missing anything too epic…hummus and fruit, no doubt. You know what a packed lunch means… Work weekend 🙁 The snack deets: green monster superfood odwalla bar, peanut toffee buzz clif bar (holy EFFING yum – is this a new flavor, or have i just found the light?), the last of… Read more >

International eats

For the record, this is Thursday’s food (behind much?)…so forgive me if this is brief.  My recollection of the day’s happs is a bit foggy. Nothing too complicated about this.  Coffee with mega froth. I broke the fast with fresh melon and blueberry Chobz.  Fruity, no? Pretty sure I gymed it up after breks.  Nothing like working up a sweat to Little Miss Narcissism (aka She by Sheree).  Seriously, WHO gets a life size portrait of their own bust?  Those ATL b!tches will never cease to amaze me…  I wanted some good old fashioned comfort… Read more >

Fall colored food

I didn’t even realize how ridiculously orange my meals were, until I uploaded all the pictures…holy naranja!  I woke up fairly early for my day off, which allowed time for serious AM chowing.  This mug vat of coffee had froth up the yin-yang (just the way I like it).  I also toasted an English muffin and caked on the Smart Balance light.  Puddles of butter normally skeeve me out, but for some reason I craved it today. Throughout the morning I read blogs and snacked on lots of fruit.  Gotta enjoy the (dwindling) sweet part… Read more >

Sore and more with chickpeas

I have been a slacker!  Rather than let these photos cause my 900th computer crash fall by the wayside, how about we play a quick little game of catch (up)? Last week, vital wheat gluten met my bestie, the chickpea. I went with the tried and true (recipe from V’con) for chickpea seitan cutlets.  Can cookbooks win Pulitzers?  So simple, so genius.  I barely let them cool before taste testing them out on a piece of bread (and subsequently losing a layer of skin on the roof of my mouth).  Yum yum. The magic bullet… Read more >

Awww, shucks guys

My oh my!  You kids certainly know how to make a girl blush.  Thanks so much for all the flattering and totally unsolicited slightly invited compliments about my race – kidding!!  😉 I really enjoyed writing about the emotional side of this race.  Often times, it seems like the physical side of racing gets the spotlight, and I thought the mental aspect should take the forefront for a change.  For me, this is actually the more difficult part of running long distances, and something I am still working on (as evidenced by yesterday’s struggles). Anyways.  After… Read more >
