As you all know by now, Sabra courses through my veins like no other. So you can imagine how excited I was last week to find out that THIS was going down on Sunday. Sabra “transformed” Union Square into a Mediterranean Cafe…with samples upon samples upon samples of hummus! Are you there God, it’s me Elise hummus queen? K, if this isn’t reason enough to visit, I don’t think there’s anything more I can offer you? Here I am with one of my 6 free samples of classic hummus and Stacy’s pita chips. They also… Read more >

Sadly Saturday was not a sleep in day. We had to get things moving bright and early, so clearly a sunrise java run was in the cards. After meeting with our (now confirmed) wedding photographer we hit up the 23rd St/7th Ave Whole Foods. It was only 11, but Kyle signed us BOTH up for a joint training session with his trainer at 2 pm and I needed to give my tummy digesting time. Whole Foods’ Mediterranean hot bar was calling to me in a MAYJ way! Oh how I love falafel! I had the… Read more >

Finally a day off of work [insert sigh of relief]! And a Friday to boot (what an odd phrase). Today was soopah busy and I was playing catch up all day long. Naturally, I fueled myself with a large dose of caffeine to get my butt moving. I got 99 problems errands but a meal ‘aint one. After my first round of rain-filled errands my tummy was begging for more fruit. You ask and you shall receive! Later, I was craving the most bizarre (read highly processed) things for lunch. Bacon and cheese? Errr…not quite. … Read more >

Yes! About 4 days behind. I showed you all my eats throughout the day, but no dinners. So, I guess I have some blogging to do, huh? But before I get to that, thank you all SO much for your kind comments about my past few days at work. I was a little nervous about writing a more emotional post about my job (and not food), but the comments that flooded after proved I had nothing to worry about. So thank you thank you thank you 🙂 Moving on. Guess what today is!?! Give up?… Read more >

I’m exhausted with a capital “E” after the last 3 days of work I’ve had. I shouldn’t complain since I had 4 days off in a row while my sister was visiting, but man was it difficult to go back to such a chaotic scene. Tuesday’s shift whizzed by so fast I was playing catch up for 12 hours straight (the unit was good busy, not shoot-myself-in-the-head busy), on Wednesday I cried (more on THAT later…), and Thursday I was called to the ICU to cover a patient who had taken a turn for the… Read more >
