A FODMAPs friendly “what I ate” day

Breakfast Udi’s mighty bagel with organic peanut butter and a fried egg.  I had the second half of the bagel a couple hours later.  Also with PB PB. I’m seriously obsessed with these bagels.  They are so hearty and full of seeds and whole grains, you’d never know they are wheat and gluten free.  Definitely the best GF baked good I’ve tried so far.  What sets it apart though, is the fact that it actually tastes like a bagel.  Not eggy bread.  Not nutrient devoid buns.  Not cardboard crap.  Real ingredients!  I can SEE the… Read more >

You know what my LEAST favorite part about blogging is?  Thinking of post titles.  Seriously, I am depleted.  After 4+ or whatever years it seems like there’s nothing left.  So I always wait ‘til the end and then I sit there, waiting to hit publish, while I stare at “enter a post title” on the top of the page.  Most of the time I go one of two routes – either super cheesy (like really lame puns) or super boring (like the name of a recipe).  It’s a miracle if it’s remotely clever.  But hopefully… Read more >

Philly: Red eye

I’m getting too old to do red eye flights.  That’s what I decided after this weekend.  I thought it would be like working night shift, but it’s not.  The combo of the time change and being confined to a middle seat – yikes.  Not for me. So as you can imagine, we didn’t exactly hit the ground running.  My parents’ flight arrived before ours, so they were waiting for us when we finally touched down at 6 am. We cabbed it over to the hotel to drop off our bags, but since it was way… Read more >
