The last post was actually written on Friday but I was unable to post it because my internet connection was failing and my battery died. I had work all day at the bakery on Saturday, so I’m trying to play catchup with my post. Friday Post: I’m not sure how, but I woke up this [...]
I’m not sure what my deal is but I am having the HARDEST time focusing on my exam. I think it is a combination of uninteresting material and the thoughts of finishing school looming in my head. I have been doing work at a snail’s pace, finding things to distract me left and right. Initially, [...]
It’s official. I am in a breakfast rut. My oat comeback yesterday must have been a fake out because this morning I was craving a green monster and granola. I wasn’t planning on having ANOTHER smoothie this morning, but when cravings call I answer. This is possibly the most uninteresting breakfast to photograph, and I [...]
Today was a day filled with inspiration. At yoga, the instructor’s mother recently passed away and she spent the class reflecting on the way she reacts to difficult situations. She recognized that during tough times she has certain habits that she falls into, and she is able to recognize them and let them be. She [...]
Mediterranean style dishes are among my favorites to eat during the summer months. I love the fresh flavors and the lightness of olive oil and fresh herbs in dishes. On of my favorite cold salads that my mom makes all summer long is Ina Garten’s Shrimp and Orzo Salad, full of fresh flavors like dill, [...]
After lunch today, I professed my love to my panini maker. Trust me, if you had this grilled vegetable, goat cheese and hummus wrap for lunch you wouldn’t think it was odd to talk to a kitchen appliance either. Last night I tossed baby eggplant, red bell pepper, portabella mushroom strips and asparagus in olive [...]
My friends, I am sad to report that late Easter night, Mr. Chocolate Almond Bunny lost his head. He put up a good fight, but my strength cannot be matched and I ultimately pried him from his cute little package and did some damage. My mom reminded me today that when I was a little [...]
The beauty of home: pure comfort. I went to dinner with my parents tonight at The Bonefish Grill. I am a fish girl. Whenever we go out to dinner, I am notorious for ordering fish every time. Fish is always a treat when I go to restaurants. I cook salmon and tilapia at home because [...]
I’m about to take off, but like a good food blogger, I thought I would post one last time. I’ll try to keep up over break, but might not have time while I’m in NYC. First of all, a follow-up from my blog last night some CHOCOLATE EVIDENCE: My roommate and I have the messiest [...]
Every night after dinner a signal in my brain goes off that automatically starts contemplating what will be for dessert. I swear, I can’t remember the last time I DIDN’T end my night with something sweet. I realized tonight that I have a bit of a chocolate obsession. Well “a bit” is an understatement. I [...]
