I’m not sure what came over me today, but I decided I needed to make Medjool Date and Walnut Bread.Spinach, Roasted Sweet Potato, Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Tomato, Carrot, Hummus and an Apple. I had a light late lunch as this puppy baked. The smell of cinnamon was getting to me. I needed food.It took all [...]
Now that’s what I call oatmeal! I got a little overzealous making breakfast this morning. I was afraid that my bowl wouldn’t hold the contents of the sauce pan I cooked them in. This bowl was huge! It looked like a big pumpkin pool, and I was more than happy to dive right in. 1/2 [...]
I have this thing. Whenever I see unusual food items I MUST try them. I have yet to try a cuisine that completely repulses me, and will give any food a chance. This curiosity has helped me discover some of my favorite foods. Escargot is a new favorite that I sometimes dream about. Who would [...]
Where did the day go? When I finally sat down to dinner at 8pm, I felt like I had nothing to show for my day. I went for a half-hour run and did a few errands, but the majority of the “apartment cleaning” remains. I guess I have all day tomorrow, THANK GOODNESS! Needless to [...]

Ladies and gentleman, at 4pm this afternoon I emerged from the confines of my minuscule apartment looking half-human and walked to campus to hand in my last college paper ever.

I wasn’t planning on writing another post today, but I ate some food that HAD to be written about. First up Dr. Kracker Klassic 3 Seed Snackers. I mean, just look at them. These satisfied every crunchy, carby, nutty craving I was having. Where have these been my whole life? I had a serving of [...]
Apparently I have an over packing problem. I struggle to close sandwiches, wraps and omelets in the same way that I struggle with my suit case every time I travel. This morning I woke up and decided it was an egg day. The sky was dark and a misty rain was present in the cold [...]
BREAKING NEWS: OATS ARE OFFICIALLY BACK IN MY LIFE! I was starting to get nervous that my ugly green monster/granola bowls were becoming my new breakfast of choice. I have been choosing alternative breakfast options for nearly a week, but alas, loaded oatmeal always wins. I even pumped it up a bit more with ground [...]
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.
