About Elise
I’m a nurse. An exercise lover. A whole foods connoisseur. A health enthusiast. And I have IBS. No need to cue the sappy violin music yet...
I’ve found that eating a mostly plant-based diet has allowed me to continue to live and love life to the fullest. Although moderation isn’t something I do well, I’m 100% devoted to giving my body pure, wholesome, quality food. Nutritious and delicious, all the time.
Hungry Hungry Hippie is a way for me to share my daily dealings with food, fitness, and everything in between.
This post is a few days old, but I was already so behind before heading off to Vegas for my bachelorette party that I was able to pre-schedule this post. I’ll be back from Sin City tomorrow. But don’t expect any posts from this weekend because (as we all know) what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas [and most DEFINITELY doesn’t end up on a blog]… Today, I had a trial run with my wedding hairdo. 😀 I can’t put up pics in the off chance that Kyle reads this post, but trust me, it… Read more >

Happy 4th everyone! I’m currently in Las Vegas for my bachelorette party. Keep me in your thoughts. If you want a real post, check out last year’s FOURTH of JULY post. I made an amazing black bean burger. This year, my only goal is survival.

Why oh why couldn’t I just sleep in? Sadly, I woke up before 8 am…making my total shut-eye time less than 7 hours. Far more than I used to get (back in my days of employment), but far fewer than I’ve been getting lately. My body was ready to go though, so whatever. After my first cup of coffee my mom had to go to the hospital. It was kinda last minute and she wasn’t able to drive herself, so I made another cup of java to-go and we were off. She’s ok, don’t worry,… Read more >

Our last day in New York! Monday was bittersweet, I suppose. Although, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t more eager to get back to CA. Still, it was weird knowing that this would be our last time in New York for a very very long time. Like every other morning, we made Starbucks coffee in our hotel room before heading out. For some reason I have never seen this African Kitamu blend anywhere else, but I was in love at first sip, and am now determined to get my hands on it. Has… Read more >

My parents are quite the couple aren’t they? I was so glad that they came to New York with us. Before they left on Sunday we met up for brunch at Bobby Flay’s Bar Americain. Unfortunately, the A.C. was out in the restaurant and sweating through a meal in the 90 degree heat is about as unappetizing as it gets. Instead, we made our way around the corner to The Redeye Grill. Not too shabby for a backup. I wasn’t extremely hungry, but after eating mostly bread the previous day, I knew I wanted something… Read more >
