Labor Day weekend

Saturday and Sunday were weekend warrior status for me (boo).  I work every 3rd weekend at the hospital which is a nice change from my previous jobs that were every other.  I guess that’s one of the big differences between full time and part time.  But it was still a bummer since the rest of the world had long weekend. Anyway, my holiday pay started at midnight on Sunday (I think?) so even though I didn’t work on Monday I still got a little somethin somethin for ruining my 3 day off getaway potential.  … Read more >

San Fran-iversary weekend

I realize this post is hardly timely.  We didn’t get back from the city until Monday evening and then I worked two nights in a row though…sooo…what can you do?  Truthfully, my weekend recaps are my own selfish way of documenting our memories forever and ever.  If others enjoy them, great!    So let’s back track to Saturday.  I was recovering from a few night shifts so we kept the day mellow.  I ate at odd times and didn’t get close to capturing everything I ate on film.  Did you know sleep deprivation can make… Read more >

Happy couple & happy goats weekend

Another weekend filled with outings and travel and showing off our little man!   Starting with a leisurely Friday. Since I finally polished off the last of the millionth loaf of banana bread I made, I decided to bake a new somethin’ somethin’.  More on the above [oatmeal caramel creation] later…   This is my new favorite meal.  It’s been on repeat, so don’t be surprised if you keep on seeing it. That’s an egg/avo combo on toasted Essential Baking Co bread with a side of veggies (tomatoes from my garden).   Look I finally… Read more >

What I Ate…T/W

My Tuesday and Wednesday.  For your viewing pleasure. Breakfast.  Banana bread + fried egg.  Decaf, decaf, decaf. Lunch.  Celery, carrots, zucchini egg muffins with fresh grind peanut butter. After Kyle woke up I went for a short jog around the ‘hood and then we headed downtown for fro-yo. Snack.  Cultive mix of banana & white chocolate fro-yo topped with slivered almonds, shredded coconut, blueberries, and raspberries. Dinner.  Thai Peanut Zucchini Noodle Fry. Check out the squash from my coworkers’ garden!  I also scored some medjool dates and oranges from her.  The cherry tomatoes are from… Read more >

Sharing meals with my munchkin

I worked nights this weekend and only got 2 hours of sleep while home during the day, so I make no promises on the clarity or content that follows… I have no idea when I made or ate this lunch bowl.  I don’t even know what day it is. It had Beyond Meat southwest strips, carrots, and avocado.  A really simple chop salad – if you can even call it that!  I’m still loving Beyond Meat.  The southwest flavor isn’t too strong (I was worried it would only be good for a Mexican themed meal,… Read more >
