What a weekend. It all started with a Friday wedding. Ok, actually it all started with a really awesome breakfast. Oats topped in a perfectly fried egg and avocado. Kyle came home from work early, so I got to eat lunch with him, which was a nice change in routine. I had Amy’s golden lentil soup. It was stellar! I have already gone to the store to get another can, that’s how much I loved it. I think this is now the best Amy’s soup I’ve ever tried. On the side I had carrots… Read more >

After a week of saving money on home-cooked meals a la plan, I opted to splurge for the weekend. Lazy me. I was working though, so it was my treat. I snacked on chex and chocolate crunchfuls. The crunchfuls are made with pea protein. I got them in a sample pack a long time ago. I reviewed the plain ones here. The chocolate ones are better but still have a definite pea flavor going on. I could get used to it (and didn’t really mind it that much), but if you’re looking for a… Read more >

I made a comment last week to Kyle about how the 4th of July and watermelon always make me think of Pollyanna. He didn’t really respond and then a few minutes later mentioned he didn’t know who or what I was talking about. When I said it was a movie, he claimed he’d never seen it. [What!?!?] Growing up, Pollyanna was pretty high in the rotation at our household. Along with The Sound of Music, Mary Poppins, The Music Man, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, The King and I, and Fiddler on the Roof. So now… Read more >

Our days of mid-week play are over. Kyle started his new job this week, and it’s probably almost as sad for him as it is for me. I loved having him around on my days off. A lot of the time he was working from home, but I’d still rather sit across from him in silence than have him gone at the office all day. Oh well. School is done. Now we are grown ups, I guess. On our last day together (a Saturday), we slept in, lazed in the backyard sun, and then went… Read more >

Despite the fact that I had to leave the party early because I was working night shift (a situation made even more depressing due to the fact that I missed a call to get the day off because the hospital was overstaffed), I still had a nice day. With friends and food and outdoor fun. I had an Amy’s California veggie burger on a toasted bun (Bristol Farms) with guacamole, mustard, lettuce, and tomato. Deeeelish. This meal actually prompted a week long series, in which I ate burgers and sandwiches for every lunch… Read more >
