Overnight success

Such a productive day!  First and foremost, I set up a job interview (hooray!), so…yeah.  There’s that.  But in addition to my latest career progress, I tackled more things on my to-do list and ate some amazing meals. The night before bed I threw together a tupperware full of overnight oats.  I know I’ve mentioned it before, but I do like my oats raw.  When I was young I ate Quaker’s packets with milk like cold cereal.  I guess today’s overnight oats are just the more nutritious version… I wonder how long 2 1/2 pounds… Read more >

Krav Magic

I went to bed sooo late last night because I was waiting for Kyle to finish his homework (yes, he has homework).  Too bad for me that didn’t end up being until 1 am.  I wasn’t too concerned because, hey, it’s not like I have a job or anything.  But instead of sleeping in and regaining those lost hours, I was up and at ‘em at 7:30.  😡 6 hours of sleep?  Meh.  Not bad, but not a routine I want to roll with all the time.  The early rise and shine did give me… Read more >

Sprout salad

First things first, the randomly chosen Zevia giveaway winner is… #59 – Danielle When we were little kids, my cousin and I used to think it was hysterical to put fake ice cubes (the ones with the spiders inside) in people’s glasses of soda! Thanks for the giveaway – I’d love to try Zevia! Congrats Danielle!  Email me your address and I’ll get the soda sent to you asap! I have another great giveaway tomorrow too (or maybe tonight if I can get my act together), so if you didn’t hit the jackpot this time, there’s… Read more >

Social Light

This weekend was a reminder of why Kyle and I moved back to the West Coast.  No offense NYC, but when it comes to the weather and the social scene, California is where the party’s at!  I may be well out of college, but that doesn’t mean I’m an old fart (yet).  This weekend I was drawn to keg parties and tailgates like a moth to a flame.  I don’t mind a seedy bar once in a while either. But before I get to the brew-fueled festivities, let me back up to Friday. You like… Read more >

Did I mention I’m unemployed?

Kyle and I just left Santa Monica and are on our way to Nor Cal now (where our wedding is) to iron out all the dirty last minute details.  Can you even believe it’s under a week ‘til I become a Mrs.!?! Wow.  It still hasn’t really hit me. I’m several days behind in my posts and something tells me I won’t have much time to play catch up this week…so maybe I’ll get a few mini-posts up to show you what Kyle and I have been up to. [times a zillion] If you follow… Read more >
