The brown version

Can you tell I’ve been behind on my reviews? Last time I enlisted the help from my fam in consuming Nature’s Pride Country White bun.  Now it’s time for the brown buns. The 100% Whole Wheat ones, that is! Like last time, I have Foodbuzz to thank for these goodies.  And also like last time, I have my fam-bam to thank for the help in reviewing. The table was set with all the necessary accessories (BBQ sauce, dijon mustard, ketchup, tomatoes, and of course avocado) There was some confusion at the store, and I couldn’t… Read more >

How ‘bout them apples?

Apple-a-holics anonymous meetings should not be held anywhere near Washington. They should be held far far away. I’ve been quite the produce whore lover up here in the Evergreen State…but rather than list off each fruit and vegetable like I’m talking to my niece…how about a photo montage?  Yes?  Ok.   And then there were veggies… Can it please stay summer forever?  I want to live off of this seasonal produce forever!

Buns of steel

Since I’m babysitting today, here’s a post with last week’s food that I have been meaning to get up for a while.  Enjoy! A while ago Foodbuzz hooked it up.  I received three kinds of Nature’s Pride buns to test out, and my family was on board to help. Fluffy carbs 🙂 Here’ are the stats: And here’s how they were consumed: Meal #1 Dr. Praeger’s veggie burger on Nature’s Pride Country White bun with avocado and tomato [half a baked potato with Soy-Sation cheese on top]. Meal #2 Repeat. Meal #3 (Dad’s) double down… Read more >

Peas and Andrea

Reasons I love Portland: 1. Starbucks 2. Gardens and greenery galore 3.  Peas and Andrea! Obviously this was the highlight of my visit to Portland (aka the only reason we stopped on our drive up to Kyle’s parents’ house in WA). You see, these ladies hold a very special place in my heart.  Care to Eat was actually the VERY FIRST food blog I read.  I fell in love with Erin and Andrea after just one post.  And then once I discovered the (since dissolved) blog of the sarcastic and witty Mama Pea, I knew… Read more >

Dinner in P-town

After a full day of driving (11 hours to be exact), Kyle and I arrived at our hotel in downtown Portland just after 5 pm.  He was ready to pass out, but I wasn’t going down without a fight workout and vegan meal in me first. I dragged (to the fullest sense of the word) my poor fiancé to the hotel gym for a measly 20 minutes on the elliptical.  It wasn’t all bad, though.  Thanks to the Ts in every corner of the workout area, we were able to enjoy the Spain vs. Germany… Read more >
