As you all know by now, Sabra courses through my veins like no other. So you can imagine how excited I was last week to find out that THIS was going down on Sunday. Sabra “transformed” Union Square into a Mediterranean Cafe…with samples upon samples upon samples of hummus! Are you there God, it’s me Elise hummus queen? K, if this isn’t reason enough to visit, I don’t think there’s anything more I can offer you? Here I am with one of my 6 free samples of classic hummus and Stacy’s pita chips. They also… Read more >

Yes! About 4 days behind. I showed you all my eats throughout the day, but no dinners. So, I guess I have some blogging to do, huh? But before I get to that, thank you all SO much for your kind comments about my past few days at work. I was a little nervous about writing a more emotional post about my job (and not food), but the comments that flooded after proved I had nothing to worry about. So thank you thank you thank you 🙂 Moving on. Guess what today is!?! Give up?… Read more >

I woke up at 6:50 am today. FYI, my shift starts 7. Uh. Oops? After having a mini-stroke, I got my butt in gear and hauled ass to work. If there’s ONE THING you should know about me, it is this: I HATE CHAOS. Odd, given my job right? To be honest, I feel like it is actually this quality of my personality that’s one of the reasons I thrive in the ICU. I think the constant drive to create order and stability works to my advantage in such an intense setting. And yet, in… Read more >

Are you scared of the title? Haha…don’t worry, I haven’t gone quite that hummus crazy (yet!). But I did bake a batch of falafel today, which looked pretty damn similar to (how I would picture) chickpea pastries. But before I went to town in the kitch, I got my breks-face on. Coffee. Froth. Bluebeezies. Chobani. I heart my antioxidants and Chobz knows how to do it right. The store has been running on empty in the greek yogurt department, so I finally was able to re-stock. I actually went to the grocery store at 9… Read more >

Wanna see how my Maui meals have been going…well, I have about 4.7% of my eats captured on film, so I’ll let you be the judge of that. We eat at restaurants more often than not, so I am in serious need of a detox. Processed foods have been in abundance, despite my best attempts to minimize them. And even with mega planning ahead of time, vegan options tend to be poor at best. One of the things I realized here is how unavoidable processed foods is. Sad :( Even with my organic-loving, health-conscious, family,… Read more >
