This Monday was especially painful because the sun was radiating into my patients’ rooms all day long. It was heavenly, but I was stuck in the hospital. So it was agonizingly beautiful. Such a tease! At least I had good food to enjoy on my lunch break… Bars, apples, baggies, tupperware. Fabulous. In the tupp: spinach, seaweed salad, carrots, broccoli, and pepitas. To the people who asked, I sometimes make my own seaweed salad, but this one was store bought (you can see a different salad of the same brand here). Occasionally they have them… Read more >

Please disregard how delayed my posting is…as this post is clearly from last Friday. What can I say, this weekend was a crazy one! Festival ‘o Lights started today…oh the things I know from living in NYC working in a Jewish Hospital. Why are there so many ways to spell Hanukkah? Very confusing religion. Shocker of all shockers. I passed up my usual dose of caffeine this morning and instead opted for a huge cuppa cocoa. I’m getting to be a bit obsessed with this beverage. I’m not sure if it’s because Christmas time and… Read more >

J’adore all the recent commenters! Keep delurking peeps, it’s great hear from ya :) My love cup is full (yes, I just quoted Vicki, cringe). After the (above) overflowing frothy cuppa java, I was at a serious crossroads. I wanted more caffeine, but I also wanted chocolate. Such a dilemma! Solution: MOCHA! I combined coffee, Chatfield’s cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and agave nectar. It was heavenly. I mistakenly took a sip before taking a photo (which was only a mistake because it was SO dang good that half the cup was in my tummy… Read more >

I can hardly keep my eyes open. Red-eye flights kinda suck, huh. But I guess all flights kinda suck. No matta, I’m back in the NYCizzle. I miss home already, but look at all the goodies I came home to!!! Let birthday week begin!! The first package was full of Averie’s raw vegan macaroons and donut holes, which smelled SO dang heavenly, I waited all of 5 seconds before digging into them. Oh, wow. I’m pretty jealous of her taste tester daughter – someone get this girl her own bakery. The macaroons were coconutty and… Read more >

I don’t have an iPhone, but if I did, I know I would be obsessed with all those fun little apps. If only there were one that could help me decide what I wanna eat! Sometimes I can’t for the life of me figure out what I’m in the mood for. Do you ever have this problem? This morning I stared into the fridge for a solid 5 minutes, then went to the pantry, then back to the fridge again…and I still came up with NADA. I didn’t feel like anything sweet or savory, and… Read more >
