As I mentioned yesterday, we left bright and early (6:30 to be exact) to head back to LA. And as painful as it was to get up at 5 to work out before hitting the road, it turned out to be WELL WORTH it. That’s the scene we avoided (source). The grapevine was snowing the entire time we were driving through, and just after we made it out, highway patrol blocked it off. Our friends were just a couple of hours behind us and had to be re-routed to the 101. And they were the… Read more >

Breakfast #1 – awkwardly photographed home-made trail mix of raw almonds, raisins, carob chips, cheerios, and Three Sisters cinnamon sweets. Eaten while Kyle drove me to work at 6:20. Breakfast #2 – quinoa, shredded coconut, chopped apple, goji berries and dried cranberries. Eaten between grand rounds at 10ish. I have discovered a new way to eat quinoa that makes for an amazing breakfast…allow me to share with you. First, I add soy milk to it. I fill it to the top like I’m adding milk to a cold cereal. Then, I microwave it for a… Read more >

Dude. I can’t even begin to describe the past 18 hours. I had a really rough day. I was going a mile a minute from the second my shift started…and the first time I looked at the clock I was shocked. Already 11:20!?! Uhhhh…what!? How could this be? Because my job is time dependent (meds, blood draws, etc. all require a strict schedule) it’s rare that I’m not aware of the time. Today, however, I never had a moment of rest. Not even a millisecond. I was definitely behind for most of the day…perpetually trying… Read more >

In case you want a visual image with the post title, as you say it picture me snapping my fingers across my body with some serious sass. And now roll your eyes. Ah well, we can’t all be divas. Nonetheless, my week’s work eats have been nothing short of amazing. From drab… To fab. 🙂 On top of the quinoa, I chopped up the fattest pear I’ve ever seen (I’m not even exaggerating, it was a beastly looking fruit), and then some crushed cashews. Not just plain cashews though. I put them in a baggy,… Read more >

Clean eats with minimalist descriptions. Ready, set, blog. Pumpkin Pie smoothie Toast with “cream cheese” and cinnamon. I have mixed feelings about Tofutti cream cheese. It’s got an odd saltiness to it that can sometimes make for an unexpected flavor, but it’s great for subbing into pasta dishes. It does melt when it meets warm bread, which is a win in my book. 🙂 Self explanatory addiction. Ditto to the above. Avocado + pea mash up It’s not easy being green…when avocado is involved. On toasted sprouted bread. My night shift work eats… Read more >
