carob chips

From 7:45 pm onwards

Another sunny day 🙂 I think spring might be here to stay, yes? My camera spazzed out, and the photo evidence of my work eats are nowhere to be found.  So all I have is dinner and dessert for ya.  Ok?  Here’s the day starting at 7:45 pm (give or take a few minutes). With the new season, comes a new chapter in Terry Walters’ cookbook.  I love Clean Food.  It’s my go-to book for ideas.  They are simple but delicious.  After the hummus heavy day I had, I definitely wanted a lighter dinner…and the… Read more >

More freckles and Vitamin D

There won’t be many pictures in this post because I was in the sun ALL. DAY. LONG.  I can’t get over it.  I took 4,601,546 pictures of cherry blossoms and dogwoods today.  Literally.  My computer nearly exploded with all the megabytes I tried to upload from my camera.  Did I just use a techie term?  Why yes I did.  There’s hope yet.  Anyways, here’s how I started the day – whole wheat sando thin with Justin’s maple almond butter and banana slices (along with unpictured javahhhh). I had a bushel of apples while taking the city… Read more >

Like a carry-out

*Post’s title courtesy of my lover, JT (and due to the fact that I ate several meals out this weekend). Apparently I just can’t get my blogging self together on the weekends (or when the weather is nice).  Sooo, Happy (belated) Easter!  And now for a quickie recap of the last couple of days… Saturday The AM can be summarized pretty briefly:  Starbucks, shopping, more shopping, and (finally) lunch at home. So far all the Gardein products I have tried have been fresh (not frozen) ones, so making the meat-free buffalo wings was my first… Read more >

No Foolin’

Did anyone play a joke today?  Or fall for someone else’s April Fools?  I was forwarded this by a few people (who know of my love for the ‘Bucks), and I definitely fell for it at first.  HA!  Anyways, I don’t feel like posting today, so I’ll just give you my breakfast and the recipe from the falafel I made the other day. I toasted a plain H&H bagel then added a mountain of Earth Balance (the green one that’s soy free) and carob chips.  Decadent for so early in the day, huh?  What can… Read more >

Goodbye and goodluck

First coffee, then we’ll chat. OK.  I know I’ve been withholding my big news for a while now, but the time has come to spill the beans. For many of you, this won’t come a surprise, but Kyle and I have been trying to make our way back to the West Coast for a while now.  Obviously, with the economy on the fritz, and both of us having great jobs here in NYC, heading back home to CA isn’t going to be the smoothest transition.  However.  As I have talked about ad nauseum in the… Read more >
