Remember how I don’t keep multiple desserts in the house at once? I lied. I have become a treat-seeking-night-shift-nurse-who-demands-sugar-as-a-reward-on-her-days-off. That’s a thing in case you didn’t know. I’m sure there’s a DSM-V diagnosis somewhere in there if you look hard enough. Food as a reward, huh. Not a good plan Elise. Psychiatrists avert your eyes. So about these guys. They’re healthy. Ish. I suppose the fact that I made them just because I had an itch to eat something sweet tells you the most important thing: they’re sweet. Beyond that, though, they’re not… Read more >

I am bad about taking pics of my daily eats (like I used to) but I get requests for them more than the “real” recipes…so here are bunch of the quickie things I throw together on the regular. From last week… Millet with sautéed spinach, baked tofu & avocado I made the millet in the rice cooker, sautéed the spinach with sesame oil and tamari, and used Wildwood tofu. I made extras. I also re-made this salmon pasta, but in a HUUUUGE vat. Lots of veggies to use up? Throw them in! I… Read more >

Holy crap I actually took pictures of everything I ate in a 24 hour period! I can’t believe I used to do this every single day… Starting with breakfast. I slept in til 9 but if I didn’t have a child I would have hidden under the sheets until at least noon. I was still recovering from night shift shenanigans and pacman wasn’t pleased. Given that, both of our appetites were out of control. I fed him first of course, but then got right to work on my own grub. I wanted pancakes, but… Read more >

Saturday and Sunday were weekend warrior status for me (boo). I work every 3rd weekend at the hospital which is a nice change from my previous jobs that were every other. I guess that’s one of the big differences between full time and part time. But it was still a bummer since the rest of the world had long weekend. Anyway, my holiday pay started at midnight on Sunday (I think?) so even though I didn’t work on Monday I still got a little somethin somethin for ruining my 3 day off getaway potential. … Read more >

Uhhh yeah, long name, I know. But I actually held back because they could have been called a million other things…like lovely gooey bites…or gluten free breakfast squares…or deliciously sweet snack bars…you get the idea, right? I have a lot of photos of P man-handling these candies because they’ve been on the counter (hashtag dangerous) for a while now. He loves playing with the bag because it makes noise and his pudgy little fingers can perfectly grasp and shake it. And yet, we all know how bad terrible of an idea it… Read more >
