cleaning out the fridge

Peace out real world! I only have this last week of work and then we are off to Europe!! I am so excited, I will hardly be able to focus at work…I packed my lunch the night before: apple, odwalla bar (superfood flavor), raisins, and a big ‘ol sandwich.I’m trying to use up the last of things in the fridge before we go, which means I’m getting creative in my sandwich choices. Broccoli slaw (in lieu of lettuce), ff greek yogurt and mustard with smart deli “turkey” …and then more mustard (in an attempt to… Read more >

out on the town

Time for a new starbucks coffee blend – flavor flave!!! Today was my first taste of the serena organic blend. Quite good.Swirly froth that I enjoyed while watching an old episode of the view (yeah tivo). After 2 cups Uncle Matt called and we decided to meet up at Battery Park for the boat cruise to Liberty Island. I took the subway downtown to Chambers and walked the rest of the way along the water. I thought it was a good idea, but when I got west enough, I quickly realized the wind had a… Read more >

a day of waiting…

It’s an apple!!! Wow, I am talented! I have been practicing on my frothing technique, and this is the first design that really looks cool šŸ™‚ I used mostly skim plus (1/3 cup) with just a touch of vanilla “creamer.” Today started off with a nice snooze. No complaints there. After yesterday’s neverending shift, I didn’t feel the least bit guilty for sleeping in. After my coffee (a new blend from starbucks…more details later) I hit up the gym and ran for 60 minutes. I was feeling really pumped since I took yesterday off from… Read more >

i hate prop 8

My last day of work for the week could not have arrived sooner – no joke, I was exhausted and my entire body was aching like a 90 year old geriatrics patient. I think I will need monthly massages just to keep myself walking! Anyways, the day started off bright and early with a Bruno’s coffee…which actually didn’t keep me alert enough at ALL. I was forced to do some non-vegan snacking just so I didn’t keel over at work. I’m not proud of what I did, but sometimes my stomach takes over…I stole a… Read more >

vote vote vote (get out the VOTE)

Monday. Blah. After such a nice, relaxing weekend with my parents in town, the fact that I had to go back to work was a harsh reality. At least I was working with my lovely Miranda. I started off the day with a Bruno’s coffee, which was as good as ever. Since, it was just the 2 of us with a full load, I only managed to squeeze in 45 minutes for lunch. Still…I had my typical sando (A Street, smart deli, lettuce, hummus, etc) which I packed the day before.I also had a baggie… Read more >
