I’m not sure why it’s a challenge…since I heart salads, and welcome all motivation to get creative in the mixed greens department. But hey, I’m not one to turn down something I can obviously succeed at a challenge. Back to the b-fast eats. A pile of toast with some Smart Balance light. Note the pre-photo nibbled corner. 😉 I need to go shopping, after living on live sprouted bread (ie Ezekiel, Alvarado street, etc) for so long, the regular whole wheat stuff just doesn’t cut it… Other AM yummies: vanilla soy yog and chai… Read more >

Finally, a day off of work…time to get the apartment set up! After I got back from errands, I made a big lunch. A pseudo BLT (soy bacon, spinach, and hummus)…ok, so it was a BLH. I used Lightlife soy bacon and Sabra hummus (obvi) on my fave, Alvarado street bread. Looks delish, huh!!! I cleaned the apartment while snacking chowing down some dried fruit. I was a bit of a slacker, and really wasn’t feeling the gym, but I dragged myself there (my goal is to not come in last in April’s half marathon). … Read more >

I just couldn’t pack it all into one post (it was getting obscene). So now I’m trying to pick out the very best of the best to share. Athenos hummus is G-O-O-D, good! Hummus and avocado = that’s AMORE! NOM NOM. As for wedding and late night partying…most of those pics are too R rated for blogging 😉 Here are a few, though. The fam (L to R: youngest sis, middle sis, dad, mom, me) The girlies (above AND below). Hooray for LA-LA-land friends!! I tried to hit up all my fave… Read more >

I apologize for being away (I missed you all, even if you didn’t notice I was gone, haha). These past few days have been insane. I can’t even begin to try to condense it into a blog-worthy Cliff’s notes version. So… (a) I was working a LOT – gotta get the cash flow to pay those billz, yo! (b) A patient stroked out RIGHT before I was supposed to head out on my lunch break (the blogger meet up, no less) – ahhhhhh! I hate to say which part of that last sentence disappointed me… Read more >

I guess the cold weather is back? At least the weekend was nice, but talk about short lived. Good morning blog-loves! I’m in an especially great mood this morning because I (again) was called late last night by my work to get the day off. I still get paid, but because they were overstaffed, I don’t have to go in. I don’t know if this is something to be worried about, though, since 2 other NY hospitals recently went under, and we really haven’t had too many cases lately. And we all know our economy… Read more >
