Overdose alert!! I kinda went crazy with the naranjas today (fyi that’s oranges in Spanish). So now that I’ve fulfilled Elise’s daily cultural lesson for all you non-espanol-ers out there, I’ll continue on with today’s post. Gringo, much? I made this one with soymilk, but I am SO excited to go shopping today for a new non-milk milk. Can I just say how amazing this blogging community is?!? Seriously, I have a question, and I turn to you all, and voila, answer! So a HUGE thanks for all your suggestions! Seriously, you guys rock…. 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 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 >

You may notice something different about the start to my day…no coffee?!? Kyle and I were trying hard to stomach the rest of the bag of our most recent Starbucks blend (extra bold Gold Coast)…but there is a time and place for being green. And suffering through bad coffee is NOT a compromise I’m willing to make. We got this bag a few days ago, and neither of us have been finishing our AM java since, so what’s the point? Instead of feeling guilty over wasted grounds, I opted for a warm cup of tea… Read more >
