Yoga girrrrl

I’m sure at least a few of you saw that video way back when right? It’s now the anthem I sing in my head anytime I go to yoga. Normal? Nah. [Side note: Kyle wants to meet DJ Dave in a huge way…and since he’s clearly a Santa Monica resident, I think it’s only a matter of time…I just hope I’m not with him when it happens] I started the day with a non-cereal version of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Aka toast with Earth Balance and sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top. Lovely. Since yoga was… Read more >

My 4 latest obsessions

This cd is so much FUN.  Pun intended. Iced tea.  Can’tstopwon’tstop.   After buying a big boy at le bux, I opted to brew my own at home.  And I can’t tell you how awesome it is to start my summer mornings with a nice cool drink.  Plus almond milk and maple syrup.   Heavenly.   Home-made bread. I eat these loaves faster than hummus.  And that’s saying something. This sauce.  With anything and everything.    Baked potatoes.  Eggs.  Hash browns.  Toast.  Quinoa.  Pizza.  A spoon.    You name it, I’ve tried it with this… Read more >

Professional weekending

I woke up Saturday sooo excited. a) Friends in town!  Hooray!! b) Golfing date! c) A non-work weekend!  Finally!! [Whoa exclamation points] You probably can’t tell the volume of Earth Balance in either of these photos, but since the bread was home-made it soaked it all up like a sponge.  There was probably a quarter of a cup of butter.  Pretty awesome, huh. Golfing snacks.  I only ate the apple.  9 holes later we all headed back to Santa Monica for some brunch.  Zengo was packed, but we eventually got a table for 9 (in… Read more >

Party of four

  What. A. Breakfast.  You’ve seen this before here.  I live and die by this sauce.   I had it with leftover pizza.    Some dip pizza in ranch dressing…I go for creamy cashew dijon sauce. I was planning on grocery shopping in the afternoon, but the weather was too nice to ignore.  You see, every once in a while, the coastal fog cooperates and I get gorgeousness on my days off.  Which means, beach time! Don’t let the running shoes deceive you.  This was a leisurely walk.  For a July week day, the pier… Read more >

Lactose-Free Crème Brûlée

It seems my expat sister has taken quite a liking to dairy free dessert baking.  It figures she’d develop this hobby after moving to Australia, so I can’t even sample her delicious products.  But at least I get some great recipes out of it.  Here’s the latest one, from Laura: One of the most devastating things to give up when I became lactose-intolerant several years ago (other than nachos) was crème brûlée.  Every time I saw it on a desert menu at a restaurant, I would cry a little inside .  It never occurred to… Read more >
