For the record, this is Thursday’s food (behind much?)…so forgive me if this is brief. My recollection of the day’s happs is a bit foggy. Nothing too complicated about this. Coffee with mega froth. I broke the fast with fresh melon and blueberry Chobz. Fruity, no? Pretty sure I gymed it up after breks. Nothing like working up a sweat to Little Miss Narcissism (aka She by Sheree). Seriously, WHO gets a life size portrait of their own bust? Those ATL b!tches will never cease to amaze me… I wanted some good old fashioned comfort… Read more >

I hereby dedicate this post to everyone who has de-lurked lately. I LOVE hearing from you all, and it makes me so happy to know that you get ideas from my blog. That said, several peeps have been asking for tips on packing lunches. Well, I aim to please, so here’s a post packed with some of my latest eats that I have brought to work. Lord knows, it’s hard to prep for 12 hour shifts, especially when you have no clue when (or IF) you will get breaks to eat. So, I do rely… Read more >

Question: In the current economy, how do you avoid associating food with $? I can’t help but feel like NOT finishing my meal is the exact same thing as wasting money. Like, unless I polish off my plate, I’m basically throwing my hard earned cash down the drain. Jillian once mentioned she had this problem, but her solution wasn’t realistic in my opinion. I’m not talking about portions served to me while dining out. In my opinion, going to nice restaurants is a luxury and is all about the experience (so the high(er) prices are… Read more >

No need to send out the search dogs, I’m alive and well. In the last few days I’ve been hanging out with with my sis and working. I worked the past two days, and Laura left to return to CA today (tear). In the interest of just getting up to date, I’ll limit Tues through Thurs to the very upmost blog-worthy parts. Not that everything I write isn’t thrilling… Me + Laura + WF lunch + central park = happy day The sun was BLAZING, so the photos were all soopah bright. In case your… Read more >

Sadly Saturday was not a sleep in day. We had to get things moving bright and early, so clearly a sunrise java run was in the cards. After meeting with our (now confirmed) wedding photographer we hit up the 23rd St/7th Ave Whole Foods. It was only 11, but Kyle signed us BOTH up for a joint training session with his trainer at 2 pm and I needed to give my tummy digesting time. Whole Foods’ Mediterranean hot bar was calling to me in a MAYJ way! Oh how I love falafel! I had the… Read more >
