I’ve seen this game going around, and since I’m a fan of such activities, I’m going to give it a go too! A is for Apple, what’s your favorite variety? Galaaaaa. Can’t you tell by their unwavering presence in my daily eats? I have two a day minimum. My record is over a dozen in one day. Just as between meal snacks, mind you. Yes, I like apples. A. Lot. B is for Bread, regardless of nutrition, calories, or whole grains what is your favorite type to have a nice big piece of? Well, whole… Read more >

As promised, here comes the Euro flashback series…out of order, mind you, but better late now than never. Paris day 1: May 20th Once upon a time, two girls left Madrid to play in Paris. Ok, I’ll cut the sh!t. Laura and I said adios to Spain and the rest of our fam and headed off to enjoy some fun in France. We woke up crazy early, long before the sun was even aware of it’s being a new day. In the chaos of packing and stressing about what I was forgetting, I only managed… Read more >

The art of packing food is my specialty. Much like making my daily work eats (tutorials here), packing food for traveling is a bit of a craft. Some may find it easier to buy meals at the airport rather than go through the hassle of taking extra baggage through security. Personally, I’m not one of those people. I don’t care if it adds 25 pounds of dead weight that I have to schlep by plane, train, and automobile, for me it’s SO worth the energy. The cost to benefit analysis probably differs depending on your… Read more >

This week is nurses appreciation week (hooray!) but unfortunately the breakfast potluck party on my unit was the day I left for vacay. Had I not just finished night shift I may have stuck around, but I was so tired and ready to start my two weeks on holiday, I didn’t care too much about free bagels. As soon as I gave report to the day shift nurse I was mentally checked out. I may as well have been in Spain on Thursday. Sad face. Next year I’m going to bring yummy vegan food to… Read more >

This week has been truly perfect. Much needed after last week’s sh!t storm of crazy. Friday couldn’t have been a more amazing end to the week either. Kyle has Fridays off, so we both got to sleep in. Brilliant start already. Then we found out his waffle company made it to the finals – open to the public (on May 26th) if you want to attend. Winner gets investors and money and a bunch of press, so this is HUGE. While Kyle had a quick conference call I went on a short run (showered); and… Read more >
