What a day. Full of a bizarre mix of emotions. I’m not sure I can totally put it into words, so for now I’ll just stick to the photos. Well, what do we have here? My last work lunch for a while included a big salad with a side of carrots and Livin’ Spoonful raw crackers, along with 2 apples, a vegan oatmeal raisin cookie from Candle, and a tupp ‘o zuppa. This was the other half of Amy’s Southwestern Veg soup bulked up with extra frozen veggies (corn and broccoli). As for the cookie, well,… Read more >

Where did we last leave off? Ah yes, strolling the High Line. I had two raw blondie macaroons from O.L.D. while we wandered over the city, and then we decided the time had come to brave the masses. Times Square or bust? (Personally I’d rather bust, but that feels awful to say after the Saturday night incident). I really avoid midtown, especially on the weekends, but when friends are visiting from out of town, ya gotta embrace your inner tourist…and that includes the hideously crowded 42nd street area. I swear, all the lights and crowds… Read more >

Wow…you guys sure like the EasyLunchBoxes! Honestly, I wish I could give them to all of you…your comments were SO amazing. I love that there are so many of us out there who pack lunches to tote to work/school/wherever every day! We are a special breed.

I promised a giveaway, but I just don’t have it in me tonight. Blogger fail. I do have last night’s dinner, though. When I got home I was in such a wretched mood, I really wasn’t hungry. Sometimes my appetite shuts down shop when I get so worked up…it’s like I am so emotionally drained I can’t even think about anything, food included. I decided to shower, which really helped calm me down and by the time I was de-patient-ified, I was ready to make dinner. What do you do when you are worked up? … Read more >

Saturday started with the ordinary: coffee, blog, tv, yadda yadda. Eventually I made a brunch platter (of the not so ordinary nature). Maybe carrots and apples seem weird for breakfast the first meal of the day, but it’s what I was craving. And if you think I had these without hummus, then you clearly don’t know me at all. I finished off the rest of the (just opened) tub with a 7 grain roll, followed by grapes. Nothing like 8 servings of chickpea heaven to get the day started right. After a hearty mug of… Read more >
