And it’s NOT pretty…it may be the worst smell ever. No. It’s definitely the worst smell ever. Yep, I just conducted a study. 9 out of 10 researchers agreed with me (I think the 10th guy was sleeping with the drug rep). I may be off “egg” products for a while because of this… Lunch Same sammie as ayer (bell pepps, “turkey,” greek yog, and hummus) Plus the usual side-kicks, along with a NEWBIE (and new obsession). Dude, figs and carob covered raisins = heaven. Holy yum, talk about a party in my mouth!! I… Read more >

Ugh. Of all the mornings to wake up without coffee, this was def poor planning on my Kyle’s part (just kidding, I’m obviously the one that finished it and didn’t buy more). Clearly, a trip to Starbucks was the first task of the day. Nothing makes me happier than the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the AM. Nothing! We got the House Blend (with a free cup of joe). Kyle headed off to MM, so I made myself some toast and sipped my coffee (only way to nurse a hang over). I kinda burnt… Read more >

Adios Caroline, hello Sen. Gilliweed. Ok, ok, that’s not her last name…it’s actually a Harry Potter reference, but it’s kinda close? Sen. Gillibrand is her real name. I’m liking the recent fad of appointing female politicos to power (minus the near VP disaster). As for non-red/blue conversation, I had a pretty solid gym day, which consisted of 60 mins ellipticaling on the random setting (levels 9-15) and 15 mins of spinning (escalating intensity). No abs/arms – it was a day of rest for the mat work :) The random setting on the elliptical can be… Read more >

No I didn’t eat Chinese chicken and mushrooms for breakfast, that was just an answer to my daily crossword….and now it’s stuck in my head. Admit it, it IS fun to say! Along with the java, I had 2 pieces of toast with PB (the safe kind). YUM! Alvarado Street bread, kids. Love it! The weather wasn’t even in the double digits, and yet I was in the mood for a cold smoothie for lunch. It could be because I spent the morning reading Twilight (wrapped in 35 blankets)…no shame in it! For those… Read more >
