I just want everyone to know that’s how I read “WIAW.” Yes, I’m weird. So each week, when Wednesday rolls around, and the whole blog world shares their “What I Ate Wednesday” posts, I’m constantly doing Indian chants in my head. Better than out loud I suppose… Maybe you want to click away from my crazy blog now. Or maybe you’ll read WIAW like that from now on, too. Sorry. This is actually what I ate on Tuesday, posted on Wednesday. But, WIATPOW doesn’t really roll off the tongue. 5:30 – coffee with almond milk… Read more >

10 years ago, if you asked me my favorite nut butter, I probably would have looked at you like you were crazy. Was there anything other than peanut butter? I certainly wasn’t aware of any other kinds.* I went through obscene amounts of peanut butter in college. I was poor and it was cheap easy to steal from the sorority kitchen. 😉 However, since discovering almond butter, cashew butter, and sunflower seed butter, peanuts have been sidelined. Poor little bench warmers. Anyway. I felt like they earned the starting role in last night’s dinner, so… Read more >

Last weekend we schlepped two BBQs and a whole lotta gear to the Rose Bowl for a day of tailgating. Kyle’s family came too, so we needed a ton of food. Naturally, we went to Whole Foods for groceries. The one in Pasadena is LA’s flagship store and it’s the most insane WF I have ever seen. Ever. I could have spent the whole day there, just browsing the aisles. We almost bought the entire store. And it wasn’t even my fault. Beverly made a rookie mistake, going to the prepared foods… Read more >

My next birthday blog post is from my best friend Lauren. We were so close growing up that our teachers literally wondered what was going to happen once we graduated and went off to separate colleges. Our high school band teacher was especially concerned. And yes, I just revealed the fact that we both were in band all the way through high school. Photo evidence? Me & Lauren & our French Horns. Yeahhhh… Well, now that I’ve given away my deepest darkest nerdiest secret, I will turn the blog over to Lauren… Elise and… Read more >

Last Friday I skipped my planned run to go to the beach. It wasn’t really set in stone anyway…when I say “planned run”, what I mean is, “exercise session I got dressed for but then immediately changed out of.” I’m not one of those people who pre-sets the week’s fitness plan each Sunday night. Yes, I usually do something each day of the week, but I pretty much figure it out that day, depending how I feel in the moment. I work 3 days a week, so on those days I stick to AM… Read more >
