Our apartment is a dentist’s nightmare. The only thing I brought back from Argentina was chocolate. Chocolate bars, chocolate cookies, chocolate covered this and chocolate covered that. Cadbury makes so many products you can’t get here in the states, so I obviously had to bring home several to sample. And since I fell in love with alfajor cookies, I brought a dozen or so of them back with me too. Needless to say, I have a few pounds of desserts to work through in 2012 and I’m very happy about it. Add on top of… Read more >

I leave for work and it’s pitch black outside…12 hours later I leave the hospital and it’s again darkness. I can’t really complain since I spent Friday on the beach with Kyle (summer sun in October, what whaaaat). But I worked this weekend and tried to take a photo out the kitchen window before I left…just to show the lack of light. Didn’t really work. :( It’s so dark out, all you can see is my reflection. My breakfast is far more photogenic. Quinoa on quinoa? Why not! I added Sweet Almond & Quinoa… Read more >

I have been completely lagging in showing off my work eats. Packing up my food for the hospital is an art form, but it’s one I’ve perfected. Blogging about them, however, takes more time and I’m always exhausted when I get home from 12+ hours on my feet. And of course, there was the unexpected drive down to Newport Beach this weekend…so I’m definitely behind. Not to throw excuses at you, I’m just saying, I have weeks of hospital food stored up. How excited are you!? Ha! Here what’s to follow: on-the-go meals that are… Read more >

Between Kyle’s oral surgery and my G-ma’s hospital stay, my “days off” this week have been very medical. 🙁 It’s all good, but I’m sorta thinking getting back to work on Monday may be less stressful for me. My heart is tired from worrying. Thank goodness I had just received a package in the mail from Larabar. New flavor alert!! Review to come [hint: it’s very yummy].

I worked Saturday, but had Sunday and Monday off. Wee! Let’s fly through Saturday so I can show the fun stuff. I got up at 4:30 am to work out. It was mediocre since I had a headache. I don’t know that my heart rate got up since there wasn’t any cardio going on, but I did some weight stuff, resistance bands, and yoga/stretching for 30 minutes. My headache disappeared once I drank a few glasses of water (and a mug of almond milk/coffee). My half-caf-java was followed by the above breakfast of vanilla soy… Read more >
