These past few days have been a bit busy for me…among other things, I’ve been prepping for my follow-up job interview (which is tomorrow – eek!). Coffee for four. All for me 🙂 I have been cooking, too, but as you can see, blogging has taken the back burner. Also, I’ve been having a string of bottomless pit days. I’m sure you’re familiar. You know the days when you’re stomach just won’t quit. Which is all well and good, except that it leaves me with 482 photos to post. Ugh. I may as well dive… Read more >

Such a productive day! First and foremost, I set up a job interview (hooray!), so…yeah. There’s that. But in addition to my latest career progress, I tackled more things on my to-do list and ate some amazing meals. The night before bed I threw together a tupperware full of overnight oats. I know I’ve mentioned it before, but I do like my oats raw. When I was young I ate Quaker’s packets with milk like cold cereal. I guess today’s overnight oats are just the more nutritious version… I wonder how long 2 1/2 pounds… Read more >

I went to bed sooo late last night because I was waiting for Kyle to finish his homework (yes, he has homework). Too bad for me that didn’t end up being until 1 am. I wasn’t too concerned because, hey, it’s not like I have a job or anything. But instead of sleeping in and regaining those lost hours, I was up and at ‘em at 7:30. 😡 6 hours of sleep? Meh. Not bad, but not a routine I want to roll with all the time. The early rise and shine did give me… Read more >

This weekend was a reminder of why Kyle and I moved back to the West Coast. No offense NYC, but when it comes to the weather and the social scene, California is where the party’s at! I may be well out of college, but that doesn’t mean I’m an old fart (yet). This weekend I was drawn to keg parties and tailgates like a moth to a flame. I don’t mind a seedy bar once in a while either. But before I get to the brew-fueled festivities, let me back up to Friday. You like… Read more >

Last week I had one of those days where my appetite just wouldn’t quit. I hate those kinds of days, honestly. They either mean my metabolism is psychotically fast (here’s hoping!) or I’m nursing a tapeworm (shudder). Unfortunately, I didn’t handle it in a healthy or mindful way. My stomach seemed to be growling constantly, so I took advantage of it and (ultimately) went overboard. I wasn’t going to blog about it (because, quite frankly, the actual eats weren’t exactly newsworthy), but then I realized how I reacted the following day was worth sharing with… Read more >
