Sweaty Selections

This weekend was a (partial) work weekend.  And it was INSANELY hot.  Fall is nowhere in sight and while I usually love 90 degree temps, my hormones are not on the same page.  At all.  Our AC isn’t doing much of anything and so Kyle and I spent a large part of the weekend bitching about how uncomfortable and sweaty we were.  So productive. Anyway.  I did take pics of parts of the weekend, so I’ll share. Friday morning I had oatmeal with apples and almond butter.  Even though it was hot, it was the… Read more >

A wedding and a bump

Where oh where to begin.  Last weekend was so full. On Thursday we drove home via the glorious I-5.  If I had to guess how much of my life I’ve spent on that drive… So Thursday morning I got up early because I had a few things I wanted to get done before the commute home.  First, breakfast. Another vegan tofu “scramble” with a sliced peach on the side (as if you couldn’t figure out what that fruit was). And my folate, DHA and iced tea.  Naturally. After breakfast, I ran some errands, and then… Read more >

Hello appetite

Day shift food, including oatmeal, lasagna (two servings), apple, carrots & hummus, and a cinnamon roll.  Details below. Pumpkin and raisin oats made with vanilla almond milk.  I’m officially good and ready for fall. Lasagna that’s bigger than my head.  I had half at lunch time and half an hour later. Snack options. I got home around the same time as Kyle and we each dug into the quinoa quiche I made earlier in the week (meal planning still going strong). I cut it into quarters because I figured it was pretty likely we would… Read more >

All kinds of random

  Caramel and chocolate.  Almost better than nut butter and chocolate.  Almost. What could this be?  I love surprise packages.  Kyle’s a keeper.   I don’t want you to think Kyle and I are crazy stalkers, but we are both very much in love with Katie’s cute little family.  And texts like the above are not uncommon.  I mean seriously, how can you not melt??  Vegetable juice and french fries cancel each other out right?  I mean the fries were from Whole Foods…that’s gotta count for something.  Kyle wanted me to take a photo of… Read more >

Work meal ideas

Contrary to what my posting may indicate, I do still work!  Sorry I’ve been withholding my packed eats from you guys.  I have only been taking pictures of 50% of them, though, so here’s what I’ve got.  Hope this helps you with some ideas! Oats.  Veggies.  Pretzels.  Sabra hummus (x2).  Lasagna (leftover).  Cookies.  Apple.  Candied ginger. Oat preference as of late: nuts, cinnamon & dried cherries.  When the cherries soak overnight they plump up to get to be the size of full cherries.  It’s pretty cool. Now that we are meal planning, my real real… Read more >
