I apologize for being away (I missed you all, even if you didn’t notice I was gone, haha). These past few days have been insane. I can’t even begin to try to condense it into a blog-worthy Cliff’s notes version. So… (a) I was working a LOT – gotta get the cash flow to pay those billz, yo! (b) A patient stroked out RIGHT before I was supposed to head out on my lunch break (the blogger meet up, no less) – ahhhhhh! I hate to say which part of that last sentence disappointed me… Read more >

When I woke up, it was WAY later than I expected…obviously my alarm didn’t go off. Shoot! But then I made my way out to the living room (aka the only other room in the apartment that’s not the bedroom), and our houseguests were all still sound asleep. No worries, I figured, they are probably just jet lagged…I made my coffee and headed back into the bedroom to sip and read blogs.Stevia and silk makes the world go round. This mug is CRAZY big, so this was quite the caffeine load.(Not wanting to make too… Read more >

I guess the cold weather is back? At least the weekend was nice, but talk about short lived. Good morning blog-loves! I’m in an especially great mood this morning because I (again) was called late last night by my work to get the day off. I still get paid, but because they were overstaffed, I don’t have to go in. I don’t know if this is something to be worried about, though, since 2 other NY hospitals recently went under, and we really haven’t had too many cases lately. And we all know our economy… Read more >

Discovery!! Hot water and a shot of POM = yummmmmm! I woke up with a grrrrowling stomach, so I knew I had to have something before I hit the subway. But I’m not a fan of eating first thing in the morning (my tum tum doesn’t handle it well for some reason), so this warm POM water was a great discovery – might become a ritual, because it got me perked right up (AND it’s caffeine free). Naturally I still stopped at the ‘bucks on the way to work for the real deal. I packed… Read more >

WHAT am I going to do now that Top Chef is over? I miss Padma and Tom already 🙁 To answer a few questions I got last post about my sushi skillz: I do have a sushi making kit that I got from Kyle a few years ago. It was a surprise anniversary present (I swear, I have THE most thoughtful BF). Since we lived in San Francisco at the time, we got tons of fresh stuff at the market in the Ferry Building (on of my fave places) and then we got even more… Read more >
