Sometimes Kyle has lunch meetings and sometimes he’s home for breakfast so what I pack for him varies. I just ask him about his schedule the night before and what meals he wants. Last week I made a bunch of breakfast burritos for Kyle. I assembled them and rolled them up in foil all at once so I could just throw them in his lunch box the night before. So easy. I am seriously sorry about the photos, but there’s only so much you can do with an iphone at 9 pm. For the… Read more >

This week was fun. Busy and not busy in perfect amounts. One thing I’ve noticed about working part time is there’s a big (HUGE) difference between 2 shifts and 3 shifts. It may not sound like it, but I feel like the time off allows me to get so much more done. And rather than fill it with errands and chores, I can actually hang out and relax and enjoy myself. It’s lovely. Here are some of the things I ate this week. Breakfasts Baked oatmeal bars with blueberries [sorry about the crappy pic]… Read more >

So…hi again! I took some time off. And it was lovely. Maybe too lovely? It made me wonder if quitting HHH was an imminent reality… My free time is so precious now. But I do love having this space to share my latest food and life stuffs… But I have a job. And a kid. And a husband. And yadda yadda. I’m triaging my life like a freakin’ ER nurse. Priority #1 is family. And as you have now noticed, the blog is definitely on the backburner. That’s how I roll. C’est la vie…. Read more >

Hey! I’m alive! Ish. This week was crazy. [Life is crazy] So many emotions. Adjusting to working again after maternity leave is one thing. Adjusting to a new hospital and orienting to the new unit environment is another. And adjusting to spending the day away from my love is yet another. All these changes require me to be flexible and cool with change, which isn’t my strong suit. I’m a creature of habit with a bit of OCD mixed in (what nurse doesn’t have OCD/Type A tendencies, tell me that). Sometimes this is a good… Read more >

Another fun one. Saturdays and Sundays are my faves because I get to spend them with both my boys. Friday evening Kyle BBQ-ed some shrimp and corn and I made a salad. I marinated 2 pounds of shrimp in Garlic Gold red wine vinaigrette. It contains garlic infused olive oil and red wine and Italian seasonings. No garlic, so it’s totally FODMAPs friendly. And the shrimp were freakin’ delish. We got way too much. Clearly. But that means easy lunch leftovers. Before is above, after is below. Yeah, I bought cooked shrimp again. I’m a… Read more >
