Now that’s it’s “summer” we have been sleeping with the bedroom windows open, but the thunder and lightning were so INSANE last night, I had to channel my inner Von Trapp and sing “My Favorite Things” to calm myself down…it was scary! It woke me up it was so loud. And just so you know, normally I sleep like a rock, so this was no joke. Clearly I had a rough night’s sleep – enter coffee 🙂 These are a few of my favorite things… Peach chobz (not as good as blueberry) and a bowl… Read more >

Up at 5. Out the door in under 30. Not a record, but not too shabby either. I got to downtown way earlier than usual, so the bucks wasn’t open yet (eek!)…good thing I had Bruno’s to the rescue. I’ve raved before, so my love for this tiny place is no secret, a small steamy coffee turned that frown upside down 🙂 Here’s my latest read. I heart David Sedaris! Makes the loss of express trains on the weekends somewhat tolerable. I managed to avoid the local trains today, so all was good. Anyways, I… Read more >

Ugh, my hair is NOT cool with this weather. NOT cool man, NOT cool. Today’s food photos are nowhere to be found…I’m not sure where they vanished off to, but the culprit is either my camera or computer (and based on my recent technology-challenged history, it’s the computer). It’s a shame, too, because I went to Whole Foods on the way home from work (killed the weekly monthly budget), and there were some major food porn pictures from the hot bar. I guess my computer was jealous of the deliciousness going on, and wanted to eat… Read more >

The sun came out of hibernation today! It was glorious. I forgot what it felt like to have 90 degree rays beaming down on me. Soak it up baby, soak it up. I should mention Wed night after I posted I had toasted Alvarado Street bread with peanut butter and carob chips. I’m not usually a late night eater (at least I try to avoid it) but this new purchase had to be tested. It passed. Waaaaay passed. So all Thursday long, I thought it was Friday. I keep getting confused on the days of… Read more >

Let’s get down to it. Woke up at 4:45, hopped on the subway, fueled up at the ‘bucks, and started my day. Do I really need to explain these? My work day eats are so boring and repetitive. I’ll admit, it’s a little heavy on the dried fruit…but my fiancé is in the Jerz for a conference, so…you know…(wink wink) I had lots of coffee, too. It was v. necessary since I was yawning at a rate of 7 times/minute. The day was pretty chill…there were no cases today, and my other patients were… Read more >
