Can I just show all the yummy things I’ve been stuffing my face with lately in one quick post? Life before Thanksgiving did exist. The last of the pumpkin cornbread muffins with eggs. And yet another savory breakfast. The to-go cup is because I was heading to MOPS after and wanted to be able to continue my decaf fueling there. We made pies! I actually can’t take any credit for this because I was holding P the whole time and another mom did 99% of the work for me. He had a meltdown… Read more >

I stopped taking pics of my lunches a while back because they were soooo repetitive (avo and egg salad with some kind of carb). But then we ran out of eggs and I was forced to get a little more creative. The stars of the show were these gifts from my neighbor. She has a pomegranate tree and hooked me up with 4 red beauties. There’s something therapeutic about de-seeding them. Especially when your kiddo is napping in his crib for the first time in days. [I love chest naps but they make it… Read more >

Right after I posted the other night I realized my optimism about returning to a 100% healthy state was premature. Details aren’t necessary, but I was up til 3 am – in and out of the bathroom (pretty sure you can fill in the blanks). Fortunately, a big shipment of Vita Coco arrived earlier that day… 100% pure coconut water. Hydrate naturally. Exactly what I needed to do. I am not in love with them…and I think Kailey described the flavor best when she said it’s like the leftover juice from those snack-pack fruit cups,… Read more >

I feel like I need to play catch up. As I mentioned in my eco hippie post, I was a bit ill the other day, so my pics were pretty boring. Here’s a queasy stomach tutorial: First, drown yourself in tea… Then, slowly make your way through as many different carbs as you can get your hands on… Natural antioxidants don’t hurt either… (Thanks to the POM fairy, Ryan, I am stocked for a while, too – score) Mid-day napping is practically a given…on top of several hours in front of the t.v. (i.e. Top… Read more >

Working on the holidays isn’t my favorite thing to do, but I realize there are worse things (like being a patient). So I tried to make the most of it, and celebrated regardless. I was working with my fave co-RNs, too, which helped make the day fun, rather than depressing. Last night, in an effort to get to bed on time, I threw this lunch together way too fast. I’d like to blame the lack of groceries on my desire to save $$ and use up what’s currently in the deepest depths of the pantry,… Read more >
