The whole shebang of last week in one post. Here goes. Breakfast on Monday was the last of this savory bread and fried eggs. Breakfast on Tuesday was out – I had a savory crepe with hash browns at Crepeville. Because Crepeville’s portions are awesomely massive I had leftovers for breakfast on Wednesday. Which I paired with two fried eggs. Thursday I made steel cut oats in the rice cooker (the crock pot was already occupied) for our whole family. I topped mine with a bunch of non-nut things (aka seeds galore) – including… Read more >

This weekend was full of relaxing at home. Thank goodness! Last weekend I came down with mastitis and was way too ambitious for my own good. We went to a football game with a couple and their 6 month old on Saturday. And then traveled to the East Bay for a baby shower on Sunday. It was really fun, but I my suffer-in-silence-and-just-push-through-it approach completely backfired. Come Monday I felt like crap and it was just me and pacman left to our own devices. Raise your hand if you’re surprised by my stubbornness…nobody? Yeah that’s… Read more >

Before I get to this… I have to show you what I threw together the pervious day. People always love the quickie meal ideas I give more than the elaborate recipes (okay, I never have elaborate per se, but more involved). So here’s another one that is highly adaptable and took under 5 minutes. Thai sweet potato rice casserole with black beans. Sounds like it took a lot of effort, when really, it was all thanks to a box, a can, and an appliance. Pacific’s thai sweet potato soup may have been… Read more >

I’ve got a pile-up of products to share. As usual, some were good, some were okay, and some were losers. 1. Zing chocolate peanut butter bar Kyle stole this from me, but took a photo (which means he knew he was in the for-Elise-only bar stash). In any event, here is his review: Zing bar was good. Tastes like a tiger’s milk bar (for anyone that matters to) but better and not as chalky. Fluffy enough to be chewy but hearty enough to be satiating. 2. Healthy Surprise delivery service These services are popping… Read more >

By the time I got home the other day I was about to fall over with exhaustion. It was one of the busiest days I’ve ever worked. To give you a point of reference, I never finished my morning coffee. Yes, I managed to get away for my lunch break (remember how we have break relief nurses to cover us), but I spent 75% of the time tucked away in the computer room getting caught up on charting. Anyway. If you’re looking for someone to blame for my really delayed Wednesday post, I’m removing myself… Read more >
