Day to night

I had an awkward transition mid-week from a normal routine to a night shift routine.  The first day is always awkward.  I woke up at 7:30 and tried to go back to sleep but wasn’t successful in the least.  At 8 I gave up and showered. And breakfasted.  With toast and eggs x2.  And iced tea with almond milk.  It seems to be my summer breakfast of choice. Before yoga I had a banana.  And then I got zen.  Ommmmm. As per usual, I went to the WF across the street afterwards. Juice!  I can’t… Read more >

Catching up on last weekend

After a week of saving money on home-cooked meals a la plan, I opted to splurge for the weekend.  Lazy me.    I was working though, so it was my treat.  I snacked on chex and chocolate crunchfuls.  The crunchfuls are made with pea protein.  I got them in a sample pack a long time ago.  I reviewed the plain ones here.  The chocolate ones are better but still have a definite pea flavor going on.  I could get used to it (and didn’t really mind it that much), but if you’re looking for a… Read more >

The East side

I think I’m psychic.  Every time I float, I get a “feeling” that it’s gonna happen as I head into work.  I swear, I’m not making it up.  Yesterday I even said out loud (in my head) “I bet I’m floating today”.  And I did!  I was on 7 East yesterday, an acute medicine floor (as they call themselves).  The last time I floated was probably in the winter, so I’m definitely due, but it’s still odd to me that I sensed it coming.  I’ve also been having crazy weird ass dreams lately (which I… Read more >

A pound of seaweed

  Breakfast #1: mom’s plum jam + Earth Balance + cinnamon raisin Vital Vittles Breakfast #2: quinoa + scrambled eggs   Lunch: Love Grown Cocoa Goodness oat clusters + raspberries + almond milk   I had 3 bowls of this, so there’s not much left in the bag.  Maybe one servings worth?  Stupid serving sizes. Snack: apple + Trilogy Kombucha In the afternoon, Kyle went on a walk and wound up in our old neighborhood and decided to pop into Santa Monica Seafood.  This is the only place I’ve found close to me that makes… Read more >

Subtext

  The most massive banana ever.  At the perfect state of ripeness.   A work breakfast (flaxy oatmeal) that I didn’t end up eating because I got cafeteria french toast instead.  GAHHHHH!!!  Why can’t I quit you!!! Quinoa, roasted veggies, and nooch up the yin yang. Greens, roasted veggies, hardboiled eggs, and avocado.  Again, I nooch-ed it up post-photo. Curry tofu.  It’s vegan, it’s FODMAPs free, and it’s in the book.  SodaStream water with lemons from the neighbors tree.  Yes, I put a whole lemon in my water.  And I smashed it up and drank… Read more >
