Monday had very little going on for me. My bicycle (which was getting new gear switcher thingies) was finally done and ready for pick up, but aside from that I did little else worth mentioning. I started the day with another carob coffee concoction. This time I added a tsp of carob powder to the milk during the frothing process. Turned out pretty well. Later on I had a big bowl of fruit, including two apples and some strawberries with cinnamon on top. I reread Skinny Bitch on Sunday night and it reminded me of… Read more >

Today was a good day for your truly. And it will be for you too, since there’s a giveaway involved (read on). I have nothing very interesting to report. I started a new book, watched mindless t.v. shows, did Jillian’s shred (level 1), and then made it to the gym for my last workout at NYSC. I also did some eating. The single serving Silk vanilla soymilk was a freebie from the 1/2 marathon. Honestly, the goody-bags you get at races is such a fun perk. I also made pumpkin/carob chip toast (and only took… Read more >

After I started writing, I realized I had more to say than I thought, so it’s gonna be a three part plan (stay tuned). For now, let’s talk about my tapeworm insatiable appetite. For the life of me, I couldn’t get my hunger in check the other morning. “Nature is a giver, a true friend and a sustainer.” The same can be said about Justin’s nutbutter. On the english muffin was the “classic” almond butter, and DANG, was it tasty. This is by far my favorite kind of nut butter. I never thought the day… Read more >

This weekend I relaxed more than I have in a loooooong time. I didn’t exercise. I hardly cooked. To be honest, I pretty much spent the weekend watching the Australian Open, football, and hanging out with Kyle (I did a fair amount of eating as well). If that’s not the picturesque weekend, well, shoot me. I have a TON of photos, but they aren’t very glamorous and don’t require much in the way of explanations…so…without further ado… JAVA the hut Bluffin’ with my muffin How to make quinoa ghetto Afternoon delight(s) YouShake customized “Blended… Read more >
