I was working. And eating. Here’s three shifts-worth of food. Tuesday night: spinach, carrots, quinoa and eggs (topped in Bragg’s and nooch) baby carrots tamari roasted almonds Udi’s bread with Artisana cashew-tahini butter Kettle Pop organic kettle corn Not much to say here. It tasted like kettle corn. Duh. Wednesday night: brown rice, spinach, and Sunshine veggie burger (original) baby carrots Inka Chips sweet plantain chips So good! Even though the whole bag is considered 3 servings (which I obviously ignored and treated as a single serving), the nutritional info is still not bad…. Read more >

Ordinarily I don’t mind floating, but today I was SO not in the mood for it. Fish out of water x 12 hours…blah. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes it’s nice to spend a day with a different patient population – like sampling yogurt, you get a small taste without having to commit. But I also love routine (who doesn’t?) and after working yesterday, I was looking forward to having the familiarity that comes with a second shift in a row. Even when patients are busy I’m still able to get a sense of rhythm by… Read more >

You must be sick of non-food (aka house progress) posts by now, huh? Ok, how about my work food for a change of pace (slash return to the real reason I blog). Breakfast… Oats, puffed millet, white chia seeds and sunflower seed butter on top.

Hey look! An office! Now my crap is actually semi-organized. Kyle was getting really tired of seeing FODMAPs research articles and GI studies piled up all over our old apartment, so he gifted me some file cabinets in the “office” of our new place. Such a romantic, that one. As you can see, the casa is coming along quite nicely. Our extra bedroom is big enough to double as an office and workout room. And guest bedroom, of course. While unpacking we found a box of electronics that would make Steve Jobs roll over in… Read more >
