PranaBar hooked it up!! I was soooo excited to try these bars. My work eats were long overdue for a newbie š Pairs of everything (salad, apples, bars).

After my sophisticated breakfast of an apple and frothy cup of coffee, I headed to the dentistās office for a routine cleaning. Since I was in midtown, I met up with Kyle after my appointment to show off my sparkling new pearly whites. I owe my cavity free chompers to these babies. Kyle and I went for a little stroll before he returned to work.

This weekend I relaxed more than I have in a loooooong time. I didnāt 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).

We all live in different areas in Manhattan, so in order to get to know each othersā hoods we alternate who chooses the place (forcing me to leave my comfort zone of UWS dining). This month was MY pick, which was a relief since the past two dinners have taken me an embarrassing amount of time to find (the village is RIDIC confusing and Iām lucky if I end up retracing my steps only 3 times). Usually I… Read more >
