FridayAYayAY I’m gonna fly through the AM stuff because the PM is SOOOO much bettah! Attempt #1 at making my own pumpkin butter. Good, but not great. This contains (unmeasured amounts of) WF canned pumpkin, NuNatural’s vanilla extract, cinnamon, and NuNatural’s liquid sweetener. It was weird at first, but like most other fetus obsessions, it grew into a full blown baby food crush in a matter of spoonfuls. YUM!! I had it with apples and carrots (unpictured), while chatting via BBM with my lovah. I decided to go to the gym before my sugar high… Read more >

Happy middle-of-the-week day (I don’t really like to associate “hump” with such a negative time). You know the drill. My pre-packed comida included: dried papaya chunks, oat bran pretzels & raisins, salad (with the works), apple pie Larabar, and peanut butter pretzel MoJo bar. Spinach, carrots, raw corn, black beans, and sweet potatoes. Love me some sweet p’s. They go with EVERYTHING…even things they shouldn’t go with, they do. I dare you to name something they don’t go with. Just to be clear though, I’m not saying I’ll try it… 😉 This was a good… Read more >

For the record, this is Thursday’s food (behind much?)…so forgive me if this is brief. My recollection of the day’s happs is a bit foggy. Nothing too complicated about this. Coffee with mega froth. I broke the fast with fresh melon and blueberry Chobz. Fruity, no? Pretty sure I gymed it up after breks. Nothing like working up a sweat to Little Miss Narcissism (aka She by Sheree). Seriously, WHO gets a life size portrait of their own bust? Those ATL b!tches will never cease to amaze me… I wanted some good old fashioned comfort… Read more >

I didn’t even realize how ridiculously orange my meals were, until I uploaded all the pictures…holy naranja! I woke up fairly early for my day off, which allowed time for serious AM chowing. This mug vat of coffee had froth up the yin-yang (just the way I like it). I also toasted an English muffin and caked on the Smart Balance light. Puddles of butter normally skeeve me out, but for some reason I craved it today. Throughout the morning I read blogs and snacked on lots of fruit. Gotta enjoy the (dwindling) sweet part… Read more >

I have been a slacker! Rather than let these photos cause my 900th computer crash fall by the wayside, how about we play a quick little game of catch (up)? Last week, vital wheat gluten met my bestie, the chickpea. I went with the tried and true (recipe from V’con) for chickpea seitan cutlets. Can cookbooks win Pulitzers? So simple, so genius. I barely let them cool before taste testing them out on a piece of bread (and subsequently losing a layer of skin on the roof of my mouth). Yum yum. The magic bullet… Read more >
