Cha-ching!! Hear that? That’s the sound of the $$ being deposited in my bank account after working a holiday. Time and a half, yes please! (Sadly, I have a feeling the influx of cash flow on my end is probably barely enough to cover the amount oozing out of my better half while he is living it up in Vegas…) I gave the tropical fruit Larabar another shot (but ONLY for you Julie!) and I’m sorry to say, I still wasn’t a fan. Want the proof? I actually threw out the uneaten half. Now, I’m… Read more >

Tofu + chickpeas = tofummus? It’s honestly the best thing ever. Hear that Sabra? Consider this your warning…you MAY have been dethroned. I will hold off on this latest obsession for now… First things first. Work. It. For some reason the unit was -19 degrees today, which is the rationale I’m using to explain why I ate > 5000 kcals in 20 hours. Food = warmth, right? I’m pretty sure Einstein already proved that theory, so I won’t take all the credit. But in all no seriousness, I had goosebumps and was shivering all morning… Read more >

No need to send out the search dogs, I’m alive and well. In the last few days I’ve been hanging out with with my sis and working. I worked the past two days, and Laura left to return to CA today (tear). In the interest of just getting up to date, I’ll limit Tues through Thurs to the very upmost blog-worthy parts. Not that everything I write isn’t thrilling… Me + Laura + WF lunch + central park = happy day The sun was BLAZING, so the photos were all soopah bright. In case your… Read more >

Sadly Saturday was not a sleep in day. We had to get things moving bright and early, so clearly a sunrise java run was in the cards. After meeting with our (now confirmed) wedding photographer we hit up the 23rd St/7th Ave Whole Foods. It was only 11, but Kyle signed us BOTH up for a joint training session with his trainer at 2 pm and I needed to give my tummy digesting time. Whole Foods’ Mediterranean hot bar was calling to me in a MAYJ way! Oh how I love falafel! I had the… Read more >

I’m exhausted with a capital “E” after the last 3 days of work I’ve had. I shouldn’t complain since I had 4 days off in a row while my sister was visiting, but man was it difficult to go back to such a chaotic scene. Tuesday’s shift whizzed by so fast I was playing catch up for 12 hours straight (the unit was good busy, not shoot-myself-in-the-head busy), on Wednesday I cried (more on THAT later…), and Thursday I was called to the ICU to cover a patient who had taken a turn for the… Read more >
