IS TODAY! Ok, who is excited about this one!?! I know I’m not alone here. Hummus is basically the best food on the planet. The real shame is that I can’t enjoy it as much as I want these days since my son has a sesame allergy. Any long time readers know I used to live on hummus. It made up 50% of my diet on a conservative day, and I’m not exaggerating. And it all started back in NYC with the introduction of Sabra. Taste buds meet heaven. And then there were wedding bells….

Every once in a while there are certain weekends which seem to have everything happening. All on the same day. You know those weekends, right? Where you have plans to do one thing and then you find out there’s four weddings, a baby shower, a football game, a marathon, the Art & Wine Festival, and all the other things going on…this past weekend was one of those. So is October 12th. Why is everything happening on Oct 12th? Anyway, I switched my Saturday shift to allow me to attend two birthday parties. The first was… Read more >

You’d think after a week of breakfast burritos Kyle wouldn’t be stoked for Mexican night, but you’d be wrong.

Super easy. For vegan options:… Read more >

This week was fun. Busy and not busy in perfect amounts. One thing I’ve noticed about working part time is there’s a big (HUGE) difference between 2 shifts and 3 shifts. It may not sound like it, but I feel like the time off allows me to get so much more done. And rather than fill it with errands and chores, I can actually hang out and relax and enjoy myself. It’s lovely. Here are some of the things I ate this week. Breakfasts Baked oatmeal bars with blueberries [sorry about the crappy pic]… Read more >
