March is here. In honor of that: Out with the old, in with the new… No more gold coast blend (you will not be missed). House blend, welcome home, I love you! So far March SUCKS. I can’t believe it’s STILL snowing! Grrr. 8-10 inches in one day is too much? (that’s what she said) But, seriously, I’m really annoyed with the East Coast. To make matters worse, my parents are in Hawaii for, like, the 9th time this year, and keep texting me pics of gorgeous sunsets and luaus. Ugh. Ok, I’ll stop the… Read more >

This post will be quick and to the point because I am SO tired. Big coffee + blueberry bran VitaTop muffin. These are good, but not too filling. They’d probably be better as snacks because there is certainly not enough caloric oomph to get the day started. So I had a cereal mess (a la Andrea)…I think I will eat all cereal out of this bowl forever-more. It’s so fun! Apple. (I know, it’s a good thing I put a title for the pic, as you may not have been able to figure out what… Read more >

It’s that time of the year. Lent. I’ve been trying to think of what I should give up for a while now. I’m not very good with restrictions, it always seems to make me want something more when I know I can’t have it (forbidden fruit). Plus, nutritionally speaking, I’m in a pretty good place, balancing moderation with the occasional splurge (hey, I deserve it, I’m a hard working girl)!! So, with that in mind, I decided against giving up anything food related, and instead chose television. So, from now until April 11th, afternoon boob-toob-ing… Read more >

You may notice something different about the start to my day…no coffee?!? Kyle and I were trying hard to stomach the rest of the bag of our most recent Starbucks blend (extra bold Gold Coast)…but there is a time and place for being green. And suffering through bad coffee is NOT a compromise I’m willing to make. We got this bag a few days ago, and neither of us have been finishing our AM java since, so what’s the point? Instead of feeling guilty over wasted grounds, I opted for a warm cup of tea… Read more >

Today was a repeat of yesterday. Kyle dragged me out of bed by 9, but it wasn’t until I smelled the coffee brewing, that I actually began to perk up. Like yesterday, I mixed the choc/raspberry blend with the regular starbucks blend. Unlike yesterday, today’s coffee came out way more raspberry flavored. I guess since it’s a blend, there’s no telling which flavor will come through stronger, but I think I preferred yesterday’s. I added a LOT of silk to it (way more than I usually do) to try to downplay the raspberry. I also… Read more >
