Sunday was an absolutely GORGEOUS day in the Bay. I actually took this picture Saturday night when Kyle and I decided to take a stroll down memory lane (through Crissy Field). For new readers, it’s where Kyle proposed to me a year ago. It’s now two months until our wedding and I still feel as giddy as I did the day he popped the question. Anyways, back to Sunday morning… Kyle and I woke up bright and early, said goodbye to the Marina, and headed to the East Bay to spend Father’s Day with my… Read more >

Does Trader Joe’s cater? No, but they may as well have, since our dinner party was dominated by their products. Last week I got together with a group of friends to make dinner and celebrate our So Cal relocation – it was so fun, I sense the birth of a new tradition (Gilmore Girls Fri Night dinners anyone?). On the menu: Hummus apps Quinoa salad Spinach salad Fresh bread Fun Kyle got to chopping, while the girls got to eating chatting. My friend’s kitchen is about as opposite from our NY kitchen as they come… Read more >

Wow…you guys sure like the EasyLunchBoxes! Honestly, I wish I could give them to all of you…your comments were SO amazing.

Today was a good day for your truly. And it will be for you too, since there’s a giveaway involved (read on). I have nothing very interesting to report. I started a new book, watched mindless t.v. shows, did Jillian’s shred (level 1), and then made it to the gym for my last workout at NYSC. I also did some eating. The single serving Silk vanilla soymilk was a freebie from the 1/2 marathon. Honestly, the goody-bags you get at races is such a fun perk. I also made pumpkin/carob chip toast (and only took… Read more >

Today sucked. Mondays suck. I was thisclose to not ranting on the blog, but I just decided to let it all out (it’s pretty therapeutic). So here it goes… Approximately one second after stepping foot outside the hospital today I burst into tears. I knew it was going to happen. I’d been holding it in all day. Naturally I called Kyle and he made things better-ish (or at least as better as they could be in the moment), but I couldn’t help how I truly felt (which was a combination of sad/pissed/angry/frustrated). There were many… Read more >
