Would Miss Manners serve house guests nooch?

Are you getting tired of me working so much?  I hope the packed lunches aren’t too boring, but whatcha gonna do, right?  Today’s lunch eats included tupperwared kale chips and a salad, DOS manzanas, a buncha bars (Clif’s Z bars and Odwalla repeats from yesterday), and dried papaya spears/pears. As I headed out on my lunch break today, I saw a pretty fantastic sight (these things tend to occur outside the Emergency Dept).   Picture a homeless Caucasian man (60-ish years old) in a wheelchair rocking a black baby back and forth, and bouncing it up… Read more >

(extra long) Sigh.

What a short lived break.  Having only one day off of work was such a tease.  So back to the hospital I went. The usual crew of lunchables: salad with a lot of greenery, roasted carrots with cranz, Spiced Pumpkin Pie Clif bar (why does this have to be seasonal, it’s SO good), PB cookie Larabar (best flavor, definitely, best flavor), TWO apples (not baby horse ones, these are the big bad boys), dried pineapple and pears. Foggy bag much?  By the way, I’m completely obsessed with roasting carrots into fries.  I could easily go… Read more >

D.C. (part 2)

Despite our late night out on the town, we still met at 7 am for breakfast on Saturday.  Craziness, right?  I don’t have any food pics from Saturday until dinner.  If you knew everything we did and saw, you’d understand why. Washington monument WWII memorial Reflecting pool Lincoln memorial Vietnam Veterans memorial Natural History museum American History museum Stars and Stripes Cafeteria lunch (veggie burger) National Air and Space museum White House Starbucks (yes, it gets it’s own bullet point) After what felt like miles and miles of walking, we finally made it back to… Read more >

Zucchini pasta weekend

If I had to design a perfect birthday weekend, I definitely wouldn’t include two days of work.  Unfortunately, my boss didn’t agree.  I guess I can’t really complain about it though, since I just got back from a week vacay in CA.  I was totally prepared with a buncha pre-packed food. Fruit, of the dried persuasion, included mango and pear slices, as well as a strawberry chewy-thingy (Nike race freebie), while fresh fruit was limited to a smallish apple.  I also bar-ed it up with the Blueberry Crisp flavored Clif, and a Cashew Cookie Larabar. … Read more >

It’s my birthday

I’m 27 today!!!  And I’m gonna partay chow chow like it’s my birthday! In lieu of a birthday post (which I will save for tomorrow) I am going to instead share yesterday’s eats, as well as my offish results from the San Francisco Nike Marathon…I actually have plans for today that don’t involve working or blogging 🙂 By now, you all know I love running.  I ALSO happen to love my readers (which is a simple and very understated way to put it, but for now it will have to do).  So, when a certain… Read more >
