Patience is a virtue

It’s a totally random coincidence that my 2nd blogiversary falls on the same day as my wedding. Although one is semi-noteworthy, the other far outweighs it (by leaps and bounds) in importance…and so I will be postponing the celebration of hungryhungryhippie turning two until I return from Hawaii.  But you can be sure the wait will be worth it for you because I have several giveaways in the works.  Go big or go home, right? Hey, I waited 6 years for this day to come, so I know something about patience.  [College] [1st Anniversary] [Graduation]… Read more >

Beachy keen

I started the day with a java the size of my head and a bowl of oats topped with some peanut buttah, which left me bouncing with energy.  Kyle suggested some beach time and I thought, why not?! Ok, the placement of the peanut butter didn’t work out for the photo at all… I made the oats on the stove with more water than I typically use and because of that they were super gooey.  So even though I tried to leave the spoon on top to show off the PB, the other blobs just sunk to… Read more >

Did I mention I’m unemployed?

Kyle and I just left Santa Monica and are on our way to Nor Cal now (where our wedding is) to iron out all the dirty last minute details.  Can you even believe it’s under a week ‘til I become a Mrs.!?! Wow.  It still hasn’t really hit me. I’m several days behind in my posts and something tells me I won’t have much time to play catch up this week…so maybe I’ll get a few mini-posts up to show you what Kyle and I have been up to. [times a zillion] If you follow… Read more >

Mexican Layered Dip

Because (a) I’m without Windows Live Writer (still learning how to get XP on my MacBook), (b) I’m not very savvy with wordpress’ blogging tool, and (c) it’s taking me an hour to load each photo, I’m going to post another photo recipe from last weekend. It’s not like I reinvented the wheel with this one (the recipe is certainly not original), but the photos are pretty and I thought I should share. (Vegetarian) refried beans Black beans. Sour cream. Corn roasted salsa. Four cheese blend. Black beans. Avocado. More avocado. Salsa. Devour. I made the… Read more >

Seeking seaweed

Cravings are both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because they help me make up my mind (I swear 99% of the time I can’t decide on what to make for dinner even when I’m half-way through making it). A curse because when I do get that oh-so-rare lightbulb moment, it’s usually for a fairly random food and the chances of me actually having it on hand are slim to none. The other day my mind stomach was absolutely dead set on seaweed. Oddly enough, I actually had some wakame chilling in the pantry. I… Read more >
