Yesterday, after my pancakes had digested, I squished a run into the morning (squished being the operative word). It was 26 minutes long and I was in such a rush to shower and get ready afterwards that I seriously neglected my post-workout stretching. Bad runner! Knowing it would be a mistake to leave without eating first, I whipped this up on my way out the door. I was so friggin’ rushed that in between pulsing the bullet, I was tearing through my closet, jabbing mascara into my lashes, and chucking whatever I could grab… Read more >

If there were any title more appropriate, I’d go with it, but this is really just a bunch of pics that have accumulated…and if they help give you ideas on healthy FODMAPS options, great. If not, sorry for this post’s random nature. Two recent recipes inspired this meal: Jenna’s veggie fried rice and Evan’s fried quinoa. I make quinoa in bulk at the beginning of every week. Without fail. Some weeks I make two batches because I go through it so quickly. I use my rice cooker, so it’s a completely mindless activity…as second… Read more >

I have been completely lagging in showing off my work eats. Packing up my food for the hospital is an art form, but it’s one I’ve perfected. Blogging about them, however, takes more time and I’m always exhausted when I get home from 12+ hours on my feet. And of course, there was the unexpected drive down to Newport Beach this weekend…so I’m definitely behind. Not to throw excuses at you, I’m just saying, I have weeks of hospital food stored up. How excited are you!? Ha! Here what’s to follow: on-the-go meals that are… Read more >

Guess what finally opened!!! Tender Greens’ new Santa Monica location! I have been waiting for this for quite some time (remember last week when I tried to go and it wasn’t open yet?). While I was thrilled to learn that it was opening this past weekend, I was sad that it happened while I was away in NYC. Naturally I made a beeline for the place as soon as we got back in town. 🙂 I took Kyle and my girlfriend Lauren with me. Lauren got the Harvest salad with Organic Fruit, Artisan Cheese, Local… Read more >

Nine Eleven. Wow. A decade gone by. I don’t think anyone will ever forget where they were on that fateful day in 2001. I was about to start undergrad at UCLA. Several years later, on Sep 11th, I moved to Philly for RN school . And then exactly one year later, again on Sep 11th, I moved to NYC. Easy to remember? Or impossible to forget? And that’s not the only thing that made headlines on this Sep. 11th…Serena’s rant at the US Open finals was another news maker. And it was the season opener… Read more >
