I have been putting EVERY effort into helping my body heal, so after several consecutive days of working, I was really looking forward to sleeping in and skipping the gym. I slothed it up on the couch all day long. I kid you not. ALL.DAY.LONG. What goes with laziness? TV and grub. Enter DVR and a marathon of breakfasts. My toast with Smart Balance light (it’s vegan, yo) didn’t hold me over very long, so an hour later I opted for a bowl of granola to supplement my brekkie (and a super overflowing cup of… Read more >

I hereby dedicate this post to everyone who has de-lurked lately. I LOVE hearing from you all, and it makes me so happy to know that you get ideas from my blog. That said, several peeps have been asking for tips on packing lunches. Well, I aim to please, so here’s a post packed with some of my latest eats that I have brought to work.

I haven’t been noshing on very many blog-worthy eats lately, so here’s a recap of some past products I have tried (some adored). Dessert HUMMUS!?! Yes, friends, yes, I did. The Original Crazy Camel Dessert Hummus has struck gold with this delish treat. In the words of my Brookie boo Y.B. With apples – yum. With Dave’s Killer Bread – yummer. Straight up with a spoon… Read more >

Question: In the current economy, how do you avoid associating food with $? I can’t help but feel like NOT finishing my meal is the exact same thing as wasting money. Like, unless I polish off my plate, I’m basically throwing my hard earned cash down the drain. Jillian once mentioned she had this problem, but her solution wasn’t realistic in my opinion. I’m not talking about portions served to me while dining out. In my opinion, going to nice restaurants is a luxury and is all about the experience (so the high(er) prices are… Read more >

I loved hearing about all your PM routines! Such planners we all are. Well, most of us… I have to say, it’s a little reassuring to know there are other freaks out there just like me. As I said before, I was kinda behind getting my ducks in a row on Thursday night. As a result, I expended minimal energy making this lunch (probably a 2 out of 10 on the effort scale). Basically, I just kept adding more snacks in the hopes that the next day there would be at least something I wanted… Read more >
