I spent most of today outside, so my food pictures will be fewer than usual. But that’s a good thing. It means SUNSHINE! I woke up crazy early (thanks for that 6:55 am text Jess) and enjoyed some frothy java before heading to the gym. I like getting my workouts done early when the weather is awesome…plus Jess and I had an appointment at Jenny Yoo to get to. [insert 4 miles on the elliptical here] After the gym I showered, beautified, and chowed down the above brunch while trying not to get peanut butter… Read more >

Ok. I have been slacking FAR too much in the work out department. I have a freakin’ half marathon in a week! What am I doing to myself? I should be training, not watching the View working and pretending that’s a good enough reason to skip the gym. I woke up to sun, FINALLY. Made some java. Frothed some leche. Voila! Prepare to see an endless supply of bridal mags in the background of all my pics now…my future mother-in-law got me a year’s subscription 🙂 I was researching wedding locations all morning, and totally… Read more >

This morning I woke up to Kyle crawling into bed. “What time is it?” I asked…to which he replied “You have to get up in 10 minutes.” WHAT!? He was working on this deal until 5:05 AM, but guess what? IT’S DONE!!! And my STUD of a fiancé was the leader of the entire project. Sorry, I just had to brag a bit, now that I’m finally able to discuss it, and not sworn to SUPER secrecy. ANYways… New bread! Okay, maybe not new new, because I would never stray from my beloved Alvarado Street,… Read more >

I was so excited to get to sleep in today, until I woke up to my crazy co-worker calling me at the crack of dawn…there goes that. In her defense, she’s crazy in a good way…still, when I’m with her, I don’t know if I should (a) shoot her up with Haldol or (b) just further feed her kookiness with my own wacky ways. *FYI: Haldol is a med for schizo patients She works night shifts, so we don’t actually work directly with each other, hence the ridiculously early phone calls on my days off. … Read more >

I’m not sure why it’s a challenge…since I heart salads, and welcome all motivation to get creative in the mixed greens department. But hey, I’m not one to turn down something I can obviously succeed at a challenge. Back to the b-fast eats. A pile of toast with some Smart Balance light. Note the pre-photo nibbled corner. 😉 I need to go shopping, after living on live sprouted bread (ie Ezekiel, Alvarado street, etc) for so long, the regular whole wheat stuff just doesn’t cut it… Other AM yummies: vanilla soy yog and chai… Read more >
