Bitter Beer Face

Anyone remember these commercials?! Well, ALL DAY LONG, everything I ate tasted bitter! It actually started last night with the pasta, and I kept asking Meeker if he thought it tasted bitter, and he assured me that it didn’t. But I woke up this morning, and from bite one, everything was bitter – blech. It … Continue reading »

It’s a good news/bad news kind of situation…

The Office, anyone? The title comes from one of my favorite episodes when Michael hits the rabies-infected-Meredith with his car. Anyway…on to the eats. I started my day with some coffee out of my favorite mug. I also had 2 (really tiny…like the size of my fist) pumpkin pancakes and one slice of Ezekiel toast … Continue reading »

A Light Green Mash

A lazy day of snacking really made me crave some warm, comforting veggies. The above photo is one head of cauliflower and one head of broccoli – steamed, added to the food processor with some water, evoo, salt, curry powder, and celery seed. I ended up adding a bit of the best bbq sauce on … Continue reading »

Buried, again.

I woke up with a plan to workout, make pancakes and go to church. However, I also woke up to over a foot of snow – and I’m a big wimp when it comes to driving on icy roads – so I only got the first 2 completed. I just couldn’t get myself in the … Continue reading »

Healthy Comfort

After sleeping 4 hours on Thursday night, I slept for 12 hours last night. Wowza. I woke up feeling…groggy. Imagine that. My hunger didn’t wake up until a couple hours after my body did – and I didn’t get around to breakfasting until 11ish. By then, I was feeling fully awake, and I held nothing … Continue reading »

It doesn’t take much

Happy Tuesday! It’s almost over…but the best is yet to come. More on that later. This morning, my breakfast was nothing short of inspired. 2 toasted slices of Ezekiel bread, 2 egg whites, ½ avocado, salt and hot sauce. Sandwichified. This was the best way to start a day. Balanced, creamy, spicy, perfect. I could … Continue reading »

I like smushy

Made it through Monday! There were moments when I wasn’t sure… I started out with a doozy of a breakfast…cinnamon apple oats. 1/3 cup steel cut oats 1 cup water ½ apple Cinnamon 1 tbs. brown sugar Peanut butter 4 Alphabet cookies I just threw the first 5 ingredients in a saucepan and then got … Continue reading »

Sweet and Salty Saturday

I woke up and went for a nice, leasurily six mile run this morning. Running sometimes makes me crave salty foods, which leads me to crave sweet foods…and so went the rest of my day. After my run, I went on a cleaning frenzy, then realized I was starving…so I made a yogurt mess with … Continue reading »

Morning Delay

I don’t have to be at school until 7:45 this morning (in-service day). That is about 45 minutes later than my normal morning starts, but for some reason – I woke up at my normal 5am and did my routine (workout, shower, etc) exactly the same as any other day. The wonderful result of my … Continue reading »
