I never knew that feet could hurt as much as mine do. I really don’t want to be a grumbler – but holy cow, my throbbing feet are just about the worst part of my pregnancy thus far. (Minus the throwing up for 3 months.) I think I’m going to start sitting at my desk … Continue reading »

Back to Business
Surprisingly, the 4:30am alarm wasn’t too painful. Granted, my first thought was that I had accidentally set it wrong to go off in the middle of the night, but once I got up and started moving, all was well. After a good workout, I came home to have a two-part breakfast. Juice! Celery, lime, carrot, … Continue reading »
Pancake Success
I woke up yesterday morning with a hankering for pancakes. However, my belly doesn’t really like anything with gluten or dairy in it (I still eat it sometimes…but it’s never really worth it), so I set about to make a gluten-free vegan version of my old favorites. I was surprisingly delighted with the result. They … Continue reading »
Day Trip
I took a little day trip to Colorado Springs to see my best friend and my family today. Before I left, I recreated the color of the gorgeous sunrise this morning in the form of juice.

Unfortunately, like Tuesday, … Continue reading »

Wednesdays seem to drag on…no? The longest day of the week, followed by my favorite day of the week tomorrow! I started off this long day with a brisk walk (for the doggie’s sake), and a batch of chocolate protein + almond butter. I also took a green monster to school and drank it around … Continue reading »
Applesauce and Red Pens
This morning, after a nice walk with the Punk, I had a very satisfying breakfast. Oats in a very empty almond butter jar. I’m not even sure there was any almond butter in there – I cleaned that sucker out pretty well with a spoon earlier this week. These oats were pure mush. I cooked … Continue reading »
