First of all, Zac Brown Band put on the best.concert.ever. Honestly, it was one of the best shows I have ever been to. I might even go as far as to say the greatest. I had a blast with Meeker and his family, and it was 100% worth the drowsiness I experienced on Friday as … Continue reading »

Peas and Cookie Dough
What a Wednesday! It started off with very unusual eats, but I just went with my craving. If you guessed peas, egg whites and avocado, you are correct. I know it’s weird – you don’t even have to tell me. I was craving vegetables, but I only had about 5 minutes, so I pulled the … Continue reading »
Hodge Podge
Can you believe another weekend has come and gone?! It went quickly, and I didn’t take pictures of all my meals, but here are some highlights… Saturday morning – savory oats. One egg, ½ sweet potato and ½ avocado – dotted with siracha. I told Meeker this was my tribute to his Irish heritage. The … 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 »

The Napping House
Anyone out there remember that book? Well, my house is similar today… Goodness, they are all so cute – I can’t even handle it. We woke up to snow (sad panda), so I made some warm things for breakfast. A cup of coffee and pumpkin oats. In this bowl: ½ cup oats 1 cup milk … Continue reading »
Top Ten
I’ve been pretty bored with my own posts/eating lately – so I’m mixing it up. I present to you…my top 10 foods, and how I like to eat them. In order… #1: A is for Apple Maybe it’s because I’m a teacher. Maybe it’s just a fantastic coincidence. Either way, I love big, crispy, juicy … Continue reading »
Perks
Everyone knows that teachers don’t make a ton of money. But there are some major perks to the job. This morning, I received this from a student’s mom who reads my blog: That, my friends, is a bouquet of freshly sharpened pencils. How thoughtful, right? Jen, thank you so much for both your wonderful help … Continue reading »
No Cook Katie
Because I have been unable to eat dinner the last few nights, and my in-laws had us over for dinner tonight, I feel like it has been forever since I have made a meal. I really miss it. It is such an organized, methodical process for me – just what I like to do after a … Continue reading »
busy night
I forgot (and was reminded today) how stinkin’ busy the first few weeks of the school year are. Whew. It is 10pm, and I am finally sitting down. I love my job, but it is a lot (a lot) of work. For lunch, I had a remake (that wasn’t quite as good) of the salad … Continue reading »
