Sorry Sorry

Hey guys,
Sorry I didn’t get you guys a dinner post last night - I was just really tired. I’m having a tough time adjusting back to daily life - even though it was only a mini-vacay! Last night I got out of work fairly early. My dinner plans fell through, so I invited my [...]

Playing Catch-up

I’m so sorry, you guys - I don’t know how the past day has gotten away from me! I’ve just been working, working, working and I’m still behind! Even though today is a Summer Friday (work ends at 2), I think I’m going to stay later to get some work done!
Last night I [...]

Long Day

Today was a long day. I’m off to bed as soon as I finish this post. I picked up an afternoon snack at the bodega on the corner before I came home today:

Snack was 180 calories, 27g carbs, 5g fat, and 10g protein.
After I finished this I popped in some gum and got [...]

Silly Girl

Well, I went on schedule this evening to pick up the CSA stuff. We got a great load this week so I was pumped! Our pick up site is on 86th st, so since it was early, I thought I’d walk the mile to my apt, grab my mail and go home and [...]

Pressed for Lunch

Hey all,
My first intern interview went well - I have another in 20 min, so this will have to be quick!
For lunch, I went back to the Europa Cafe and tried their pressed sandwich, called a Pressata. I got Eggplant Parmagiana, which was eggplant, mozzarella, tomatoes and basil. It was good. [...]

Grilled Turnip and Radish Salad

A storm is thundering outside right now, but rain hasn’t started yet - this is my favorite type of weather - just before a storm!!  Any second now, the rain will crack and just soak everything. Yum! :)  For lunch today, I finally had enough energy to cook something - hooray!  I decided on a [...]

Tastless Lunch

I know this lunch must have tasted good, but I am so swollen and congested today that I can’t really taste anything. The textures were really great, though - so I guess that’s the best I can do right now. I made a sandwich on toasted Euro rye bread with the last [...]

CSA Bounty #2 plus Brunch

Hey guys, another long day of rest and relaxation yesterday. P was kind enough to pick up our second CSA batch last night:

From left to right, starting in the back: spinach, lettuce, salad mix, turnips, radishes and braising mix. We still have some stuff leftover from last week so I’m really going [...]

Lazy Days

Hey guys,
Yesterday was the first day since I started the blog that I’ve gone an entire day without posting.  I kept meaning to, but I was tired all day long and I figured I shouldn’t push myself to do things because I think I ’should’ or because I ‘have’ to. I read this article in [...]

Not Myself

Hey guys, I’ve been feeling kind of off all afternoon.  Weird appetite, really tired - just in a funk.  Quick post and then off to bed.
The CSA pickup was a breeze.  Unfortunately because of a cold spring, the first few weeks will be small this year.  Here’s this week’s bounty:

From left to right: radishes, broccoli [...]
