Just one of those days…

…when nothing goes right! Grr…here’s to the afternoon getting better. I think what I’m missing these days is some perspective - what is important and what’s not important? I think people might spend their whole lives trying to figure that out. I’m not talking about the big ones - family, friends, [...]

Happy Birthday Eva!

Today is Ms. Eva’s birthday.  Eva was my first great friend in NYC.  We lived together for a year (2007) and almost killed each other.  Now we’re just good friends (and the murder threats are down to a minimum).  Today, Eva turns 26.  Last year, for her 25th birthday, we decided she was Old.  Now [...]

Creature of Habit

Morning! Feeling good and strong today.  Plus wearing pink pants, which as we all know, makes for a better day.  I woke up this morning starving - and headed on auto-pilot to the pound cake.  I had a snack of 1/2 slice worth of crumbles (unpictured).  Snack was 103 calories, 14g carbs, 4g fat, and [...]

Back to Life, Back to Reality

Ahhh, feels so nice to be back in my routine! I went to bed at 10:30 PM last night - totally unheard of for me. I thought that I would spring out of bed at 7 AM for my workout, but my body had other ideas. I slept in til the usual [...]

Calm Before the Storm

Hey all. Today is my last normal day before the craziness of this weekend starts. We have a bunch of different events to attend, so it’s going to be more action-packed than relaxing. I don’t know about you guys but I find such comfort in my daily routine. Especially since now [...]

Tuesday Already

Woohoo!  Love Monday holidays - they make the week fly by.  Peter’s 5th college reunion is the weekend, so we have a bunch of fun events coming up.  Hopefully between those two factors, this week should be a breeze.  This morning I had a quick and simple breakfast at work to get started with the [...]

Double Take

Hey all!  This morning was my company’s Breakfast Day, where the company buys everyone breakfast and we all sit around and chat (12 person company).  So that’s where I was - sorry for the late post!  Yesterday’s breakfast was so great, I had to repeat it today:

I also stole a little fruit from Breakfast Day:

All [...]

Organization Heaven

Swoon, I feel so organized this morning!  I haven’t even done anything specific, but I got up when I wanted to, I packed all the stuff I’ll need for the day (including lunch), I got to work on time, I’m wearing a put together outfit.  I’m feeling pretty good this AM!  The only way I’d [...]

Kate’s Bake Shop

Hey guys! Whew, I’ve had a long evening in the kitchen! I decided to make two types of cookie for my recipients: “You Got Your Peanut Butter in My Chocolate” Cookies from ED&BV, and Chewy Raspberry Cookies from Veganomicon. I used the basic recipes, except I subbed Cashew Macadamia Butter [...]

Almond Crusted Tilapia with Basalmic Asparagus

Tonight’s dinner was beyond delicious! There was a very silent 20 minutes where P and I both were engulfed in our food. But I’m getting ahead of myself…
I got home this afternoon and finally tackled my kitchen. I cannot wait until I have a dishwasher in my apartment - washing the same [...]
