Switching it up

After a particularly ridiculous incident yesterday, I decided that I should probably stop dousing my cottage cheese in raisins and honey and pretending that it’s healthy. I mean, raisins and honey are healthy, but you know.  It was getting to be a little much on a daily basis.
I’ve seen some people eat it on things [...]

Corn, two ways

First of all, can I just say – popcorn and chocolate chips!!!  Seriously.  I mean that triple exclamation point from the bottom of my heart.  I had no idea what I was missing.

Mix a single serving bag of popcorn (I used Trader Joe’s) with a tablespoon or so of chocolate chips. Obviously, I am not [...]

Hello, Monday

Another Sunday night…blah!  That’s what I think about that.
Here’s the weekend eats:
On Friday, I didn’t get to post again because I ran out of time before I had to meet Chris for the movie.  But for lunch, I had some more of that Trader Joe’s vegan black bean soup mixed with some refried beans:

This is [...]

Worse blogger

Yikes.
Okay, so yesterday kind of got away from me…but I do have some pictures.  Afternoon snack was cottage cheese:

That’s the Trader Joe’s cereal that Chris buys.  I think it’s called Raisin Clusters or something? I don’t know, I am all out of plain raisins.  Sad.
And then, I had to run into this organic store by [...]

Preparation

I knew that my spinning class was going to be extra hard today because it was this woman’s birthday and last week the instructor said she was going to make a “special” class for her.  In an effort to not wind up spread eagle on the floor next to my bike after being instructed to [...]

Tongue tied

Like many others, my job often involves speaking.  I have to call people, talk to them, ask them questions, pretend I know things, and generally act like a normal human being.  This is all well and good.  I know how to talk and what not.  The problem is leaving a voice mail.
I can’t do it.  [...]

Top of the muffin to you!

One of the best Seinfeld episodes ever.  On right now.  Why are you still reading this?
Anyway, lots of snacks today.  I was hungry.
Pear this morning:

I am usually skeptical of Trader Joe’s pears, but these are actually good.
Grapes:

Not frozen.  Let me ask you a question – red or green?  Chris says red.  I think I prefer [...]

Life changing

The biggest thing EVER happened this weekend – and yes, I do mean EVER, caps and italics.
Trader Joe’s opened its new location in Brooklyn.  This means that I no longer have to lug five million bags home from Union Square after battling a hundred people for $1.69 peanut butter and waiting in the longest line [...]

The best time of year

The Office is back!  The Office is back!  The Office is back!
All is right with the world.  And, I saw a guy throw a sandwich in a mail drop box this morning, so that was kind of cool.  It was a bacon, egg and cheese.
Which, conveniently enough, segues nicely into food.  For a “snack” today, [...]

Cheese makes everything better

The circumstances of my night last night demanded a grilled cheese for lunch today:

With tomato.  This is my new favorite thing.  I mean, I’ve always loved grilled cheese, but my love is now reinvigorated.  I would have enjoyed this with some Sun Chips, but apparently someone – not me, surprisingly – had some drunk munchies [...]
