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 [...]

New pup in my life

This afternoon I took advantage of the goat cheese we have in the fridge and made myself some cheese, fig jam, and crackers for a snack:

This is my new favorite thing ever.
In other news, today marks the second time that someone has asked me if Jack is a dingo.  I don’t understand this.  People don’t [...]

Baffled

I don’t understand tofu.  I try and I try and I try, but I just can’t get it right.
Tonight, I tried the freezer method, which I thought was finally going to be the answer to all of my tofu questions.  You drain it, freeze it, defrost it, then squeeze the water out again.
It was a [...]

Plantains are not filling

So last night before the movie we went to Coffee Shop, which, in my opinion, falls into the category of Restaurants That Are Popular For No Reason.
They hardly have any vegetarian options in the first place, but last night they were out of veggie burgers. Which means I ate about a fourth of a [...]

Sundays make me sad

I can’t believe tomorrow is Monday.  Blah.
So I woke up with a massive hangover from last night…too many vodka sodas, birthday shots…yikes.  This always leads to fourth meal, but Chris said that during the cab ride home, I announced that I was going “straight to bed.”  Normally I just say I’m not going to have [...]

Quickie

Couple of snacks:

Yes, more grapes.

The fig jam with some whole wheat pretzels.  Multiply this by two.  I never should have started, but I was hungry and I’m not sure when I’m going to eat dinner.  I’m going to a gallery crawl on the LES tonight.  I much prefer bar crawls, but…

Heaven

Sorry for the little hiatus there.  It’s been like a thousand degrees here everyday and I’ve been too busy whining to post.
However, I would say that this pretty much sums up my eating this weekend:

I have been putting this mainly on pretzels and my fingers.  I’m pretty sure that’s how it was meant to be [...]

The future is in my hands

Friday afternoons are my favorite.  I love them.  I would kiss them if I could.  They make me feel like I have a world of opportunity ahead of me.  Or, you know, at least two whole days of doing whatever the hell I want.
Anyway, I spent most of this Friday eating figs.

A random this morning [...]

Goat cheese makes everything taste good

No surprise here:

I had seven, because I had three earlier and that makes ten, which sounded like a nice, round number to me.
For dinner I made this zucchini and goat cheese pasta:

I was a little nervous because the recipe called for more salt than I’ve ever used in my life, and also because I cut [...]
