“We fit in way too well here…”

November 28, 2009

I always love the weekends following holidays, especially after Thanksgiving. It’s the start of a really exciting month…and most importantly, the end of the school semester! In just two weeks I’ll be home for good, basking in the glory of a month off from school. I’ve been using the past week and this weekend to [...]

Everything But Rice

October 15, 2009

Oh, I’m good. Really good.
 
Tonight I made something delicious in the rice cooker. Nope, not rice. A stir-fry, with a new ingredient:

I zapped the sweet potato (which was $0.45!) in the microwave while  I went to work on the veggies. I chopped up the chicken sausage first and let it sizzle for a bit [...]

Beans, Beans They’re Good for the Heart

May 18, 2009

It rained allllllll day here in Tampa which is actually my idea of a good day! I LOVE rain and always have. I find it so comforting and don’t feel as bad about being lazy all day
 
 
It’s also a good excuse to get in the kitchen! I have been wanting to make a bean [...]

Fast Food for One

May 4, 2009

Every Monday since the beginning of time (or at least it feels like it!) my brother and parents have gone to Moe’s for “Moe Monday.” I know, I know, it’s funny…but how could a 17 year-old boy resist a $5 burrito the size of his head!  Exactly.
 
Well, my body does NOT like Moe’s. At [...]

Yoga-fied

April 19, 2009

Wow. What a weekend. I’m officially exhausted but still happy that I am doing this program. I’m learning so much about yoga and myself. It’s really amazing!
 
Today we started at 8:30 with a flow class. But first, there were snacks. I woke up at 7:00 starving so my pre-yoga snack was a bit heavier. An [...]

Back so soon?

April 7, 2009

Yes, yes I am. I think I lasted all of 24 hours in Gainesville. I just can’t stay there! Luckily I only live two hours away and the drive is very easy.
 
I got home around 1:00pm just in time to make some lunch…
   

I scrambled one egg and two egg whites with yellow bell [...]

March 30, 2009

I spent my afternoon feverishly preparing for my Business Law exam tonight. The summer is approaching and my enthusiasm for school is waning. Can ya blame a girl? The weather is gorgeous and the sun deck at the house and pile of yoga books I have that are gathering dust are calling my name!
 
I took [...]

Adventures in Microwave Cooking

March 27, 2009

Managerial Economics tutoring is NOT my idea of a fun Friday afternoon. I actually debated even going! It was a close call there for a second but being the good little student that I am, I went. But not before I had some brain fuel:
A Cherry Banana Smoothie (best combo ever!):
And [...]

Why must all good things come to an end?

March 15, 2009

Well, it’s over! I really enjoyed my day. Around noon my mom and I set out for some errands. Just groceries and such. I wasn’t hungry for lunch before we left so I had a snack:

We got back around 3:00pm and I wanted something “lunch-ish” so I made a quick salad with some leftover [...]

Vegan Food is Not for Wimps.

March 12, 2009

So I had totally planned on making “Chili Burgers” for dinner tonight. I wanted to use a recipe for veggie burgers from my Moosewood Restaurant cookbook and fire up the oven that is newly fixed (yay!). But when it came time for dinner, my appetite just wasn’t there! Who would have thought that raw, vegan [...]
