Snow day! Hopefully the last of the year! 11:16 AM: I made it downstairs shortly after 11 (as you may recall, I work from bed as long as humanly possible on work from home days), and decided to treat myself to a latte instead of my normal coffee (I guess a latte seems more indulgent … Continue reading Wednesday, March 21, 2018
9:51 AM: Apple cinnamon win today! Apple cinna-win! 12:01 PM: Gross-looking lunch alert! Gross-looking lunch alert! Like I said, this stuff reheats well...but looks disgusting (as do most of my lunches, apparently). I forgot too late how unappealing heated-up avocado is, so I didn't end up eating that part...what a tragic waste. 1:39 PM: A … Continue reading Tuesday, March 20, 2018
9:49 AM: Healthier eating started today, so no potatoes with breakfast. The thought of eating those crappy scrambled eggs by themselves bummed me out though, so I grabbed some fruit to go with (this was a mixture of grapes, honeydew, pineapple, raspberries, and blackberries). I've also been drinking my coffee darker because I bought a … Continue reading Monday, March 19, 2018
9:49 AM: Cholula is still MIA. I'm thinking about starting a protest. Thoughts and prayers, please. 1:00 PM: I was a little nervous about reheating this salmon, but it was still delish! And it somehow didn't stink up the entire kitchen, which I was having a mild panic attack about. 2:06 PM: We hadn't done … Continue reading Thursday, March 15, 2018
My favorite recipes tend to be those that tow the line between healthy and indulgent. Too healthy, I get bored; only indulgent, I feel gross. Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, but I do appreciate a nice balancing act. This meal is a great example: simply roasted salmon atop a bed of sauteed … Continue reading Salmon with Cheesy Mashed White Beans & Kale
9:48 AM: Back to the old standby today. 11:51 AM: I definitely get hungry earlier when I eat oatmeal rather than eggs...which seems odd, because oatmeal is so filling. Maybe it's the sugar. Again, I'm sorry for my vomit-looking lunch. 3:00 PM: WHAT?! A CLEMENTINE?! I know, you guys...I'm full of surprises. 4:40 PM: Two … Continue reading Wednesday, March 14, 2018
9:50 AM: The office cafe had this delicious looking "apple cobbler" this morning, so obviously I went for it. I added a scoop of vanilla yogurt to make it feel more acceptable for breakfast (don't question my faulty logic here), and threw on a spoonful of granola for good measure. It was really more like … Continue reading Tuesday, March 13, 2018
9:39 AM: Typical Friday breakfast for me - since I had eaten oatmeal almost every day this week, I decided to switch things up and get eggs (and tater tots, because Friday). This was the start to a very quiet day - very much the opposite of last Friday. The rest of the local part … Continue reading Friday, March 9, 2018
9:52 AM: "Cinnamon caramel apple" my left toe. 12:13 PM: This looks less than appealing, but it's even better reheated. 3:44 PM: Whoops, forgot to take a pic before taking a bite. A sweet co-worker brought in cupcakes today, and who I am to turn him down? What am I, a monster? (Apparently, because I … Continue reading Thursday, March 9, 2018
Snow day! I worked from home today, which means some blessed variety in my daily meals. 11:56 AM: When I work from home, I tend to work from my bed until the very last second possible (meaning, my laptop is about to die or I'm about to pass out from hunger). Today was no exception, … Continue reading Wednesday, March 8, 2018
