Hello friends! It is so good to be back to blogging. The last few weeks have been non-stop, I’ve been working quite a few evenings, our weekends have been busy, and I just needed a bit of rest. I enjoyed my week away from the computer, but I’m so happy to be back! I’ve missed you all. Can’t [...]

A day of eats
March 24th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Breakfast
It isn’t that unusual for me to post all of my daily meals, but today I thought I’d post everything….meals, snacks, nibbles. When Heather began posting her Week of Eats, I started thinking more about the goal of my blog. Heather received over 100 comments about her daily food choices one day- too much, too little, [...]

Typical Thursday

Most days, my meals aren’t that exciting, but I still loving sharing that eating healthy can be done even with a crazy schedule like mine, and even with very little planning. Breakfast was Starbucks oats + coffee. Lunch was a salad from the hospital salad bar, enjoyed outside in the sun. Red shoes- made me [...]
Healthy Convenience Foods?
March 16th, 2010 · 9 Comments · Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch
Today’s meals were all about convenience. I have several go-to convenience meals that I reach for on busy, or lazy, days. I think I’m still having a hard time catching up from my lost hour. Aren’t we all? Breakfast was Starbucks oatmeal topped with a bit of brown sugar, nuts, and raw almond butter + coffee [...]
Best Breakfast Ever

Sunday started with one of my favorite breakfasts ever. Kath’s Whipped Banana Oats topped with dark chocolate chips, blackberries, and 2 kinds of almond butter. Deelish. I follow Kath’s recipe exactly, except I don’t add the chia seeds. It turns out perfectly every time. After church, we went to lunch at the Smoky Mountain Brewery. [...]
Road Trip

Friday was a long day. Work was really good- really productive. I started with my favorite. I spent most of my day working on financial-type projects for my programs…totally not directly nutrition-related, but I’m learning to like the “business side” of my job more. Lunch was leftover salmon spinach salad + the juiciest red pear. Right after [...]
I’m back

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for your support and encouragement through the loss of my beloved Lucy. It has been a rough week and a half, but I am surviving and getting through each day, which is more than I expected. I feel a little older and maybe even a little stronger than I [...]
Something old and Something new

My breakfast and lunch were repeats of yesterday…if it isn’t broken…don’t fix it. Starbucks perfect oatmeal + almond butter + coffee. Leftover Greek chicken salad for lunch. After repeats for breakfast and lunch, I got inspired to try a new recipe for dinner. So, I stopped at EarthFare on the way home to pick up [...]
Melting….

This has been a fabulous Sunday so far…..Sleeping in….2 cups of amazing coffee….blueberry oat waffles + fresh mango. Deelish. I am loving my new waffle maker – thanks to my mother-in-law. After our late breakfast, I went for a nice walk around the neighborhood. It’s still cold, but the sun is shining and the snow [...]
Things I need to do more often
January 23rd, 2010 · 4 Comments · Breakfast, Lunch
Slow Down and Breathe. Do you ever get going so fast that you don’t know how to slow down even when you have time? I’ve been that way lately and I don’t like it. One of my new goals is to slow down and stop to smell the roses. This morning, I had to go [...]
