Go, Go, Go!

Helloooo! One of these days I’ll get back to a routine of posting at a decent hour (hours? I miss multiple daily postings!), but for now, work and school take precedence, and lately those two have been keeping me on the go, go, go! For now I’ll continue posting late and just hope y’all continue…

Chicken Nuggets!

I ate a chicken nugget!! Ok, not really. Gardein makes faux-meat products that I’ve heard a lot of hype about. Before leaving Orlando yesterday we stopped by Whole Foods, and sure enough they had the seven grain crispy tenders that I had heard so much about. I topped a bed of spinach with the crispy…

Tropical Mint Smoothie

Good morning! Wow, what a whirlwind of a weekend! Life has been going nonstop lately, and it looks like it’s going to continue at least one more week! At least it makes for really good sleep at night. As soon as we got back to Gainesville last night, I immediately tore into the Thai young…

Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24: Seven Course International Affair Gone Vegan!

Food by Color

Remember those paint by number projects you used to do when you were a kid? I loved those (and all other crafts)! Sometimes  I look at my food and think I kind of  eat like that. You start with a fresh, blank canvas (or plate) and fill different sections with different colors. The great thing…

Vegan Meaty Tacos

Meat substitutes are an interesting topic for vegans. Some prefer to use a lot of vegan meat substitutes (especially new vegans) while others tend to shun processed meat substitutes, as well as soy products. While the processed "meat" products are never my go-to protein source, and I try to not focus on soy as my…

Hot Off the Press

Good afternoon! Thanks for the great comments and discussion on yesterday’s post about "Does Size Really Matter?" Some great thoughts were voiced! And, as always, thanks for keeping the discussion honest and classy. I kept breakfast rather neutral today, because I still felt a little off from yesterday (I felt pretty under the weather all…

Does Size Really Matter?

The other day I was at Target and was perusing through the clearance racks when I found a cute dress and pulled it off the rack to see it up close. As soon as I looked at it alone I dismissed it as too big, but then got confused because I saw that it was…

Crazy Monday

Yeesh, what a Monday! So, like I mentioned in last week’s P90X recap post, I’m switching things up a little bit. I’m trying to shoot towards having small meals throughout the day, as well as the fact that I’m adding in the Couch to 5k program for an extra 20 minutes of cardio three times…
