Free Bread!

October 29, 2009

Sorry about my lack of post last night; it was a busy day and I was sleepy!  So here’s a quick recap.  The more exciting stuff is further down Yesterday’s Eats: I was super-hungry all day, and I’m not quite sure why… Granola, berries, and peach Chobani AB & Preserves on a Sandwich Thins (smushed [...]

Chai Brussels Sprouts

October 25, 2009

I couldn’t decide what I wanted to eat tonight.  So I ate a little bit of everything.  Problem solved. I’ve been seriously lacking in the fruits and veggies department lately.  This is highly unusual for me, so I was craving all kinds of produce at dinner. An apple with peanut butter. Kale Chips. Chai Tea [...]

Acorn Squash & Apple Pizza

Acorn Squash Stew

October 7, 2009

Good morning everyone!  Since I have TONS of studying to do, and get more done at Starbucks than at home, I have deemed today “Starbucks Friday Wednesday.” I have a feeling that by Friday I’m going to be sick of Starbucks after spending so much time studying here this week! I started this morning off [...]

Literacy Network 5K

October 4, 2009

Clearly, I did not refuel properly after yesterday’s ride.  According to various websites, I burned somewhere between 2100 and 2500 calories yesterday, but probably only ate 2200 all day.  As a result, I woke up absolutely starving this morning.  The lesson in this:  Eat more on long ride days! Before today’s 5K, I went with [...]

October 2, 2009

I think I’m ready for this weekend’s bike ride and run!  It is supposed to be cold and raining during the ride tomorrow, but I have moisture-wicking tights, long sleeves and a headband to keep me warm.  And a dry set of clothes will be waiting for me in the car! Today’s lunch: Apple, Almond [...]

A Nature’s Path Hemp Plus waffle, toasted and topped with almond butter [...]
