It’s been awhile since I’ve posted something especially delicious. This has been partially because I’ve been going out to dinner many consecutive nights with Felicia, jetting around the country/world, or eating lots of pasta in preparation for my marathon. As a result, my meals, when I’ve made them, haven’t been especially groundbreaking. This week that has all changed. (And [...]

Things I Love: Chipotle
Posted in Dinner, tagged Chipotle, Dinner, Running, salsa on November 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
After asking Felicia about her favorite take-out food and hearing her response yesterday, I started getting a hankering for take-out last night. I ran nine miles after work, so it was already nearing 8pm when I left the gym. (Yes, Jane, I ran 9 miles on the tmill. Judge away). I knew exactly what I wanted [...]
Healthy Soup!

In high school, I was lucky enough to live near the Disney World of grocery stores, Stew Leonard’s. This place is ridiculous, I’m telling you. It has all sorts of wonderful produce and baked goods and super delicious prepared foods. One of my favorite treats from this grocery store mecca was called “Healthy Soup” (yup [...]

I woke up this morning in some pain from my slight muscle strain (?) issue after yesterday’s run, so I decided to take it easy and not work out. I think that it was a good move because I felt very few twinges of pain tonight. It was also nice because I was able to [...]
Perfect Pepper Pizza

(I love alliteration) A few months ago, I made a Mediterranean pepper salad of course from Smitten Kitchen, and love love loved the flavors of it. When I saw some mini sweet peppers at the farmer’s market this weekend, I wanted to try to make it again. When it was time for dinner, however, I [...]

It’s almost Friday!! I hope that everyone is super psyched for the weekend. I think we all deserve a little time off from work.
I feel like I mentioned the fact that I went to the Yankees game last night a million times, so now that I found my cord to connect my camera to the [...]

I hope that everyone has had a fabulous start to the week!
Tonight I am trying out a recipe that I got from the New York Times – Roasted Sweet Potato Salad With Black Beans and Chili Dressing. I actually got started cooking pretty late because I met a friend for a drink after work, but [...]
I Heart Veggies!!

I hope that everyone had a fantastic weekend! Mine was wonderful and super productive (minus posting on the blog – oops!). I hadn’t been grocery shopping in a long time, and Megan was in the same boat, so she suggested that we go to the farmers’ market and Trader Joe’s on Saturday. Well, it started [...]
If Grocery Shopping at Duane Reade Express Is Wrong…

Well then, I’m probably wrong. The problem is that I go through cycles at work where I work really late for about a week (and on the weekend) and then get a normal life for a week. When I am leaving work at 5 or 6, I’m pretty good about buying groceries, cooking healthy foods, making nice [...]
