Yesterday’s plan was ambitious, but seemingly doable. Grocery store, make cupcakes, go to gym, fill and frost cupcakes, go to housewarming party. Considering this was to all happen within a 2-3 mile radius of my house, it didn’t seem crazy.
I probably had one of my clumsiest days in the kitchen…ever. I’m a decent cook and [...]
Ok, here’s another confession. I’m currently reading “The Time Traveler’s Wife”…and really enjoying it. I know that’s not earth shattering, but I’m always slightly embarrassed to publicly read anything considered “chick lit,” especially if it’s stamped with big old “Now a Major Motion Picture!” starburst. But, it was recommended by a couple friends whose opinions [...]
It’s probably the most un-blogworthy part of my day, but I feel the need to tell you that I ate a Twix bar. There, I said it. I’ve started reading more and more food blogs and admiring all the beautifully lit portraits of organic produce and vegetable sandwiches on whole grain bread, and there aren’t [...]
I’m happy to report that I think I really did make a good use of my weekend. A good balance of yummy, high quality whole foods, exercise, necessary housework and quality time with my boyfriend (I’m working on a good blog name for him, as “boyfriend” seems so silly at this point).
As I’ve mentioned, I’m [...]
Let’s talk about hair. We all have different amounts of it in different places. Since this blog is all about being honest I’ll start. I’ve been getting my eyebrows waxed since I was 15, thank you mom. I started using creme on my lip a few years ago because it’s cheaper than waxing and I [...]

Who out there can pick up a health magazine or read a newspaper without someone telling them to incorporate wild alaskan salmon into their diet? Apparently, it is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids – Dr. Weil can tell you all about that here. And, yes, it really is quite delicious…but, have you ever [...]
My general mood today is of a specific type of “bad.” I’m guessing a lot of it has to do with PMS, but there are definitely a few things about my life that are bugging me right now, and I’ve got that feeling of hopelessness. Like I just need to accept certain things because there’s [...]
I have new motivation to lose this last bit of weight. Apparently now in my sleep I breathe so heavily that I sound like Darth Vadar. I don’t know if it’s the size of The Girls or just my body mass in general but this is a problem that was never brought to [...]

Anyone else feeling poor these days?
After a couple of expensive social obligations this past week, an enthusiastic trip to Origins and Sephora, and (oh yeah, that’s right…) my $89 metrocard expiring today, my bank account is officially running on fumes. Eating out or ordering in was out of the question tonight, and I didn’t even [...]

I was at a meeting yesterday where a women who pushes Oober Vitamins (is that really a company? If not I call dibs) on people was asking to referrals to people who drink coffee. We all sat there with our free large coffees that we get with the meeting looking suddenly guilt stricken. Did she [...]
