When It Rains…

…I bake. Oh, that’s not how the saying goes? Well, that’s definitely how it went this weekend. If you’ve not heard, the skies that hover above NYC—the same ones that just a day before had begun to resemble the likes of springtime—decided to open up wide and bestow a violent deluge upon its city. Blackouts [...]

The Happiest Place On Earth

Why, hello there, amigas! As badly as I’d like to take this chica’s tweetvice (that’d be advice obtained via Twitter) and resume blogging as though I’d never left, I have this moral inkling that a one-and-a-half month hiatus warrants an explanation. So here goes nada: Over the past month and a half, I could not [...]

Vegan Por Un Día

I figure you’ve all seen a whole lot of Vegan For a Day, so I switched my title up with a little español. Shocker, I know. Before I get to jueves, tengo una pregunta: Have you entered my Nutridel giveaway? No? Probablemente you should do that today. Porque those galletas are DELISH. And also FREE! [...]

The Recap That Wasn’t

It’s been a long time; I shouldn’t have left you. One week completely removed from el mundo de los blogs has felt like an eternity. I know that sounds a bit dramatic—but I feel SO out of the loop. Needless to say, estoy muy feliz to be back. I kid you not; opening Windows Live [...]

The One Where I Didn’t Snack

Anyone know which 90s sitcom influenced this post’s title? If not, I’ll leave you hanging ‘til my weekend recap. But I have a feeling most of you will get the whole “the one” part. But, yea, yesterday I didn’t snack. At all. This is muy muy raro for me because I always graze between meals. [...]

Overheard in Starbucks…

I almost never wake up hungry. I think this is because I’m not naturally a breakfast person. I suppose my allegiant consumption of oats and/or yogurt messes every morning would suggest otherwise. But, I’m actually an amateur breakfast aficionada. Throughout high school I was an avid breakfast skipper; in college I progressed to a light [...]

Sol y Café

I feel like you all speak Spanish by now. But, in case you’ve not acquired full fluency, that’s sun and coffee. Both of which—when enjoyed in excess—make me exceptionally happy and hyper. Both yesterday and today have involved mucho sol y café. Today’s 70° weather trumps yesterday’s 65°—and has also made me even more predisposed [...]

Tehehehini

I’ll get to that horribly cheesy title in a little—but, in the mean time, I’m sure you can guess what sesame-derived ingredient made its way into my eats yesterday. First, I wanted to thank you for all of the feedback on my first review! I can’t wait to do more because, if it’s not apparent, [...]

Oh, Dairy’s Bad for Illness?

This morning’s wake-up call was más banging and más música. Construction song of the day: Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing”. Again, this lulled any animosity I’d usually feel toward an unsolicited early morning alarm because (1) that song innately sends out feel-good vibes and (2) it now reminds me of the Glee version. And, Glee. Oh, [...]

Kitchen-Free Is the Way to Be

Uh, not really—but, so far, eating is not taking a beating! This morning I awoke to lots of banging. (I don’t have to say it, do I?) I was initially pretty choleric—and bitter towards the construction workers making all the noise—because it was 7 a.m., and I’d slept for approximately 4 hours. Insomnia is a [...]
