Just Because December’s Begun…

…does not mean Thanksgiving’s over.
I think my first-day-of-December eats sanction this statement.
I woke up with the always-gratifying feeling of knowing exactly what I wanted for breakfast.
“Pumpkin pie” addiction.
Delicioso as this may be, 1 egg white + 1/2 cup pumpkin + a dollop of greek yogurt does not equate to breakfast.
So I threw together a grande [...]

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 breakfast [...]

As always, I ate to my heart’s content
These edible discoveries I now shall vent

During this perfectly tempered NYC weekend, I discovered…

No complaints.
-When an Egg McMuffin [...]

Foodie’s First Foray Into…

FITNESS!
Just joshing, but I couldn’t resist the allure of alliteration…
Despite my love for food—actually, due to my love for food—my immersion into fitness occurred many light years ago. However, yesterday’s still unbeknownst-to-you foodie first does involve fitness. Since I know you’re such loyal readers who won’t scroll down to find out, I’ve decided to unveil [...]

Finally Fall

So I know it’s officially been fall for a few weeks now, but it didn’t fully feel fall-y to me until this morning. (P.S.—Please do let me know if my allegiance to alliteration annoys you…)
My fall awakening: This morning was the first in months that I woke up and didn’t have to make the usually [...]
