Rice Yogurt?

June 3, 2009

I have really been going out on limbs in regards to new foods lately. Since I’m not convinced that dairy is the best thing for me, and I don’t particularly care for soy products, I’ve been trying various almond, coconut, and rice-derived alternatives. Blog Readers, meet Ricera Rice Yogurt. Ricera Rice Yogurt, meet Blog Readers.

Costume Change: From Breakfast Puff to Breakfast Cake!

May 21, 2009

Unfortunately, Sunday’s Brunch Bunch Breakfast Puffs got stale after a few days. Rather than being wasteful, I remixed the breakfast puffs into delicious breakfast cakes! The benefit is that the new and improved cakes are much more nutritionally sound than the original puffs, while still maintaining their original yum-factor.

Oh, Kitchen! **sigh**

May 16, 2009

In case you missed it the other 2,387 times that I have mentioned, MY KITCHEN IS SMALL. I’m still trying to figure something out. How in the world am I going to fit any more food or appliances on this tiny little piece of counter space?

Fun Food Friday

May 15, 2009

Today, the focus of Fun Food Friday is on snacks. Why? Because I like snacks, and I still have granola bars on the brain. Also, because I just consumed an entire bucket full of spinach and ricotta ravioli for lunch (dinner leftovers), and the only thing that I ever want to to do after eating 5,928 grams of carbs is eat chocolate and take a nap. Snack research is my only hope. Otherwise, I will surely be found snoring and drooling on my bank statements.

Thoughtful Thursday

May 14, 2009

My personality is such that I am always (always) consumed by some persistent thought. I’m slightly obsessive. I’m one of those people who gets an idea in her large, melon-sized head, and I won’t let it go until I have done either of the following: a) failed, or b) succeeded.

Thoughtful Thursday

May 7, 2009

I rubbed, I stretched, I squatted. No stretch or rub or squat was good enough. I just could not loosen the thing up. After 10-12 hours of this, I reach a point where I am too frustrated to even deal with myself. It makes me feel like I am broken, and I abhor feeling broken (vulnerable, hurt, frail, damaged, defective, injured).

May Core Belief Challenge

April 30, 2009

We all have them. Those evil thoughts that hide in the depths of ourselves. They cripple us, but we never realize it until it’s too late. They’re never true, but we always believe them. These thoughts could be related to success, love, self-worth, control, security, or any combination of the above.
