It won’t stop raining 👿 Luckily I checked the weather forecast before going outside, so I remembered my umbrella! Otherwise I’d be very cold and wet in the studio! I tried out a new bread for lunch today – Arnold Natural Flax & Fiber. It was really good! Very nutty and soft! I had two […]

Pancake perfection – take two.
My attempt at making Cheese Danish Pancakes went MUCH better the second time around. Perhaps you recall this delicious disaster from a week ago. Well, with a little tweaking of the recipe and a higher burner temperature, the outcome today was much more pancake and much less “bread pudding” (aka mush!) 😉 Here’s my version […]
Almond Crusted Tilapia
I love the feeling I get when I create something based on what I think would taste good and then it actually does taste good! Tonight’s dinner was just that. I got the idea from the macadamia nut crusted halibut I had at Wildfire on Friday. Combine that with the jumbo-sized slivered almonds and tilapia […]
The Big Five
Openness. Conscientiousness. Extraversion. Agreeableness. Neuroticism. OCEAN. The Big Five personality traits in psychology, just in case you wanted to know 😉 I wasn’t feeling “open” to new experiences today, so I went with a lunch I knew would satisfy me. I decided on a Chik’n Cheddar Wrap with a Quorn cutlet, fat free cheddar cheese […]

Just right I used 1/2 cup oats, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, 1/4 cup unsweetened chocolate almond milk, flax, wheat germ and Bear Naked High Sierra trail mix. I think the key here was that […]
Study buddy.
I have a study buddy named Mug. Not funny, I know. But Mug has definitely been helping me get through my psychology of personality notes without losing my mind – HA! 🙂 So I went to Panera for dinner. Again. I think this reveals two things about my personality – or maybe just my psyche […]
Sleepy, sunny, Saturday.
I woke up early this morning to grab some breakfast with my dad before he headed to the airport. We went to Walker Bros. (ok, I know it seems like I go there a lot, but these past two weeks are the first times I’ve gone since January – crazy that it’s all happening at […]
‘Wild’ and stormy night.
So remember that storm I thought was coming? It definitely did – and my dad and I didn’t want to drive all the way to my grandparent’s house in the pouring rain (they live about an hour and a half away from me). So instead we decided to grab dinner at a place called Wildfire. […]
