My version of the Bowl of the Gods

You knows it’s serious when you can’t stop thinking about a smoothie bowl. I don’t even love smoothie bowls all that much. Sure, I like them, and it’s a way to shake up the breakfast routine, but what can be sooooo special about eating your smoothie like a soup? Apparently a lot of things. I’ve…

Cheesy Broccoli Egg Muffins

This little guy was the highlight of our night last night.ย  I saw the huge wagon of pumpkins outside Trader Joe’s, and tried to restrain myself because I feel like the overexcitement of pumpkin-flavored-everything taints the specialness of it. I felt like I should wait, similar to the Christmas decoration overload in October. I get…

Sad trombone

Guess who’s glasses-bound for 7 days? They’re about 10 years old, the wrong prescription, and were stretched out to the point where I had to make a little elastic head wrap to hold them onto my nugget. Since my eye was still crying and burning at around noon, I decided to call the eye doc.…

A little too lifelike

Look who scared the life out of me: At work, theyโ€™re always adding new decor, and that statue is newest addition around the corner by the water fountain. I thought it was a real, nekkid man and it frightened me a little. World beat was a lot of fun this morning. The drummers and my…
