Indian food

Blood orange mimosas

Lovely ladies

Dessert breakfast pancake. {I was actually so full from breakfast yesterday that I actually skipped dinner last night. Probably a first for me ;)!}

weekday casual | holiday party no. 1

Last night the hubs and I attended the holiday party held by our apartment peeps.


I will be the first to admit our sole purpose going was to eat holiday food and desserts.

We are participating in a yoga workshop with some yoga peeps this weekend. So so excited about it. Have a great one!

This has been the time of the month when I have been eating everything in sight and feeling a bit blah. We've been a bit lenient on our gluten-free part of our diet and I think this is contributing to the blah feeling. Today is a new month and goodbye to gluten, again.

I have found that I like to photograph things I eat. It will be fun to see how things change over the years.


My typical breakfast consists of oatmeal, bananas and almond milk.


Soup in a bread bowl is great for a rainy day.


Post-practice coconuts are the best.


Gelato. Yums.


Not sure how it happens, but even after a full cart of groceries, sometimes it feels like we have nothing to eat!


My first attempt at Thai tofu coconut curry last night. It was ok, but missing something. Need to tweak the recipe a bit.

What did you eat last week?

Week in photos

Things I want to remember from last week:


The $1 recession brownie at Barnaby's


That even though he is the big brother, he is still just a little one.


The two cutest little boys in the world.


Watching Project Runway is infinitely more fun with friends.


We love R&E.


I am lucky to have a hubs who will cook for me after a long day of work.


The Help is the best movie I have seen this year, hands down. Run, don't walk, to see it!

week in the life | saturday

I've been really bad about filling out the daily sheets. And I have been taking less and less photos everyday! Remembering to snap one photo everyday is much easier than remembering to snap photos all day!



And my evening outfit:

week in the life | friday

I seem to be taking less and less pictures as the week goes on. I am a creature of habit and tend to do the same things every day so sometimes it's hard to be creative!


I was so grateful today to have the hubs with me on the drive home; even more grateful that he drove (something that I think we both prefer!). I was also grateful that work wasn't very busy so I could take some snaps at the office! I was most grateful to be able to sleep in my own bed last night (which is why I slept in until 7 this morning!).

And of course no road trip is complete without a stop to Dairy Queen for a blizzard! These were not the shoes I wore to the office but otherwise everything else is the same.
