Some days I do not mind having dinner at work. Especially when I plan ahead… but let’s rewind a bit, I’ll get to dinner in a moment. I got to work a few minutes before 11 o’clock this morning. Ugh. So late. There was a lot of traffic, a lot of rain, and unfortunately a…… Continue reading Dinner at work…
… Soup. I had so many ideas for soup today. Carrot ginger soup. Bittman’s pasta fagioli. Julia’s boeuf bourguignon. My own butternut squash soup. Jenna’s white chicken chili. My mom’s french onion soup. I needed soup for dinner tonight. On the train home tonight I decided to make chicken noodle soup. I know, compared to what I…… Continue reading What is the cure for another rainy day?
Well, there is nothing like a fourteen plus hour day for your first day back in the office. No, I’m not kidding. I left my house at 6:10 this morning and got back home at 8:20 tonight. No, I did not go to the gym. I got home from work at 8:20 tonight. I quickly…… Continue reading Long Day…

Yesterday AFM and I went around the area to assess the damage from Irene. I cannot believe how devastated some of the areas of upstate New York are… we are lucky that we opted to stay in New York – originally we had planned to go to Vermont, and the damage there is much worse.…… Continue reading The Vacation Continues…
Hey everyone. So, I am officially on vacation for the next several days. Vacation started at 3:20 PM on Friday. Yesterday AFM and I spent the day getting ready for hurricane Irene. One thing I love about upstate New York is that there are so many farmer’s markets. We hit up a great market yesterday…… Continue reading I am on vacation… with Irene

An actual photo of one of my favorite sandwiches of all time… The Rachel: Yes. Last night one of…… Continue reading The Rachel…
…was better than the beginning of my day. I worked a little later than normal today, but still had enough time to get a five mile run in after work. I definitely think that the jelly beans helped me get through my post-work run. 🙂 Thank you, NR! As I was driving to the gym,…… Continue reading The rest of the day…
