Friday was a long 10 hour work day followed by a friend's concert in the evening. It is now Saturday morning, and while I have two days of office-free time I am hardly sitting around twiddling my thumbs. On top of seeing friends and enjoying the San Francisco summer festivities, I have to run errands to prepare …
Two Breakfasts
Being on time for my 8am office job really means I have to be there between 7am and 8am. I tend to arrive around 7:30am and I like to eat something for breakfast before I leave the apartment, so that means I eat a meal around 6:30am. Yesterday's breakfast #1 was egg whites and nutritional …
There are 31 this month
Yes, today is May 31st and it is the last day of the month. Where does the time go? The first week of this month I was still in the non-profit world, spending my days taking a bus downtown to bring home the bacon. Now I work in the toy industry and start my days …
WIAW – blast from the past
Based on the blog title and catch phrase it is clear that I love almond milk. While this obsession is based on taste, it is not purely voluntary, as dairy does not agree with my intestines. Even avoiding said foe does not always keep my stomach at bay and yesterday I felt the wrath of …
Memories from Memorial Day

Wine Country Day Trip
With this map as our guide and our taste buds as our motivation we explored Napa for the day. Dave navigated in and out of fields of grapes to get us to various wineries and we enjoyed every sip, swish and swirl. With this gourmet playground only an hour drive from our apartment we are …
The Holiday Spirit
It's not every day that your co-worker comes in waving her finger with an engagement ring on it! After the announcement of a new fiance in the office everyone was on a high - especially because it was a Friday before a 3 day weekend. Friday was definitely a day of treating one's self to …
It’s not delivery, it’s d’jordan
The first half of the day consisted of lots of egg whites. Breakfast was a microwaved protein bowl and lunch was veggies and lettuce with Trader Joe's Egg White Salad on top (Notice the Costco box of almond milk under the table) I love that it's so light out in the evenings so I can …
It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood
My new office is in a completely different part of the city, and while I miss my last downtown office location, the Mission is another great area of San Francisco to get to know. On my break I went for a nice long walk, meandering in and out of side streets, when I happened upon …
