I shop at a lot of grocery stores. I have visited Safeway, QFC, Trader Joe’s, PCC Natural Market, Whole Foods, and Metropolitan Market in the last 6 months. Oddly enough, most of the stores I often frequent only have about 5 Larabar flavors: peanut butter cookie, apple pie, cashew cookie, cherry pie, and one of [...]

Sun on my window

The Pacific NW is capricious; I woke up to darkness, then there was a blue sky with lovely, lovely sunlight, and then BAM! We are back to cloudy skies. I was really happy that it was sunny today; it has been a while since we’re had a lot of sun.
It feels like school has accelerated [...]

My lunch disappeared yesterday. Presto chango. I ended up eating various snack bars that had accumulated in my bag instead of the healthy, veggie-heavy lunch I packed yesterday morning.

It’s the annual “Choose MY Program” insanity in all the health magazines and all over the infomercials/commercials. None has really interested [...]
