It’s Tuesday night, and I have a million things to do before I head back to NYC for the summer tomorrow. Oy. So I’m just going to say thank you Jenn, for giving me a reason to keep blogging in the middle of the week, when I might otherwise not. Now, food:
[[NOT all from one day, just some recent meals and such]]
Brunch at Orange with two of my lovely friends! I love this place for brunch – so creative, and always delicious. They even serve orange flavored coffee! I got the vegetarian breakfast burrito with guacamole instead of sour cream and cheese. Mmm!
That night we went out to dinner for Dad’s Birthday! He chose sushi, at Sai cafe. Good thing I love sushi 
Started with his favorite unfiltered sake.
seaweed (and cucumber) salad for me.
tako sansai (octopus, mountain veggies, cucumber, etc)
hamachi jalapeno sashimi
salmon gone wild sashimi
and our only maki – spicy white tuna crunch. have I mentioned that I love sushi?
I haven’t been very good at taking pictures of my eats lately, so here are a few recent snapshots from instagram:
green juice from Peeled (beet color overpowers green…)
sandwich day! my favorite hummus (with lettuce added) and cucumber on sprouted wheat. raw veggies and mustard on the side.
productivity snacks! I stopped into starbucks for a couple of hours today to get some things done, and realized I had some money on my starbucks card from months ago. That’s right – I went the full five months abroad without Starbucks! Honestly I didn’t miss it at all – but it’s a nice treat now and then. Protein bistro box and iced decaf with soy milk. Thank you, Starbucks for a delicious healthy snack.
Oh, and here’s how my hair actually looks now – naturally, not straightened. So short! (and I’m loving it)
Are you a Starbucks fan? What do you love/hate there?
What was your favorite healthy snack today?

I love your hair cut girl. I am always afraid of getting a hair cut because my hair is also super curly and I feel like running will explode that look haha. Anyways-sushi is my favorite. End of story.

I don’t have starbucks very often, but usually when I do go I am paying for the atmosphere. I don’t find there drinks worth the money haha. I’ve never tried there food/snack items though!
