Exploring Pittsburgh
Greetings again from Pittsburgh. 🙂 Chris and I decided to see the sights (and eat good food) today. It all started here. DeLuca’s Diner supposedly has “the best breakfast in town“, even the guy from Man Vs. Food came here! Chris has been determined to have me eat at all the Pittsburgh staple restaurants while I’m visiting, so DeLuca’s was the first stop today! DeLuca’s had a very hometown diner kind of feel to it! Chris ordered a “mixed grill”, eggs, meat, and veggies. So much food! I, on the other hand, decided to go with the Strawberries & Cream Buckwheat Waffle. I’ve never had buckwheat before, but it didn’t…

Grilled Zucchini and Green Pepper Sandwich
Good evening everyone. I just made the most delicious and satisfying dinner! I can’t wait to tell you guys about it, but I’m going to tell you about my breakfast first.

Sunday Adventures in Woodstock – Take 2

Sunday my sister, and my friend Brendan and I decided to go hiking in Woodstock, NY for the day! Before our hike we stopped at a natural foods store in the village called Sunflower Natural Foods. It was so cute! It reminded me of the HWFC in Albany, but more hippyish! I…

Confessions of a Chocoholic
So, I have to admit something. I’m a chocolate addict!!! For the longest time I avoided all candy and chocolate (while I was in the process of losing weight) but once I hit my goal, I decided to splurge once in a while and have a piece a day. Eventually, one piece turned to two, and two to three, and on and on. Now I usually eat 3-4 pieces a day. I know, this is not good of me, I need to stop. I need to only eat chocolate when I’m seriously craving it, and need that chocolate fix. So this is my current short-term goal: cut back on chocolate!!! Anyway, since…
