I have been wanting to get back to posting on this!! Things with school have been really busy with the start of a new semester -- living off of a lot of Pro bars, oatmeal, cereal (corn flakes, dried raisins plus flax seed milk), ready made burritos (Sweet Earth) and going out to eat... I know it's terrible.
And I actually did sick for about a week -- which kind of got me behind in classes and everything -- I blame my husband lol. He went on a trip to Singapore and came back with a terrible virus. Which I fortunately got. I know. Lovely. I consumed about 3 bags of coughdrops in a week, lots and lots and lots of tea. Natural Philosophy (a local health food store/yoga studio) was wonderful and specially mixed some healing tea for me :) :)
I also did my best to get back into preparing fresh healthy meals and juices -- I am rather time constrained with my schedule, but I am doing the best that I can :)
I have taken a few pictures of some meals that I have made within the past few weeks, which hopefully I will post sooner rather than later... :)
I made this quiche today.. and it was amazing!!
Simple and amazing!
