It’s been a crazy year. The last week of classes is just around the corner, and I can just smell the endless hours that I’m going to spend studying for exams. The late nights. The coffee. Then forgetting it all as I first look at the exam. Let me tell you about how forgetful I…

Avocado Egg Salad
November, to me, is always the month that really drags on. It knows how to make you feel like you aren’t getting enough done: it gets darker much sooner and the newspapers are getting thicker, packed with all the Christmas goodies you are supposed to buy for your loved ones. This is why I love…
Healthy Banana Milkshake
When I buy bananas, I go all out. I can probably feed a couple of zoos and still have some to spare with all the bananas I have bought. This is one of the reasons I don’t buy bananas during the summer. They would be ripe before I could even get them home. So I’m…
Strawberry Spinach Salad
What have I been eating lately? Burgers? Fries? Things that I can get my hands on fast and easy so I don’t need to worry about taking time to prepare something. Well, I think I definitely need to reconsider my priorities. Or reconsider my food choices. I never knew how delicious and easy making a…
Easy Ice Cream Cake
You know, I should really just name everything I make now easy. I should have an easy category as my go-to “I’m going to make these because I only have 5 minutes to spare and I want to make something good” pile. Although it feels as though I would be going there a lot regardless:…
Strawberry Cranberry Smoothie
You know that I bought too many cranberries when all my smoothies are somehow loaded with these left-over frozen cranberries that I bought for thanksgiving. I should really celebrate another thanksgiving next month. You know, like the rest of America. Instead I made this. I have got to say though, I have grown to love…
Peach Cranberry Mint Tea Smoothie
Well, it seems like I’m pulling an all nighter. Yet again. But instead of guzzling down some coffee or grabbing a can of red bull, I opted to make this delicious smoothie instead. I know, the other two would have been faster to make so that I can get more stuff done, but I have…
Cranberry Lime Smoothie
Wow, it seems like I have no time for anything! I thought I could handle it. School full time plus tutoring 4 people plus running two first year calculus workshops plus working another job… But now I can plainly see that I need to give something up.. Making food? I think I may have given…
Lemon Sorbet
I have finally bought an ice cream maker you guys! Seriously, hands down, the best thing I have bought in the last, oh I don’t know. Long time. The best part about it though? I didn’t actually pay for it. I bought it with my airmiles. Because, sadly, I’m not going to be traveling anywhere…
Blueberry and Blackberry Smoothie
I have been sinking deeper and deeper into a state of sadness. Why, you all are probably wondering? Well, I have just finished grading the quizzes of the students in the first year calculus workshops that I’m running this year. And let me tell you, it wasn’t pretty. I told myself at the beginning, right…
