liquid lunch in the lovenest
I love my Vitamix. I would marry it and make its babies if I could. Besides my favorite Rag & Bone boots, it is absolutely the best $500 I ever spent. I know what you’re saying to yourself — $500?! For a blender?! That was my first thought too when my friend Jackie recommended it. But trust. I watched the hour-long QVC infomercial and I was hooked. I bought it. I have yet to regret one penny of it.
It does EVERYTHING.
My favorite thing it does — and the real reason I bought it in the first place — is it juices veggies, from whole. I love me some green juice. And if you’re a girl trying to get the man in your life to eat healthier, this is the best way — because it’s so easy. You can pack so much veggie goodness into one drink. And you can sweeten it up for them too with fruit or a touch of fruit juice, like I did today with this mix: kale, cucumber, strawberries, flax oil, orange juice and ice cubes.
stunning rooftop garden @ rosemary’s
Everything about this neighborhood gem was perfect, then I walked up the stairs to the stunning rooftop garden @ Rosemary’s and fell even more in love.
If you haven’t been, I highly recommend.
Now I want to grow my own veggies — or, more likely, start an herb garden on the windowsill.
my first time really truly cooking for B
Valentine’s Day 2012: I invited B over to my apartment for a special, home-cooked meal — a big deal since I had never cooked for him before.
I made his favorites: scallops + Brussels sprouts and what he thought were mashed potatoes, but was really mashed cauliflower. A little trickery in the kitchen never hurt anyone.
