Drinks&Eats


I take so many photos of my food before I eat it, I thought, "hey, why not put them all together in a post rather than have them sprawled throughout a regular post?" So, here it is. And I think it's helped me to understand my diet better, and why exactly I'm not losing as much weight as I'd like to. It appears that when I eat something healthy, I always eat something unhealthy which ultimately cancels it out. Which sucks, because I have this idea in my mind that I'm a pretty healthy eater, but by looking at all my photos of food together I realize that maybe I'm not! I hope this visual representation helps me to fix my diet for the better in the future...

Anyway, on the right above is a delicious salad I made last weekend (on the most beautiful day - I sat in the sun in my backyard while I ate it, with my dog!). It was made of just lettuce, sliced apples and strawberries, and I made some dressing out of a mix of olive oil and honey. On the left is a delicious margarita which I ate with an equally unhealthy meal that night, haha.


Blood orange donut from the Brooklyn Flea! I've been dying to try this donut, I see it on Instagram all the time (who knew donuts could be Instagam famous?) Anyway, it was delicious. But one is good enough for me, now that I've tried it. Watermelon was on sale this week at the food store.


On the right are some leftovers from when I ate at this new restaurant The Cleveland, which I'm actually writing a story about for my Journalism of Empathy class. I had these french fries which were served with a delicious alioli oil and a kale salad which was delicious as well.


On the right was a Pinterest-recipe inspired fail. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I didn't like the grilled onions in this. It tasted better before I added them, when it was just chickpeas, feta cheese, and fresh lemon juice.


On the right is from this place Crocodile Lounge we went to - they give you a free personal pizza whenever you order a drink! $5 for dinner and a drink, I love it.
