A Busy Week! March 22nd - 26th

I've still been dealing with the migraines, plus a lot of other stress in my life, so my eating habits haven't been that good. I do however try to eat well when I can, and I got to have some good eats this week...

I tried the Spice in Astor Place on Monday (on 10th St. & 4th Ave.). I liked the atmosphere of this one quite a bit-- there's definitely more room. But the one in Chelsea beats them all on service and it never seems as crowded! I got my usual... spring rolls and broad rice noodles in soy sauce, with broccoli, egg, and tofu.



On Tuesday I went to the hair salon... I stopped for lunch uptown first at Angelo's Pizza. I got a penne pasta dish with mozzarella and veggies.


And here are some pics of my hair on the cab ride home...



Ok, so you all know by now that I'm a fan of Sea Thai Bistro and Spice, but I had never tried one of their other restaurants yet! It's called Peep and they are located on Prince St. in Soho. It's similar to the other two, but a little bit different. The restaurant's atmosphere is really cool and the place was pretty packed by 12:30 when I went on Wednesday.

I got their spring rolls as my appetizer (which is free just like in their other restaurants). I was a little apprehensive to try them, because it said they came with a carrot juice vinaigrette. But I was pleasantly surprised-- it was delicious! And I thought the spring rolls were even bigger and better than the ones I was used to!


I got their pad thai with tofu for my entree. This was good as well, because it wasn't overly spicy like so many pad thai dishes.


Yesterday morning I had a physical... I hadn't had one in ages and figured I needed some blood work done (especially after the birth control pill fiasco and all the migraines). By 11 a.m. it was done though and I decided to go to Pax to get a breakfast wrap. I totally stole this food idea from Missy, but I told her that I was going to get this one of these days because it looked so delicious on her blog!

I had an egg wrap which consisted of egg whites, mushrooms, and american cheese on a whole wheat wrap. It was really good and they let you pick what you want in it!


And as for a funny food picture, the other day I realized that my goldfish crackers accidentally formed a question mark on the paper towel! lol


I wanted to also share these funny pics of Peanut on my lap that I took the other day!




Peanut is quite the little fatty, although he is a picky eater-- go figure! lol That's ok, I like it when pets are pleasingly plump. :)

I have been going through a bit of a food rut lately. I just don't feel like eating much of anything. So perhaps you guys can help me... what are some of your favorite quick, easy vegetarian meals?

Uptown Girl ~ October 8th

When my boyfriend said to me the other day, "so what color is your hair?" I knew that something had to be done! lol So I made a salon appointment promptly! I headed uptown to the salon this afternoon, and ran some errands up there as well....

First things first I wanted some lunch... just a simple slice of pizza... so I stopped in an Italian place called Angleo's Pizza. Turns out though, it was a sit-down restaurant and the only pizza I could get was if I ordered a whole pie! Since I was starving I ended up ordering a pasta dish instead... just penne with tomato sauce, spinach, and mozzarella. It was REALLY good.


I decided to splurge on something at Bergdorf Goodman today... As a makeup artist, I can tell you that when it comes to makeup, there is almost nothing better than La Mer. So I've been dying to try their new concealer... The cost is shocking, but their stuff is worth every penny.


After my hair appointment I was really craving some chocolate. I was by Henri Bendel's anyway, so I figured, why not go to one of my favorite places, their chocolate bar?! As you'll recall I went there a couple of months ago and got my favorite... a chocolate covered peanut butter crispie treat! (You can see my post here.) So you can imagine my shock and horror when I discovered that the they've CLOSED the chocolate bar!! :(

To fill the void, I went up the block to FAO Schwarz and got one of my favorite chocolate bars there... the wonka bar!! They are really hard to find, and I was so pleased that I found them, I got 2! I took a picture of it in the cab ride home.

Milk chocolate with graham cracker pieces... yum!

I took some pics of Peanut when I got home, but unfortunately I forgot to take pics of my hair! It came out great, but Peanut is still cuter! :)




Tomorrow I'm attending another blog dinner, so please remember to check back!
