busy as a bee

i haven't been eating real meals lately mostly due to the amount of time i am away from the apartment. i just don't have the time or energy. today, i have been working on one of my papers in hopes that i will finish it [not very likely, unfortunately]. anyway...

this is the cauliflower and carrots i steamed and covered in green bell pepper and mushroom spaghetti sauce. it was yummy.

i found this little container of flavoring that needed to be used up so instead of making a giant pitcher, i have just been adding it to my glasses of water. it tasted really good for some reason and so i've had massive amounts of water which is great!

the red pepper hummus was something i brought back from break. my mom bought for when i was at home [i love her], but i never ended up eating it. leave two train rides totaling 5+ hours to make me devour it with pretzels.


and finally, i have the photos from the next article i am writing. i apologize for the poor lighting in the pictures, it wasn't the best spot to be photographing my food. i went to this little place called courier cafe. it used to be a newspaper office, but they converted it. the story is quite interesting but i cannot recall it at the moment. i ended up with the veggie chili and the half bagel with artichoke, lettuce, olive, tomato, and a pickle. it was divine. there was a ton of basil on the artichokes which you could smell immediately after she placed the platter on the table. it was a lovely experience even though it was quite a hike to get there. i was exhausted afterwards.

i can't wait for summertime. not only to be at home again with my family, but also b/c of the access to all of the veggies from my dad's garden. it will be absolutely grand.

I'll have to try spaghetti sauce with veggies! It actually sounds really good right now!

Beautiful pics. The Courier Cafe looks like it will get a positive write up.
