Happy belated Easter/Passover!
I’m back in NYC after a fun Easter in NJ.
I made a tough decision of which hummus to pick from a display of basically hundreds. (Sabra Sun-Dried Tomato, if you were wondering.)
Ate salad AND pasta. (Linguine with white clam sauce.)
Dyed Easter Eggs.
Gave Bailey a bunny basket.
Ate eggs with mozzarella. Maybe not pretty, but delicious.
Drank mimosas.
Ate things in flaky pastry. (Pigs in a blanket and spanakopita.)
Paused for a doggie photoshoot.
“What are you doing?!”
I don’t even know.
After the appetizers came the spaghetti course, obviously. I went with whole wheat pasta with mine.
Usually, we take a very short break between the spaghetti course and every other course, but yesterday, we were absolutely stuffed, so we took a long break and a long walk. (In which I tricked my mom and Lacey into a longer walk.)
Round two involved Brussels sprouts with bacon and maple syrup.
A spinach salad with goat cheese, grape tomatoes and balsamic vinaigrette.
And half a sweet potato and chateaubriand. Which was all delicious and stuff…
But I was saving myself for this bunny ice cream cake.
And this morning, I miraculously was out of bed at 5:50 to run 4.5 miles with Ashley. I’m glad we’re living close to each other, because Ashley is definitely a morning exerciser, and I’m hoping we’ll have more morning workout dates.
No idea why I chose Frank Sinatra lyrics to name my last post on this…
As I mentioned in my last post, I've really been going through it with headaches.…

I have been thinking about this post for a while—on why diet culture is unhealthy…
I woke up this morning already feeling anxious. (Yay!) My standard iPhone alarm is set…
I read The Midnight Library over the weekend, and I need to talk about it.…

Thank YOU for the run date! It wasn't our fastest run together, by far, but it was exactly what I needed. Catching up, logging some miles, and enjoying a beautiful sunrise is perfect for a Monday morning! :)
God I love you for spelling "Chateaubriand" correctly. Thank you. <3 Grammar & Spelling <3 Glad you had a lovely Easter weekend! Hi Bailey!
@Ali: I mean, I did Google it, but still. Grammar is sexy.
hahaha i had to click out to comment on those ADORABLE pup shots! love love. and that cake looks pretty fantastic.. i am an ice cream whore.
I'm definitely a morning exerciser too - if you and Ashley ever run together on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, count me in!
(Because I'm guessing you don't want to go at 3:45am on a Monday).
Ah so much hummus!
All of that food looks delish! Though the bunny cake looks a little odd. Glad you liked it!
Dude, can we talk about this Bunny Cake?? Where? When? How???
@Jocelyn: Dairy Queen!!!
That's really a beautiful bunny cake!!! And I'd choose Sabra every time!
I got full just looking at the pictures. That bunny ice cream cake is like the cutest thing ever!
I love that your mimosas are basically a glass of champagne with a teeny tiny splash of OJ.
@Former Coworker Abby: Hi, have we met?
