Poached Eggs Over Sauteed Garlic Spinach

On Thursdays I don’t have class until 1:30 so I get to sleep in and have brunch :)! Today, though, I didn’t do much sleeping in as I got up at 8am. I laid around on the couch for a few hours and studied for my English exam this afternoon (which I totally aced if

Salty-Sweet Granola "Clusters"

Salty-Sweet Granola Bars

Tastespotting didn’t like the “composition” of this photo Yes, I had originally set out to make granola bars.

I can see already that this is going to be a busy quarter for me in terms of school and I probably won’t get as many posts up as I would like to, but I sure will try! It’s been pretty dreary and cold here in Seattle with all this rain lately, and all I
