More Stuff I Ate

Yesterday, I grabbed some lunch from Mama Gaia inside Crosstown Concourse, the building where I work. I brought a book — North by Scott Jurek — and sat outside to read while I enjoyed this Asia Pita (sesame-crusted tofu, asian slaw, and vegan aioli sauce) with a side of Hummus & Veggies and a Raw Chocolate Brownie (saved for later!). Our office is SO COLD, and it feels nice to sit out on the dock and soak up some warmth before going back in for round two!


One of my all-time fave breakfasts — Brown Rice & Crumbled Tofu on Toast (with flax oil, Bragg's, and ketchup). Sounds weird, I know. But it's a recipe from Sarah Kramer/Tonya Barnard's How It All Vegan, and I've always loved it.


A sandwich for lunch one day at home — BE-Hive seitan apple-herb deli slices, avocado, Field Roast Chao Cheese, tomato, lettuce, and homemade pickles. Side of veggies and hummus.


This next pic makes me sad. It's the last pre-long run bagel I'll be eating for awhile. I had this Cinnamon Apple Bagel with Almond Butter last Saturday morning before what was supposed to be a 20-mile trail run. But I had to cut the run short at mile 9 when I started experiencing foot pain again. It seems that I may have re-fractured my foot. Not confirmed yet. But I've put myself back in the walking boot and I'm taking a forced break from running. My 50K in September might not be happening for me now. 


I was pretty bummed after that run so I drowned my sorrows in a homemade French Bread Pizza with Miyoko's Vegan Mozz, Tofurky sausage, kalamata olives, and bell pepper.


Today, I took the day off work to finish up a freelance writing assignment (I have plenty of vacation days left to use up this year!). I could have worked on it at home, but that's boring! So I went to Otherlands to work over an Iced Soy Latte and Everything Bagel with Vegan Cream Cheese & Vegan Butter.

Oh no! I'm so sorry about your foot! I hope that you heal up quickly and you can get back into your routine. The meals all look great, you know I'm all about bagels and that sandwich looks incredible!

Oh nooooo! Unfortunately it seems that once you fracture your foot there’s a high rate of re-injury :/ That must be really frustrating. And pizza does help.

That's so disappointing about your foot! I know how much you love running, and it is so disheartening to have to keep putting it off to heal.
