WIAW: Gettin’ Snacky

As I mentioned last WIAW, I was very excited to see that the theme of June’s WIAW is sensible snacking.

There is nothing that this Sometimes Healthy girl enjoys more than snacking. I actually eat the big meals too, but if you are ever so lucky as to work with me or spend the day with me, you will see that I never go more than two hours without eating something.

I was thrilled when that theory came out that eating small meals all day helps with your metabolism, because it justified what I have been doing my entire life, since I was a baby  (just ask my mother).

So, without further ado, here is the Sometimes Healthy WIAW: Gettin’ Snacky Edition.

WIAW: Losing My Voice


Another Wednesday and yet another WIAW.

Okay, I’m officially hooked! I love how WIAW forces me to actually pay attention to what I’m putting in my mouth and also how it forces me to slow down, make my food look pretty and not inhale it. (I was also super excited to find out that June’s WIAW will be about sensible snacking…all I do is snack – I’m going to have a lot of fun with these posts!)

I also want to talk a bit about losing my voice…my blogging voice. But, before we settle into the drama, let’s talk food.

So, grab your coffee and settle in for edition #3 of Sometimes Healthy WIAW…

WIAW: Oh, Hello Summer!

So, it turns out there is something to be said for this whole “What I Ate Wedneday” concept. I had a great time posting all of my eats from last Wednesday and, you all seemed to love it. So, here I am again!

The weather here in the Hudson Valley has been beautiful the past few days, so this edition of WIAW is all about the summer! After all, it is just around the corner! I’ve been making an effort to get outdoors for my meals, and of course, we’ve taken advantage of something I could never even dream of doing back in NYC: grilling out! (Okay, the BF grills and I prep everything, watch him and take pictures).

But, let’s begin our WIAW with one of my favorite breakfasts…

WIAW: A First time for Everything!

I have been a healthy living blogger for two years now (with a brief 1 year hiatus), but I’ve never actually participated in the ever-popular What I Ate Wednesday Party (WIAW). Maybe it’s because I wasn’t sure that anyone would find what I eat on Wednesdays (or Mondays and Tuesdays for that matter) very interesting.

However, since my life has changed tremendously from my NYC blogging days, I thought I could use WIAW as a platform to detail a day in the life! Back when I first started blogging, I wrote about a day in the life of an NYC career woman, which discussed the everyday triumphs and trials that often accompany living in NYC.  The post detailed my morning run in central park, crowded subways, farmers markets and a typical late night at the office.

So, how has that changed since I moved to the “country” of the Hudson Valley? Read on for WIAW (What I Ate Tuesday actually) and a day in the life of a Sometimes Healthy Country Bumpkin.
