The 7 Deadly Sins Eating Habits of A This College Student:

  1. Panini topped with Sour Cream & Onion chips  (noms x10)
  2. Eating straight from the pint of Ben & Jerry’s froyo (no shame lots and lots of shame)
  3. Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds – dry – after hitting the gym (epitome of logic)
  4. Rice Krispies for breakfast, lunch, or dinner
  5. Pizza after midnight
  6. Frozen Back to Nature Fudge Mint Cookies (better than Thin Mints!)
  7. Daily square of Lindt Touch of Sea Salt Dark Chocolate (addicted, much?)

Twas a healthy year, indeed.  (Let’s not even talk about finals week…)

Every once in a while I make a dish that makes me go “OH. MY. GOD.” when I take my first bite.  Then I have a moment of silence.  Then I take another bite and repeat.  It’s more or less a religious experience.

These are one of those dishes.

sandwiches galore!

I have news!  And sandwiches!

I recently joined the crew over at The Next Great Generation as a food writer!  I’m just getting started, but so far it’s given me the chance to explore the Boston food scene which is definitely exciting.

For my first post on the site, I decided to make three really simple but really delicious panini using five or less ingredients (salt, pepper, and butter or oil excluded).  Incidentally, I think these may very well be the first savory recipes I’m sharing.  Groundbreaking!

Check out these beauties:

Happy panini making!

Hello, hungry readers!  It’s been quite a while!

2012 has been pretty crazy for me so far… new classes, a decent amount of traveling, exploring summer opportunities.  Pure craziness.  In a good way, of course!

But despite being so busy, I’ve decided, as a sort of New Year’s resolution, to cut back on caffeine.  What what what am I thinking?  Not exactly a decision that is compatible with the college-freshman lifestyle.  (Ironic side note: I just drank a medium iced coffee from Au Bon Pain.  Oops.)

brown sugar snickerdoodles

I didn’t think it would be this long before I blogged again.

I guess I got caught up in first semester chaos – exploring the city, adjusting to classes, working on papers, rehearsing presentations, fighting the dreaded Freshman Fifteen.

Despite my intentions to continue TMB while away at school, blogging definitely took a backseat to everything else going on in my life.
