Featured somewhere in Asia this doughnut is edible !! Hello Kitty Inspired clearly. My Grandma Spoils once told me ” If you eat a doughnut you’ll look like a doughnut” therefore I do not eat doughnuts too often. I do on the other hand LOVE Hello Kitty. Hello Kitty is a global sensation , a familiar face wherever you go !
Quite the hit at The Lunch Room A2 ! These nachos are believe it or not VEGAN and effin coregasmic !!
Tucked away in Kerrytown – the historic mini town in Downtown Ann Arbor, MI you will find The Lunch Room. It is a part of the Kerrytown Shops! Just around the corner from the Famous Zingermans Deli and Bake Shop.
The Nachos came back on the Menu on May 15th. As they are vegan the cheese is not real cheese but cashews!! Be careful if you are a nut-free kid ! As a kid who grew up lactose intolerant I sure did enjoy this version of nachos !! On top we had black beans tomatoes onions and peppers. There was also an option to add avocado spread.
I love the outside seating and recycled wood tables. This photo is of the Wilted Green salad which is just simply Kale and the other is the Green Salad minus tomatoes.
LOVE this place cant wait to be back there again.
They offer meal plans as well to promote ease with the Vegan Lifestyle.
Meatless Monday was a SUCCESS !!
Bikes have spiked my interest this week & I am hoping into my life permanently. I have stumbled upon Detroit Bikes – “We cut, cope, bend, weld, paint, assemble and package each bike in our 50,000 square-foot factory in west Detroit” 100% Detroit Made. I am obsessed with the Matte Black sleek look of the bike Detroit Bikes produces! Matte Black is such a hot trend right now all across the board whether its seen on a sports car, your nails or even sneakers !
A note from their website www.DetroitBikes.com ” Our mission is to encourage cycling by making an accessible, enjoyable bicycle while continuing Detroit’s legacy of quality manufacturing and design. Detroit Bikes are built in a city with manufacturing prowess and deep traditions of bicycle production, touring, recreational riding, commuting, and racing. We are located on Detroit’s west side at 13639 Elmira Street. In our 50,000 square-foot factory we have the capacity to produce 100 bicycles a day, marking the return of high-volume US frame manufacturing.

Honestly I am thinking about going downtown on Monday to make a purchase ! It is a mere $699 that is a good investment in not only Detroit but your HEALTH. Biking is one of the best lifestyle choices you can make for yourself.

There are many different groups who are striving for efforts for the future of Mobility – Zagster is taking the bike share scene by storm with their innovative mentality of bikes as a luxury amenity. The bike share system is “free” as long as you are a team member or student of an organization that has chosen to select Zagster’s Bike Share System. They are creating a better way to bike! Of course Quicken Loans has jumped on board with giving their team members the opportunity to bike the town !
BIKING extends your lifespan
BIKING makes the world a better place
Twenty bicycles can be parked in the same space as one car. It takes around five percent of the materials and energy used to make a car to build a bike, and a bike produces zero pollution.

Brrrrringggg !! Brrrringgg !! Brrring ! No longer the sound of your land line phone but perhaps a biker swiftly trying to pass by. It is absolutely essential to use your BIKE BELL when riding in town. Not only is it a fun way to spice up the streets but a SAFE way to let people know IM COMING. I’ve been partaking in “Bike Share” programs every chance I get ! For Future Share : Divvy Bikes, Chicago & Deco Bikes, Miami (photos and stories to come).
I don’t believe every rider recognizes that the bell’s on the bikes are what they are … ! If you look over to the right hand handle bar – you will see a small circle – swipe your thumb hard on this & youll hear the brrrrrinngggggggg !!!

Man o Man, Cheers to Fireball Friday !! Since a young age, I vividly remember celebrating TGIF !! Whether it was a solid screening of MK & A going on their latest adventure while nomming on a Dominoes Pizza or now at 23 years of age …. shots of Fire Ball ! Everyone needs something to look forward to at the end of the business week – to keep them going day in and day out @ the office, okay maybe thats a little bit of an extreme.
My new favorite activity is Fireball Friday ! For the first 2 or 3 weeks … it just happened to be a coincidence ! Now I make sure that FireBall Friday is a sure thing ! I do look at Friday night as shabbos, the time of the week that you dedicate yourself to a good meal & good company. Even if that meal tends to be the most unkosher of sushi , it is the thought of good times that is the most important. Get your Friends & Family ( FRAMiLY ) together and party on.
Join Me in making Friday a good day ! Cheers to FireBall & Fun !

Luckily I’m not stuck in a cubicle each and everyday of the week, but you sure know that if I were it’d be decorated to the nine’s! My work space is bright & open with tons of natural light, when we happen to get a sunny day in Michigan. I am looking into fun things to spice up my desk area & make me smile all day long.
These are the first few creatures I’ve come across made by Plaid Pigeon !! They make really cute toy planters & there are other versions on etsy as well ! I think its really important to incorporate living things (outside of humans) into your daily life. Small terrariums have become increasingly popular for people to place in their homes or office spaces or wherever. Many people purchase floating terrariums which i love as well ! I think these little dinosaurs and animals bring more character to the table.
If you happen to be in Downtown Detroit, and would be amazing to support a local business who sell sells in-home planters like the floating ones or they have other designs as well that are stationary. Swing by Nest – in downtown Detroit!!

Meat Mondays … We’ll I caved in for a #MeatMonday over a Meatless one … but for good reason !! Low & Behold the RAMEN BURGER. A scrumptious treat that is easily hand made by YOU. First of all you have to gather your ingredients ….
This is only for making the “Ramen Bun” – not the burger, that is up to you!
1 Packet of Ramen ( I choose chicken flavor), maybe next time i’d try beef
1 Egg
2 Bowls with flat bottoms
1 Tablespoon ( or more lol) of oil
* plastic saran wrap
* 2 pop cans or cups
First Step: Follow the ingredients on your Ramen packet – mine say to boil a pot of water with the appropriate amount of water, once it is at a boil, add the packet of ramen, wait for about 3 minutes // until it is soft, then drain almost all of the liquid, save a smidgen for adding the seasonings, then mix around & drain fully.
Second Step: you will let the noodles cool for about 10 minutes, just put it off to the side or whatever works for you. Then when the ten minutes have passed you will crack one egg into the pot/bowl whatever and stir in it thoroughly.
Third Step: you will separate the noodles into two separate bowls (EVENLY) – with flat bottoms – these will turn into your buns !! Shape wisely … I went with square. Then you will cover the noodles with the saran wrap & place the cans ( or cups) on top. The diet coke gives this dish a “healthy” feel – but really its purpose is to weigh down the ramen buns!
Fourth Step: Place these two bowls into the fridge for 30 minutes – or if you get distracted a little bit longer is okay.
Walk around your kitchen , do 10 push-ups, 25 jumping jacks & 15 squats – you got to make room for this delicious treat !!
>> During this time you could also begin to prep and marinate your burger. Preheat the oven or grill ( whichever works for you)
Fifth Step: When you remove the bowls from the fridge and take off the pop cans, your result should look something like this photo below!
Sixth Step: What you’d like to do next is preheat your skillet pan and once it gets warmed up it is time to pour on the oil ! Unwrap your soon-to-be-buns and toss them onto the skillet pan ! Let them sizzle here for 3 – 5 minutes then flip them over. Let the other side cook for about 2 minutes. Flip back & Forth until they are the color of your liking.
You might be interested in adding a little bit more oil if you’d like your buns to get browner.
TA DAHHHHHHHH !!!! You’re DONE! Add your burger between your buns – and ENJOY !!
I personally like plain – some other recipes will add green onion , lettuce, soy or siracha ketchup! Honestly one pack made enough for 2 people to enjoy it. Depends also how big your burgers are !
Pictured above my side dishes are home made Sweet Potato Waffle Chips ( baked in the oven on 400 degrees) & Mashed Cauliflower ( Paleo, can be made vegan if you don’t add butter) , but let’s be honest your not sticking a giant juicy burger in it than !! But you could add a Veggie Burger.
To each his or her own can add their flare !!
Bon Apetite !
