New Food Reviewer: Laura

There's a lot going on at Iateapie.net this week - starting with reviews from new Food Reviewers! This will provide us with new perspectives on the taste and nutrition of many more foods. Today, we're introducing Laura S to the family.

Laura is a Cornell graduate living on the Upper West Side in New York City, though she is rarely home due to the hectic travel schedule of her job as a strategy consultant. Even on the road, she still tries to eat as healthfully as possible and squeeze in a workout every day, whether that means logging time down in the hotel gym or simply doing water bottle bicep curls and attempting to bench press the coffee table in her room. Laura loves running, and is currently on a quest to complete a marathon in each of the fifty states - you can read more about her running adventures at her blog, Absolut(ly) Fit.
