The weekend and things ahead..
I had a fabulous wonderful weekend. The movie "I love you, man" was hilarious! We had a great time. This Friday coming up I have a colonoscopy (BLAH), wish me luck, I am praying things have improved. Then I am off all of next week. Whoohoo, fun times ahead!On Friday it was so beautiful and warm here that I opened all of the windows and put Ginger's bed in the sun for her to enjoy it. Here she is laying down, soaking up the rays. She will be 3 years old on Sunday!! I can't believe how big she has gotten, I will do a special birthday post for her on Sunday.
We bought some cute garden statues for our yard. I named the bunny Filbert. The angel has no name, she just watches over us. :)
We also bought and planted four blueberry bushes!! I can't wait to be able to pick and eat my own fruit (probably not for 2 years!). I must be patient!
At Whole Foods this week, I picked up 2 different powders for my smoothies. Superfoods to the rescue!
On Saturday when T and I went to our favorite health food store and deli, I picked up these Just Peas. They have nothing added and nothing artificial, they are pretty tasty. I wanted to get the persimmon one as well, but they are almost $5.00 each, so I tried the peas first. Great little snack!
For dinner at the deli, I got the vegan falafel sandwich on a whole wheat wrap. This was very tasty and fulfilling. Someone had asked in my last blog post about how I tolerate wheat with Crohn's. It really doesn't bother me at all. I've been tested a few times for gluten intolerance and it always comes up negative. I do however, try to avoid wheat on my own. But I do indulge once in a while.
I also had a garden salad from there. I added some Parma to it when I got home. This salad was so fresh and colorful. My favorite kind of meal! :)
Have a wonderful Monday everyone! Hopefully I will post before my colonoscopy. We will be at my in laws Thursday night-Saturday night, so if you don't hear from me, that's why.

Hey,
I made my first "green" smoothie. It has curly kale, pineapple, mango, and banana. All organic. It is delicious! I can't wait to experiment with more greens. thanks for the inspiration.
I forgot, I also added about a tablespoon of ground flax seeds!

Boo on the blender.. I know that a vita mix is super expensive.. i dont have a vitamix but i got a smoothie maker from bed bath and beyond that is pretty amazing... seriosuly takes like 3 minutes to make a monster smoothie... look into it for the time being maybe? i think it cost me 50 bucks. ( i know how frusterating a bad blender can be!)
I wanna see I love you man!!! i love that whole crew of actors.. they are hysterical!
good luck on friday!!!
