Busy weekend = Lots of fun, few pictures!
I had a wonderful long weekend! Friday night I went back into the city to Candle79 for my mother in law's birthday. I didn't take pictures but I ordered the Raw Tartare (again), a quinoa and avocado salad, and a side of sauteed greens. Saturday I had my sister's college graduation party at my parents house and Sunday we had some friends over for a BBQ. The BBQ was all vegetarian. I didn't take any pics but the menu was: veggie burgers, Sunshine Burgers, Tofu Dogs, corn on the cob, veggie kabobs, grilled eggplant, raw veggies and hummus, pita chips, regular chips, and a big salad. I stayed mostly raw and had my corn un-cooked, some eggplant, a big salad, Sunshine burger without a bun and a veggie kabob. We had a blast!
My sister brought over her dog, a Maltese. Ginger was not very happy about it..
Now to back track, on Thursday night T and I went to Whole Foods for dinner. I had the gazpacho soup..
And a big salad. This was all raw goodies and some baked sweet potato. Yum! Crunchy sprouts are my favorite so I filled my salad with them.
Yesterday for lunch I made this salad: sprouts, avocado, raw kraut, cherry tomatoes, sun dried tomatoes, oil cured olives, Parma, and kelp flakes.
I got my package that I won from Lacy! This is the first package I received which was from Amazing Grass.
This is the package that Lacy sent me with the Amazing Grass goodies from her. She also added some yummy naturally flavored lemon raisins and 2 granola bars that T enjoyed (they weren't vegan). I am really enjoying all these amazing products! I used the wheat grass powder in my smoothie this morning!
Have a nice short week everyone! We've been enjoying spending time outside in our yard. I need to post an updated picture of our garden! It's growing so fast! Can't wait to enjoy my own veggies!

Poor Ginger!!!
Those salads look delicious!!
Miss Ginger does not like sharing the limelight, eh?
Crunchy sprouts are my fave! I eat them like I used to eat M&M's. :D
Yes, garden pics, please.
What kind of kraut do you get, and did it take you a while to get used to it? I've been wanting to try it, but have been a little timid due to bad memories (and smells) from childhood.
Hi Metta,
The brand is called Real Pickles. They sell it at my Whole Foods in NJ. I love the stuff, but I always have so it doesn't bother me. It does have a scent you might not like. Good luck!
horray for gardens!!!! We have a huge one that my parents just planted.. i cant wait to say.. "Hey i need a pepper".. "let me go outside and PICK one"
hehehe
ps... are you a fan of raw soups?? i wanna try one out but i dunno what to start with (wanna give the vita mix a spin)
