An Easter Meal at Candle 79!

Hey All! Happy belated East/Passover/Weekend! I hope you all had a great one! For Easter we went to Candle 79 with my mother in law and little brother in law. My other brother in law and his fiance were on a cruise and my in laws are now divorced so my father in law went his own way. But, we had a lovely time. We walked through Central Park (A LOT!), and then had a lovely lunch/early dinner at Candle 79. I ordered a delicious special salad they had: Spinach, Roasted Artichoke Hearts, Pickled Onions, Olives and a Lemon dressing. Delicious!
Sorry for the blurry pictures, I wanted to take them quick so my mother in law didn't think I was crazy! ;) For my entree I ordered the tempeh (my favorite dish to get at Candle). This time it was over green beans, a sweet potato puree and cocoa mole sauce. On top was a roasted pepper, sliced almonds and I think dill? Anyway, it was awesome! The only time I have tempeh is when I am at a restaurant, and most of the time that is Candle 79! So good!
For dessert, I went raw! I ordered the cherry and pineapple raw parfait. Underneath was raw granola and on top was a cherry sorbet and pineapple ring and pineapple sauce. YUM!!!! This was so refreshing and hit the spot! You can see through the ring, my mother in law ordered the Peanut Butter Bliss! :)
My mother in law was also kind enough to bring us some Easter gifts! Two raw chocolate bunnies from One Lucky Duck!
How cute is this? And very yummy too! I broke off the ears and ate them last night! :)
She also brought me this book by Dr. Oz: You: Having a Baby. This looks great, I already thumbed through it.

Today is my lovey, Ginger's Birthday!! She is 4 years old!!! Check out this post from last year on her birthday! Have a great week everyone! Love, love, love!
