Happy Friday everyone! Any plans for the weekend? We will be visiting family on Sunday and possibly going to dinner with my father in law on Saturday night. I'm now almost 17 weeks pregnant and my belly is definitely noticeable! T and I took Ginger for a walk yesterday and one of our neighbors gave us a thumbs up and yelled congrats across his yard. I swear he would of ran up and gave T a high five..men. Then he said "There is something in the water in this neighborhood.." LOL! I guess you could say that, with the amount of kids and babies (the youngest being only 2 months old!) that live on my block. This past week I've been feeling extra dizzy. I would blame the heat, but it hasn't been very hot. I feel like I have vertigo, especially in the morning. I've been laying down a lot, which helps. Hopefully it will pass and isn't anything to worry about.
Anyway, I finally finished the L.O.V.E cups! This was the pecan one. I am so sad I don't have anymore.. or any raw chocolate left for that matter. I'm going to have to stock up at the health food store this weekend.
I did have some other chocolate though.. dark chocolate covered mulberries!!!
These are amazing! Look at those big chunks! Yum!!! And yes, I do have a freckle on my pinkie..he he!
Of course I snacked on my new favorite snack--dried mulberries! These are like candy! I just can't stop popping them!
I also had a few cooked meals this week. For lunch one day, I made a bowl of brown rice with peas. I like to add lots of nutritional yeast!
This was big green smoothie I had for breakfast yesterday: Spinach, Pineapple, Banana, Almond Milk, Maca, DHA oil, Spirulina, Bee Pollen and Sunwarrior protein.
Last night I made lentils for dinner, I added celery, red potatoes, kale and carrots. I like using the red lentils because they breakdown and get all creamy. This was delicious!

Have a great weekend everyone!

love your eats...and those chocolate covered mulberries sound like a dream come true...i use to love chocolate covered raisins...and i've been missing them lately...i know i could make my own...
i hope you feel better soon girlie. i am sure it's nothing to be worrying about...pregnancy brings about dizziness...

i was contemplating buying mulberries yesterday! nutritional yeast with brown rice is actually a great idea... why didn't i think of that. i like nutritional yeast on everything, but have never tried it on cooked stuff..
have a great weekend :)

Sounds like a reason to dial 9-1-1. No chocolate = Emergency
Mr. T, get this woman some chocolate, stat! She's dizzy for lack of cacao in her system. ツ
I see you're still sporting your mani from last week. It's held up nicely. I am in desperate need of one.
Hey, Sunday will be T's very first Father's Day! How exciting. Give the proud papa a smooch from me.
I hope the dizziness passes for you, but it is good you are able to rest when it happens. I bet Ginger makes a nice cuddle buddy:)
Thanks for the idea to cover some mulberries with chocolate!
haha love it

Mulberries are great! Although I have not had them in a while, just might get me some!
have a great weekend.

that is too funny about the neighbors, Lauren! :) something in the water. tee hee! i hope you've been having one fantastical week - it looks like it's been filled with tons of deliciousness. sadface on the last of the l.o.v.e. cups - i think i'm gonna have to order some as a treat sometime soon. i love your lentil bowl - i also love how red lentils make down and make everything so creamy. super yum! brown rice 'n peas with nooch = comfort food and your smoothie looks ridiculously yummy! enjoy your weekend and i hope the dizziness passes super soon!
A pregnant woman without chocolate?? Say it's not so! Get thee to the store. ;-)
I do hope you feel better soon. {{{hugs}}}
Enjoy your weekend.
All those chocolate treats look so yummy, especially the cups! I have never had mulberry before, what does it taste like? Sweet? Bitter? Citrusy?
Unfortunately, the city I live in isn't big in the health-food craze. I can't find any of the lovely food you eat! The closest thing I get to it is the farmers market, which is only open one day a week :(
How is your pregnancy going? Are you doing well?
Hope you're ok and the dizziness improves xxx
No more raw chocolate! How could you let that happen! I'm awful- if I know my stock's running low I buy some before it run's out, hehe :)
Hope you have a great weekend! I've got a day of yoga today- SO excited xxx
I hope your feeling better now Lauren!!
Too bad with the shortage but I am so wanting choc now!
aw, i want to see a picture of the belly!!
Wow all your eats look delicious, including the lentil dish. Congrats on making it this far with the pregnancy, you must look really cute with a little belly showing now?
Oh and Kristen will be popping any day now, sooo exciting, babies all around for sure!

Brown rice with nooch, peas, and corn is one of my fave comfort food dishes, bar none!
Should I just stop commenting when you and I prove, yet again, to be twins?
