More Food Finds

Hey All, I hope you had a great weekend! Thanks for all the comments on my new blog. I have about 10 days worth of posts ready to go up over there, so if you don't see me here because I am busy with the baby, you can still get a little Lauren Love! ;) It's easier to post over there since I post my meals here and it's pretty much impossible to do so in advance. Feel free to leave me comments, spread the word, add me to your blog roll.. spread the love! <3 Anyway, I am typing this post on Sunday (JUST IN CASE...). 

I stocked up on some more goodies to have in the hospital and for after the baby comes. I made two trail mixes, one is goji berries, pumpkin seeds and black and white mulberries and the other is raisins and almonds.


I also found a new raw bar at Whole Foods, I've had a few different ones by this brand and they are all delicious, this was no exception.
As you may know, I LOVE my kraut! This brand (Real Pickles) is my favorite. It is raw so it has lots of good tummy bacteria. I was super excited when I saw the garlic variety! Soooo good! And will definitely keep the vampires away (unless of course you don't want to keep them away..any True Blood fans get my drift..LOL!). ;)
Again, another new Theo find! Gig and Fennel almond! Of course this is amazing, Theo is my favorite non-raw chocolate ever!
Earlier I mentioned Black and White Mulberries, well here they are! So yummy!!!!
If I am not in labor/hospital during Thanksgiving, my mother in law, bestie and brother in law(s) are coming over with food. My mother in law makes amazing vegan meals (I mentioned, she is a vegan) and last Thanksgiving was soooo good! Anyway, I want to make a raw pie, please send me your favorites!!! XO

oooo,I want to try mulberries! YOu must have great buyers at your WF, still no new Theo flavors here. Last night I bought an organic fair trade bakers bar, 100%. Yea, I don't know what I was thinking, I'm not that hard core! I get your drift =D I was sad that when I finally got to use the library's season two, we were so busy that I couldn't watch them all before it had to go back!

Looks like a great bunch of snacks. I'd love to find that Theo bar and try some mulberries.

Go younger bar--nice name.

I've been loving kraut lately. Homemade so I can eat tons.

As for pies, oh wow I have a million ideas--just depends on what you like. There are some in Raw For the Holidays that look good.

You have the best snacks! That trail mix will do you loads of good as you recover from having your baby. I remember eating a lot of them after my babies were born. Quick, nutritious, and delicious!

Mulberries are so good - I don't usually compare healthy foods to candy, but this begs for it. They are like little natural jujubes! And kraut, yum, I can eat a lot of that too :)

Looks like you're one prepared mama! Those snacks look delicious!

I totally failed at making a raw pumpkin pie a few years ago, but this year I made a raw pumpkin "cheesecake" that my husband LOVES! Here's the recipe, if you're interested: http://healthyhoggin.com/2010/09/raw-pumpkin-cheesecake/
