Onto eats, this was a salad I made for lunch one day last week: massaged kale, avocado, hummus, raw cashew cheese and Bubbies.
 |
| We had ordered take-out from a sushi restaurant in town (pre-Irene). I ordered an avocado salad: |
 |
| And a few avocado cucumber rolls. I felt like having normal rolls so I didn't get purple rice (like I usually do). |
 |
| Another lunch: romaine and kale salad with raw kraut, Bubbies, a Sunshine Burger, hummus, capers and raw cashew cheese. |
 |
| The night Irene arrived, we used our oven to make some yummy roasted potatoes. I added mine to a kale salad along with cashew cheese, avocado and raw kraut. |
 |
| My Whole Foods had the new Chia Kombucha's by GT. I bought all 3 flavors to try (unfortunately). I am not a fan!!! Iccckk, so slimy. Now what to do with the other 2 bottles I have? |
 |
| Good thing I have a whole case of Trilogy Kombucha to make up for the icky Chia Kombucha! I joked on Facebook that this was to get me through Irene. But the truth is, GT's Kombucha was on sale 2 for $4.00. So I picked up a case of my favorite flavor! |
 |
| I forgot to mention that I won 3rd place in the Sunwarrior Smoothie Contest!!! I will be getting a t-shirt, a shaker bottle and 3 products of my choice. I chose 3 bags of the Chocolate Protein Powder, since it is my favorite. Anyway, my lovely friend Mariel entered too and won 4th place (by only 1 vote!). She gets the same prize package I do so it wasn't a big deal. She held a contest on her blog for everyone who voted for her (which I did because I voted for all of my friends that entered) and I won! She sent me a package of One Lucky Duck Chocolate Chip Cookies and some of her homemade raw-vegan "Funner-Butter Cookies!" |
 |
| Mariel is wickedly talented! And only 16 years old! I am so jealous that she knows all about eating healthy at such a young age. I wish I was eating raw and vegan when I was 16! Instead I was eating packs of aspartame filled gum as meals. Her cookies reminded me of Peanut Butter Lara Bars. So delicious! Thanks Mariel! |
 |
| And finally, a raw vegan mudslide pie that I picked up at Dean's last week when we visited my Mother-in-law. This was as amazing as it looks!!! |
 |
| Have a great day all! XO |

That's the Candle Cafe chocolate mudslide, isn't it? They're AMAZING, so glad you liked it!
I love all the avocado appearances and the salads. I didn't know GT's made chia kombucha!! I wonder if I should try it? The synergy is one of the best flavors, though, you're right.
Glad everyone's okay there.
mmmm. looks amazing!!! and u r welcome 4 the cookies! they were soo good i had to let someone try them! (;
That avocado fanned across the salad looks amazing. *drools* :) Glad you made it through the hurricane unscathed!

So glad the storm passed without too much damage and eveyone safe! And thanks for directing us to Mariel's blog. It's awesome that she's so health-aware at such a young age.
ha! I saw the Chia Kombucha today in whole foods and though to myself..."eww. that looks a bit too gooey for my liking" Glad you confirmed that.
congrats on the blog win AND the SW placement of 3rd! Very impressive btw! Congrats!
So glad you and your fam made it thru the hurricane. Yuck! So glad I don't have to deal with those.
That avo salad looks sooooooooooo good! I want it.
And GT's makes chia kombucha? I'll probably try it. I tried the Mamma Chia drink (or is it Chia Mamma?) and liked it. It's not kombucha though, more like a lemonade with chia seeds. It's different and I liked it but didn't LOVE it. Anyway, love GT's regular ol' kombucha drinks. Yum!
Glad to hear you survived Irene. We did, too.
Congrats on the Sun Warrior win. I would have voted if I was on Facebook. Congrats to Muriel, too. She's so sweet.
