Vote For Me and Rockin' Raw

Hey All! Lots going on here!! First, you all know how much I love Sunwarrior Protein Powder! I use it EVERYDAY! Well, I entered a smoothie contest on Facebook. You just have to "Like" Sunwarrior's Page, then "like" my smoothie to vote. I know a few other bloggers entered as well, you can vote for more then one smoothie! As of yesterday, I was in 6th place!!! I would love your help! ;)  And feel free to friend me, if we aren't friends already!


In other news, T and I were dog sitting my Mother-in-law's pug, Sueshe, over the weekend. She is in bad health. Overweight, 10 years old, rotted teeth, can barely walk, nails are really long.. etc. My Mother-in-law doesn't have the time she use too, so we asked if we can "adopt" Sueshe from her. Sueshe is still here, so it's looking good! ;) We brought her to get her nails cut, got her some stuff for her teeth, been feeding her healthy, and have been trying to exercise her (she can only walk a few houses). All of that plus some extra love from us and she is doing a lot better. So we will see. I know taking on another dog is a lot for me right now, but she has never seemed so happy. She really loves Baby A and Ginger really loves having her around. :) Here she is.. doing yoga.. ha ha!
And of course, Miss Ginger, on the couch!
 On Sunday.. T, Baby A and I ventured to Brooklyn for a lovely little  raw brunch at Rockin' Raw!
Believe, Inspire, Love (on the wall of Rockin' Raw).
T and I both started with a Watermelon Cooler which was watermelon, ice, and ginger. So refreshing! YUM! 
T ordered the pancakes all of the brunch items came with soup, salad and raw bread with a "cream cheese" spread. He liked the pancakes but didn't like the soup (I am not surprised, raw soup is pretty hardcore in my opinion, I am not a huge fan myself).  He also stated that he like Pure Food and Wine better. Humph, what a raw snob! ;)
I ordered the Fried "Egg" with hashbrowns and zucchini "bacon". Yes, that "egg" is raw and vegan, it does look creepily real! Ha ha! I found the dish to be great. The "bacon" was crispy, the "egg" firm and the texture was DEAD ON, the soup was tasty, salad was delicious and hashbrowns were just okay. They were made of jicama, didn't remind me of hashbrowns at all. But I got the idea. :)
For dessert we took home a Raweo and a Mini Cinnabun. So good!!! I liked the Raweo better then the ones at One Lucky Duck. The filling was really creamy. And the Cinnabun was full of flavor! Two thumbs up!
Over all, Rockin' Raw was good. Not amazing, but not horrible. I would like to go back to try their lunch menu, but I not sure T would want to go to Brooklyn for raw food again! ;)

Anyway, have a great day all and don't forget to vote!!! :)

Another product you turned me onto! Sunwarrior! SOOO good. I've tried every powder out there and nothing tastes as good as this. Can't wait to try Chocolate. I hope you win good stuff in the contest!!

LOVE that Sueshe is getting your extra tender loving care! Maybe while you're doing P90x she can do Pug90x!
