An Engaging Weekend

Hello Loves! I hope you all had a great weekend!! On Friday, my sister got engaged to her long term boyfriend! I am so ecstatic for her!!! <3


Anyway, T brought me home raw wraps he spotted at the Health Food Store! :) He is working in a different area and has been getting sandwiches there for lunch. I was so excited to try these!
I made a raw wrap for lunch: broccoli sprouts, avocado, raw kraut and arugula. So delicious! I was happy that the wrap actually wraps and doesn't crumble like most gluten free wraps do. We hit up the health food store together over the weekend and I grabbed raw bread made by the same company. That will be in my next post!
I made Lauren's Comfort Cabbage Soup one night and it came out so good! I had 3 bowls!!!
I was super happy when I spotted So Delicious Mint Chocolate Coconut Milk! As I have mentioned in the past, Mint Chocolate is my favorite flavor! This does not disappoint. So yummy! My sister and I shared some on Sunday, to celebrate her engagement!!! 
I also made myself a decadent smoothie with some: Mint Chocolate Coconut Milk, Spinach, Chlorella, E3Live, Vega Choc-a-lot shake powder, frozen banana and almond butter. AMAZING!
I also grabbed these Spicy Flax Snax at the health food store. I have never seen this flavor. They were pretty good, but the Pizza Flax Snax are still my favorite.
On Sunday, my sister came up to celebrate her engagement and we met up with my bestie sister-in-law for lunch and shopping (Baby A too!). I had a big salad of mesclun, broccoli, shredded vegetables, chickpeas and dried artichoke. 
How was your weekend? Anything exciting going on in your life? ;)

Have a great day! XO

Which store did you get the Coconut Milk Chocolate? I also live in Kansas City and have been searching for it. The Whole Foods on 119th and Metcalf didn't have it.

Really happy you liked the cabbage soup---yay! So exciting about your sister...wedding bells are ringing! I have seen those wraps here in NYC a lot and have been wanting to try them - glad you gave them a good review. T is so nice to bring you home goodies like that :) The most exciting thing going on in my life is my new relationship...I'm overjoyed and beyond happy.

What a "goodie" packed blog post! I've got to find those tomato wraps! And the Chocolate Mint Coconut Milk ... OMG! My favorite is chocolate mint, too! Your smoothie, wrap and soup made me drool. Always creating such yummy grub, you are! :-) How exciting about your sister's engagement! Fun, fun, fun!

That smoothie sounds so good, I love chocolate/mint combo I have never seen that coconut milk.

Congrats to your sister on her engagement. So exciting!

That smoothie looks right up my alley. I could live off of greens and chocolate (sometimes I think I really do).

Those wraps really wrap? So cool.
