Back in Business!

Hey All! TGIF! What a week! I woke up on Tuesday night with an 102 degree fever. Apparently, my Mastitis, from nursing, came back. Thankfully, with massage, lots of nursing and a heating pad, it is gone. Hopefully never to return!!!! So, that's why I am lacking on the posts this week.


Anyway, I had received an Amazon gift card as a Christmas gift, so I ordered some raw goodies from The Chocolatree Cafe (raw and vegan): Pizza Bread and Chocolate Pecan Brownie Bites.


The brownies were rich and soft, they didn't take like a raw brownie at all.. (don't mind my chipping nail polish)
The Pizza Bread was OUT.OF.THIS.WORLD! Baby A and I shared some and before I knew it, the whole bag was gone! I must order more, these were THAT good!
Remember how I mentioned a squirrel ate a hole in my Raw Food World goodies? Well, I emailed them and explained and they were kind enough to send me a new bar!!!! This time I got it before any animal could!
HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!! Wow Wow WOW! So freakin delicious! The chocolate reminds me of the kind your get in a box on Valentines Day, it falls apart in your mouth and the middle is ooey gooey caramel. LOVE!!!!
One day for lunch I made this sandwich which was raw bread with hummus, spinach, avocado, raw kraut and a Sunshine Burger.
For dinner one night, I made quinoa with chickpeas and topped it with avocado, raw coconut aminos and raw olives.
T insisted that I try the lemon, cayenne, agave drink from Blue Print. I told him 100x that I could easily make this at home, but he loved it so much, he said I had to try. Yummy! So refreshing and tasted just like lemonade. I would of definitely loved this when I was pregnant.
Have a great weekend! XO

You poor thing. I hope it doesn't come back again.

Hopefully, those treats made up for it. That brownie doesn't look raw at all, and the caramel bar rawks!

Good to hear you feel better. I heard that is terribly painful too.

I'm so going to get that caramel bar for my son for Valentine's Day.
I might get another for me as well. hee hee.

Oh and how is the squirrel issue?

That's great the raw food world sent you a new bar! Love them. I just got that bar in the mail; glad to hear it's awesome :)

Ouch, hope the mastitis stays away for good.

Caramel bar, wow you have me drooling, the sandwich looks great too. Must be nice to have some easy stuff to assemble when you don't feel well and chasing after a little one!

The drink sounds like master cleanser drink. Never had cayenne in my lemonade but could be invigorating.

Have a great weekend.

I'm glad you're on the mend, and hopefully for the last time! Your treats look so good. I really need to start shopping online. I think I'd love the pizza bread.

Where do you get your raw bread?

foodfeud said...

I'm really curious about those raw olives! What are they like? The chocolate looks amazing, but on the simpler side; so does yr burger! Hope you continue to heal.

Ouch, mastitis is really uncomfortable! I had it once & the dr told me to stop nursing on that side. I nearly exploded before I realized it was bad advice.

The sandwich looks really awesome and so does the lemon cayenne juice!

Lauren said...

Hey Ryan, my hubby gets the raw bread at The Health Shoppe in Mooristown, Nj. He works near there sometimes. You can probably order online as well.

Food feud: raw olives are really fresh, and yummy, not e eryone likes them because they have an earthy taste. I love them!

Ryan said...

Thanks Lauren!! The bread looks so good!!!

Sorry about the mastitis. I got lucky with both kids and never got it. I got plugged ducts out the wazoo, but thankfully they never turned to mastitis. Wishing you happy boobs again soon!

I love the looks of that caramel bar!

Yeouch! Glad you're on the mend!

All your eats look so tasty. I wanna try the pizza bread and the chocolate bar. Mmm!
