Last Wednesday was so different from this Wednesday!
I treated my cousin to a fabulous LMFAO concert last week to send her off in style to her first year in Dental School (I’m hoping she will become a holistic dentist!!!)
We partied like rock stars, danced our a$$es off and every part of our body was covered in glitter by the end of the night!
The infamous GLITTER GUN! Glitter Glitter Everywhere, Glitter Glitter in my Hair!
I love my cousin, everything about her, how could I not? She is my mini me!
Morning:
This Wednesday was much easier to wake up to…. It started of course with my hot lemon water and a dash of cayenne
Enjoying a hot cup of Larry’s Beans Fair Trade Organic Coffee while checking my Facebook Fan Page…
TIP – If you “Like” My Fan Page, feel free to post questions/comments/random healthy thoughts on my wall – I love to respond to them!
After running a mile as fast as I could and brutal stair monster workout at the Uptown Y – I enjoyed this at my desk at work….The Hari Shake! Same concoction as 8/15 Monday….
And of course I was kind to my burning muscles by adding Jay Robb Protein to my breakfast
I had my usual mid-morning snack – veggies and almondsI only had a short time to eat today – my collard wraps were made in a super hurry!
Can you tell? I enjoyed skimming Creative Loafing to see if Luna’s Living Kitchen won best Vegetarian Restaurant in Charlotte…. of course it did! Did I have any doubt – no! LOVE THAT PLACE. If you are ever in town or haven’t been – go immediately.
My other favorite Halcyon Flavors of the Earth won best new restaurant!!! Yeah!!!! Their farm salad is incredible! Pictures on my facebook fan page 🙂
Back at work, I had a snack attack. It started with these sprouted wheat pretzels that are addictive! I talked about them in this post and video!!!
Half of a Parfait Porridge – I promise recipe will.come.soon.And then there was a chocolate breakdown. Ate my favorite vegan chocolate from Dolphin Natural Choccolates…Cashew, Coconut and Raisin… oh it hit the spot! I get these at Berrybrook Farms Natural Foods Store.
It was a two tea day – very cold in the office
After work – I rushed like a banshee out of hell to Yoga One. Daniel was teaching, I swear he has powers beyond comprehension. I came into class wanting to leave after two breaths, and then it was over in a snap. It felt like I didn’t even blink my eyes. How does a yoga teacher do this! I had an AMAZINGLY ENERGIZING & CALMING PRACTICE – Thank you Daniel!!!!
I made some juice before jumping in the shower…
And I started steaming some broccoli – but only after I washed it real good. No bugs (extra protein) today!
Then I got out of the shower to find these… Homemade turkey burgers on the grill! My husband can grill better than anyone I know (except my Father in law!)….
This was my plate…. I love raw onions with my turkey burgers. Notice the size of my burger – 3 ounces. I try not to have more than this amount of protein at any given time. You just don’t need more to feel satisfied!
The perfect bite – Red onion, pickle, burger and organic ketchup! YUM. And yes, for dessert – I did it again. So sue me!
Glitter everywhere! sounds like a blast. What a great way to help your cousin kick off dental school. She definitely is your mimi me, you two could seriously pass as sisters. Never had Larry Bean’s Coffee, I absolutely must try it now if you recommend it!
Yes Larry’s Beans are amazing – they are roasted right here in NC… all of their flavors are great. I like Frenchy French Roast and Mocha! Enjoy!
