Face Burger + Goji promo
Helloooooo 😀 Hope you’re having a great morning! Loved all of your comments to Mara’s pizza guest post… just wished I lived a little closer to her so I could take the leftovers off her hands 😉
Last night, after errands/work/packing all day, we met up with some friends at Bleu Pub for dinner.
The Pilot and I split a blurry Greek salad:
and for my entree, I chose the vegan black bean burger with no bun (my fave!) + the best restaurant sweet potato fries
The Pilot had the “Dirty Bird” which is a beef burger, topped with bacon and a over easy egg.
It was as big as his face 😀 
That’s a ferocious burger face right there 🙂
We came back to the casa, chilled with the puppers and called it a night <3
This morning, I’m about to do the workout thang and then will most likely make some b-fast cookie dough cereal.
I’m pretty stoked because SunFoods, the makers of quite a few of my favorite superfoods that you see on the bloggy, generously offered to do a fun goji berry promo for those of you who have been wanting to try them, or those who need to replenish their stash.
Sunfoods supplies incredible goji berries. By far the plumpest and most delicious ones I’ve tried, and I’ve been around the goji berry block a few times 😉
From their website:
Sunfood’s Organic Goji Berries grow in protected Chinese valleys in million-year-old soil in wild and cultivated areas. The plants grow like bushes with vines that reach over 15 feet. The berries are never touched by hand as they will oxidize and turn black if touched while fresh. They are shaken onto mats, then dried in the shade.
Our Organic Goji Berries are a deep-red, dried fruit about the same size as a raisin. The Goji berry tastes somewhat like a cross between a cranberry and a cherry.
Out of the 8,000 food-herbs in the systems of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the thousands of years of history that back it, Goji Berries are considered the number one food-herb. They have the number one ranking.
Goji berries are an antioxidant POWERHOUSE – the little guys also contain vitamin A and are used to treat diabetes, high blood pressure and age-related eye problems
They taste great, too 😀
The promo is $15 for 8 oz and you get a free Raw Food Community tote bag. There are only 50 available and they’ll go fast. *Click here* to get your goji on 😉
Off to SWEAT! What’s your workout of choice today??
See ya later this afternoon <3
xoxo

My workout choice was going to be a run, but the weather is currently wet, drizzly, and 45 degrees. I may have to hit the community center for a swim instead. I’m going to wait it out til noon to see how it looks outside.
Go Pilot go! Well, it’s digested by now haha. I love goji berries but they are so dry sometimes….good to know these are plump!
LOL @ Pilot’s burger face. Ferocious!
I just signed up for my very first Zumba class with a girlfriend and I’m super excited! I haven’t done a class in years- mostly been doing the running thing, so it will be a nice change! I’m pumped to see your video 🙂
whoo hoo! have so much fun!
Today I’m thinking about lifting some weights, dancing around my living room for as long as I feel like it, and maybe some time on the stationary bike.
yup-sounds good to me 🙂
Wow that burger is ginormous!! I am using the Garlic Gold Sea Salt Nuggets I got from you at HLS today in my Crock Pot chili, super excited!!
Workout of choice today, day two of tackling the yoga challenge!! Loving it 🙂
Love that quote by the way!
holy mother of burgers?!! mmm sweet potato fries so tasty! workout today? i did 50min ashtanga practice before 7am!!! who.am.i?!
you are AMAZING 🙂
My favorite burger is at Red Robin and it has bacon and a fried egg on top — I get maybe 1 per year, but it is so delicous 🙂
Tonight the plan is Jackie Warner strength circuit dvd — I love it!
I did elliptical, shoulders and arms this morn! Had the gym to myself. 🙂
My workout of choice is my second day of P90x! So far, I love it! 😀
please let me know what you think of it at the end- i want to try it!
Day 25 P90X. Love this programme, it only gets better Megan!!!
Never commented before but love the blog, keep up the good work 🙂
Best wishes form London,
Rosa
I’ll be going for my shortest run of the week (3 miles) followed by Boing! or if that doesn’t pan out, Core Fusion. I haven’t done Boing yet so I’m pretty pumped and I hope my BF doesn’t bail.
My workout today = 2-hour dance practice with Suave Slav!
Yum! Those fries look awesome!
Also, I just bought some Maca powder and don’t know what to do with it. I know you use it so can you give me some pointers please!
it’s fun in smoothies, oatmeal and cookies- it tastes lovely with chocolate and remember a little goes a long way
Just ordered the goji berries. I buy some at a store nearby but they are dry & shriveled and I swear, sometimes …………DUSTY ??? At least they look like it. Can’t wait to get some good ones ! Thanks Gina 🙂
these ones are seriously amazing- you’ll love them 🙂
i haaaate dry and shriveled goji berries
my workout for today is a walk across campus (40 minutes of torturous hills!!) and probably some weights at home later on today.
Been craving sweet potato fries all week and THIS post didn’t help:) Time to make them I guess!!
This morning I got up at 5am and ran 4 miles of sprints…woot!
Babs
that’s a massive burger! it’s funny…i have a picture of my hubby doing that exact same thing with a burger the size of his head. boys will be boys, right? 🙂
I’m taking a day off from formal exercise as I have to babysit three adorable munchkins tonight. Our workout will be running and dancing around the house and chasing their dog around! 🙂
Holy crap that burger is HUGE! LOL Love the ferocious burger face pic:)
Hahahaha that picture of Pilot stuffing his face CRACKED me up!
Quick question for you…I want to jump on this yoga love, and was hoping you could give me a suggestion on a good yoga dvd I can find at my local Target. I did a few months of Pilates (unsure if its the same at all) so do you have a certain dvd you like thats good for beginners but also challenging?
the rodney yee ones are good for beginners and kind of slow paced. i really love mandy ingber’s yogalosophy dvd but you have to order it online
Those sweet potato fries look delish! My workout of choice was the elliptical. I ran yesterday and my back is pretty sore today. A while back, a chiropractor told me that doing the elliptical can help to stretch out your back and relieve some of the pain. Its been working for me 🙂
My workout of choice is hot yoga but I’m dabbling back in running again.
My workout today is packing and moving boxes. Ive been doing it for a few days straight!
Does 3 flights of stairs with groceries count as a workout?! If so, then done!;) Hoping to fit in some strength training if I don’t fall asleep first… baby woke me up at 5:15am and I’ve been a busy little bee since then!
Wow, that burger is massive. And it looks pretty good. As do those sweet potato fries.
I don’t know if you’re friends with PB on Facebook, but we went out for lunch the other day and he had a corned beef sandwich at this deli that had 1 LB of meat. Disgusting! Anyway, in order to get the sandwich in his mouth he had to make the same face as the pilot… and enjoyed every minute of it (yes, he finished the entire thing and proceeded to still weigh the exact same on the scale the next day). Insanity!
I hope your pilot and my phillyboy get to meet soon! They would have fun eating burgers together hahahahahahah
I definitely laughed out loud at the picture of the Pilot and his burger. Those sweet potato fries look amazing too!
My workout of choice today was Insanity…quick question. I just started and I noticed on my heart rate monitor that I don’t burn as many calories during the workout as I would if I had, say run 5-6 miles. Was that the case for you? Is it just that your body continues to burn more calories after because of the HIIT level?
When I did Insanity, my heart rate was always relatively low! way lower than when i was just jogging on the treadmill. I thought that was super weird :/
Mmm black bean burger? sweet potato fries? goji? Everything sounds yumalicious! I’m going to work my booty out dancing tonight 🙂
Hehe the Pilot looks like he was really enjoying that burger!
My workout choice today was the elliptical (this workout here: http://bit.ly/aokNkt) and a session with my trainer. We were doing a bunch of stability exercises which were a lot harder than I thought they’d be. My newest “trick” is balancing on the stability ball on my knees, something I couldn’t do last week but I’m getting to be quite a champ! I hope you have an awesome workout and a great day! 🙂
I have to workout from home so I’m breaking out the resistance bands for a circuit workout. Not the best, but works for today. 🙂
Off day, maybe a walk or light bike ride. Lots of work with clients. 🙂
Black bean burgers are so good! I usually order one when I go to Chili’s and it is the tastiest thing (not) on the menu!
Yesterday I swam, tennis-ed, and ran…so probably a walk and a run today. Something lighter!
I tried ur cookie dough cereal today… OMG amazing!!!
Hey,
actually my workout today has been Zumba. It’s not popular here at all but I managed to get the DVDs and have started learning the steps, so did the basic step learning workout once before and today for the second time.
It’s alot of fun and I’m kinda glad I don’t do it at the gym because I’m sure i look like a huge goofball trying to move my hips! But it’s fun and that’s what counts!
I live for sweet potato fries…yum!!!
I just signed up for a year unlimited membership at an awesome hot vinyasa yoga studio 3 blocks from my apartment (super excited!) I plan on going to a level 2-3 sweaty 90 minute class tonight!!! I like to go to a higher level class once a week to work hard and remind myself of what I am working toward (arm balances/inversions).
Thanks for the awesome goji promo! I have not bought any of these yet (mostly due to the steep price at whole foods), so I am excited to try them! Do you use them mainly as a garnish to your meals or have you ever used them in a smoothie or other recipes?
My workout of choice today is going for 2 quickie miles of cardio and lifting for 15 mins and doing 10 mins of yoga stretching, get it all in, the best of all worlds, in less than 45 minutes. That’s my speed 🙂
I love the picture of the Pilot savoring his burger. Everyone should enjoy their food, and he looks to be a happy camper in that pic.
Have a great Thursday and it’s great how you’re always hooking your readers up w/ the Open Sky deals!
🙂
Whew, that is a serious burger that the pilot got! 😉 My workout of choice today: already did 20 min of yoga before work. Then doing an interval workout with my running group tonight. Should be tough and leave the legs a bit sore!
Well, you have yet to lead me astray as I love my chia seeds and goat cheese, and I’ve been dying to try goji berries. Just ordered mine! WHEEE!
I tried Zumba for the first time this morning! It was fun, but I felt so clumsy! I’m sure no one really noticed aside from the ladies on either side of me that I came close to running into. The place was packed!
Love the idea of a no bun burger with sweet potato fries…avoid the carb overload and achieve a yummy/balanced dinner 🙂
Work out today? Tennis! My favorite sport in the world, I am going to play some mixed doubles for 90 minutes and hopefully get an additional 30 minutes of singles in. I love tennis b/c I don’t even realize I am exercising…totally in the zone and enjoy every moment of it.
Today is the revolving stair case of death and then weights with the cables.
My workout today will be placing river rock into our landscaping . . . remember when I told you my man bought me mulch for our anniversary? I got these for no reason at all – what a guy!

I love goji berries, but I have such a hard time finding them!
Today I just did an easy workout of 20 mins on the elliptical and 10 mins on the bike. Just enough to get my legs moving!
I love how men always get burgers topped with protein topped with more protein! That’s something I honestly don’t know if I could ever do!
