HOLY MACAROONS!!! Thank you guys so much for your generous bids for Angelaโ€™s Shop 4 a Cause and congrats to Erin E., the winner! I canโ€™t believe they went for such a hefty amount โ€“money to a truly excellent cause. I promise to make them extra delicious (perhaps sprinkle gold on them) and throw some fun goodies in there for you too, Erin <3 To those of you who didnโ€™t win, I promise a โ€˜roon giveaway in the near future.

I also LOVED reading your โ€œEat, Pray, Loveโ€s from last night. Your comments were beautiful and so much fun to read ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for making my night! Between your comments and the macaroon success, Iโ€™m oozing with happiness and mush like a goober over here ๐Ÿ˜‰

So, I finally got my Indian Food Fix.

I was so stoked that they had Gajar Halwa (check out my healthier vegan version here), along with dal, veggies and cabbage.

With roti, of course ๐Ÿ™‚

I ended up saving a lot of the roti because while I was waiting for Jeni to call me to meet her for dinner, I had two coffee cups full of Puffins to take the โ€œedgeโ€ off- I was a hungry monkey after teaching.

To rewind (a lot) before teaching spin and Zumba, I was feeling a little sluggish.

Green juice to the rescue ๐Ÿ˜€ (aka Raw Vegan Redbull)

Ingredients:

– 1 pear

– 1 apple

– spinach

– 1/2 cucumber

– 1/2 lemon

with 1 t spirulina stirred in

Itโ€™s funny because even in my coffee drinking days (in college some days I would have 16 cupsโ€ฆ not joking), coffee never gave me as much energy as green juice does. I totally believe in raw enzyme powahhhhhh ๐Ÿ™‚

Are you a coffee drinker? Former coffee addict like me? Green juice junkie? Tea lover? (I love me some teaโ€ฆ especially mint)

Well Iโ€™m off to walk the puppers on the base trail, head to work, then getting a massage and facial. The girls and I are seeing Sex and the City tonight- has anyone seen it already?!?

Have a great day <3

Something to do: Day 4 strength workout of the Summer Shape Up! Todayโ€™s legs dayโ€ฆ get ready ๐Ÿ™‚

Meet me back here later for a homemade brown rice horchata recipe
