We Have Life
Hey guys! It’s THE WEEKEND! What are you up to??
Remember those herbs we planted last week?
We have LIIIIIIIFE!
The dill is growing so quickly…
And so is the RAINBOW CHARD!
The future holds many bountiful salads 🙂
A blue jay has been munching out of the bird feeder
while this sneaky squirrel keeps trying to figure out a way to get in on the action.
(it creeps me out how rat-like squirrels are. Mayjah shudders)
Sorry, buddy. We bought squirrel-proof for a reason, foo 😉
This morning’s breakfast was the classic oats + egg combo:
Oat bran with Sun Warrior, cinnamon, blueberries and banana
and a 2-egg white puff with nutritional yeast and cayenne
+ mint tea in my favorite mug
We’re off to the gym and then LOOKING AT A NEW CAR! We’ll see what happens…
Enjoy your Saturday!
xoxo,

Something to read: Restaurant Tells Diners to Eat Up (thank you to a bloggy for sending me the link!)
Something to watch:
So awesome 🙂
Yay for your herbs growing. 🙂 Hope you have a good Saturday!
I ordered a Vita-Mix and can’t wait until it arrives! Other than awesome smoothies, what do you do with yours? Have you ever made nut butter with it? Thanks! Love your little garden, by the way 🙂
ehhh i didn’t succeed with nut butters -i want to try again!- but coconut butter, hummus, soup, almond four, everything. you’ll love it!
Your herbs are great! I need to plant some ASAP. Hopefully I won’t kill them this year, like I usually do! Haha – I love how the squirrel will try so hard only to find out it’s gross food!
Omg that video is too funny! Thanks for the lil’ laugh!
Greeeeeat video. Can’t believe I hadn’t seen this on Twitter yet.
I just got my pic taken w Shaun T and thought of you, he’s a sweetheart!
where did you meet him?!? i’m so jealous!!!!
if you’d like, i’d love to see the pic if you’ll email it to me! 🙂
tricky tricky article. Im trying to practice intuitive eating myself to prevent binges-but on the other hand fully appreciate his motives. I dont know what the portion sizes are-but regardless, it isnt ituitive to eat something you simply dont care for. If he were to create an amuse-bouche or one-bite menu-bothhis and the customers mission would be satisfied.

That newspaper article just made my day! Anyone working in the restaurant industry knows how much gets wasted, I had SUCH a hard time dealing with that as a waitress (especially cuz it was a small organic local restaurant, where wasting for seemed like such a crime…). I think everyone should be this hardcore, lol.
The herbs look great! Fresh herbs make all food dishes taste even better! And they look so pretty as a garnish as well!
Love the blue jay!
Your garden is looking great! Wish we could have one here.
LOL, that video is so funny!
Squirrels are so cute! and much more entertaining to watch than birds
That article is really interesting… but as someone who often can’t finish all of what she orders from restaurants for medical reasons, I have to say I’d be a little bummed out if they told me to get lost and never return. I am a huge fan of taking home leftovers! Seems a bit extreme to me.
Sasquatch is the BEST!!!! You have to go, everyone is crazy silly all weekend!
That’s so funny about squirrels. Really, they’re just rats with a good press agent.
Love both the video and the article!! I have to say though, I don’t think people should be forced to finish their meals if they’re full. What about asking people to bring their own container from home if they think they’ll have leftovers?
Good luck with the car search!
That article is interesting! It reminds me a bit of when I go out for all you can eat sushi and the restaurant will charge you for anything left over. Luckily I always devour my sushi! 😉
Yay for gardening! I just put human HAIR around mine to keep rabbits away. I’m glad that you don’t seem to need that solution. 🙂
I HATE squirrels, so I feel your pain. Last year my window was open a crack and two got in. Thank the lord my husband was home and shooed them out but I was screaming and freaking out. yay for herbs and veggies!
I just started my very first garden – I can’t wait to eat some yummy fresh things out of there!
new car shopping is fun!
i cant wait to have a garden 🙁 itd be so nice , but i do not have the space right now where i am living
At my university, the squirrels aren’t afraid of people! My friend on EMS said that in one semester they got 50 calls about squirrel attacks, and that’s in a 6000-person school!
I think all the rain is helping our gardens. I have itty bitty tomatoes, eggplant and peppers and herbs galore.I heard the new Get him to the Greek movie is really funny. May go see it this weekend. (after house is cleaned) Have a good night.
hahah EVERYONE here goes to sasquatch. Thats too funny of a video!
Too funny!!!
Question for loosing some thigh weight – should women be watching their fruit intake do you think while slimming down because of the sugars? Hmmm I should google this! I love my veg, but fruit is so much more convenient!
What kind of car???? I love car shopping!
XXOO
Yay for home grown herbs! I bought a basil plant today and am so excited to take care of it 🙂
Mmm your oats sound so yummy right now…I’m always in the mood for oatmeal! And I totally want to challenge that dude in a dance-off!

Ah, The Gorge is seriously the most gorgeous place to go for a outdoor concert, having that view behind the stage.
Hope you had fun car shopping!!
yes, it was so much fun! 🙂
What a great feeling to grow your own food! I have tried myself, but the dang squirrels (%$#%@!!!) dig them up. May you be blessed with better luck than I 🙂
Aww, hello little sprouts! 🙂 Good luck with them.
