Front-Loading Fruits

Isn’t she lovely?!?

It’s good to be back.  I missed you guys!  I’m not gonna lie though – the husband and I took advantage of the few camera free days and ate a bunch of crap (those of you who’re thinking “but you always eat a bunch of junk,” this was actually worse, gasp).  So this morning I front-loaded my day with antioxidant rich fruit.

First a tasty kiwi.

I love the taste of kiwis but eating them skin on makes me gag and removing the skin requires Iron Chef-like knife skills.  However, my Kiwi Bowl method works perfectly!

Next I tried this Siggi’s Pomegranate Passion Fruit.

The yogurt was disturbingly tart but topped with blueberries, half a minneola, and ~1.5t of agave syrup it was perfection.

A healthy start to the day is always energizing.

And I needed the energy.  Adam and I had lots and lots of fun this weekend, not limited to dinner at a new Vegan spot with Katie (me), purchasing/playing RockBand with friends (him), getting Adam hooked on Buffy reruns, purchasing my Bloggie Secret Valentine gift, and seeing “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus.”  Whew!  All that didn’t leave much time for work so we actually set the alarms for 6am to finish homework this morning.

My homework is done but I have a long list of to-do’s for the day still:

  1. volunteering shift at the hospital
  2. errands – mail, bank, etc.
  3. a bit of blog business
  4. a bit of school business
  5. getting my new computer set up
  6. laundry
  7. a beyond necessary trip to the gym for training
  8. dinner

Yikes, I better get going!

it’s a 2fer day1. How do you eat your kiwi?  2. Did you see “The Imaginarium,” what’d you think?

  2. Love the new laptop! My son bought two of those Toshibas, one for him and one for his fiancee. They are very happy with them. Does yours have Windows 7?
    I don’t care for kiwi but my kids always ate them out of the skin like that.
    Amazing how our bodies crave healthy stuff after excessive junk (and vice versa ha!)

  3. My husband and I saw the movie! We both enjoyed it a lot. I’m a huge Monty Python/Terry Gilliam fan and thought the movie definitely matched the style of his other films. I also liked how he incorporated the other actors into the movie.

    I agree with Janetha, I liked the blueberry Siggi’s, but it is SUPER expensive!
