meet up

I had a great Sunday lunch with Kelsey at The Cupboard’s cafe.  I hadn’t been to the Cupboard since last year; I’m ashamed to admit I live less than 10 minutes away.  I plan to shop there and eat at the cafe later this month, it is a great little spot in Denton.

I was super excited to meet a fellow Healthy Living Blogger right in the same town!

The Cafe and was off in the corner of the store and  it was a nice quiet atmosphere.

We ordered lunch and sat down not knowing bees would be following us from table to table outside…No Bueno.

Bloggers in action

I decided to be gutsy and try tempeh for the first time and it did not disappoint.  I found it to be very chewy and nutty. 

Soy Tempeh marinated in Spicy Jamaican Jerk Sauce with Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion, Tamari Mayonnaise, served hot, on toasted bread.

After having bees attack us outside we went in and looked around the grocery store.  Kelsey spotted Silk ”Pumpkin Spice”!  She said the pumpkin spice was amazing and I must agree…anything Pumpkin is yummy.

After searching a bit, I located my favorite ” Berries GoMega”  Odwalla bar.

My take on the ”Cranberry” Kombucha.

A drink you learn to like…eventually!

I tried the Cranberry flavor but I swear it was just ”red” vinegar….bad smell. (currently drinking the rest for Monday breakfast)

Lunch was great and  I had a blast getting to know Kelsey. We talked about food, fitness and talks of a 5k and working out together….can’t wait! Blogger Meet Ups are always fun and you learn so much about the person behind the blog.

Check out Kelsey’s blog and the Three Giveaways she has going on right now! Yes, 3 Awesome Giveaways that will be ending November 15…so hurry over and show some comment love.

Tomorrow, I’ll show you what I picked up at The Cupboard to snack on.

Have a lovely Monday,

Blogger Fun

by Nicci on 09/20/2009

I’m not the type that likes crowds, but I had a good time at the Grape Fest and met up with fellow blogger Katyee (Kaytee Says Eat)

She is so sweet.  I have to say sorry, once again b/c I ended up running really late b/c of furniture movers.

I finally found  Kaytee and we grabbed something to eat from a Mediterranean stand that was grilling.

We both tried the chicken & hummus sandwich.  They really loaded on the hummus too.  I was a bad food blogger and didn’t catch the name of the stand. Ooops

”Tropical lemonade” which was really just regular lemonade but I was just happy it was cold.

We felt it was too warm outside to walk around sipping wine, so we went with dessert.

I went with the Mango Gelato, which was extremely tasty :)
