“I’m anal about my gas!!!!”

That would be the quote of the day, when I was talking about how paranoid I was since I ran out of gas a couple of weeks ago like baffoon.  Kim and Christie thought it was hilarious that both “anal” and “gas” were used correctly in a sentence without the intended hilarity that ensued.

When last we left….we were en route for an Earth Feezy trip in the beautiful Georgia sun.  (lord it sounds like some Superhero show montage)

Go ahead and get jealous of the jorts, right here and now.

Kim found a fun veggie for posing.

And I think we are all passed the point of needing an intervention for love of a certain crispy pirate’s hind quarters…

And I finally brought down and bought it…

The thought of a fermented, raw, tea had me apprehensive to say the least.

I gotta say……..this was NOT good times.

The flavor was odd, and vinegary.  It also was wayyyyy to carbonated for my liking.  I understand all the healthy benefits, and perhaps I just got the wrong flavor.  Between all the bad’s I listed, plus the gunk floating around (I know, I know…it’s good for me…calm down)….I was simply not.a.fan.  I rarely have to force myself to finish something, and this definitely took some “Fear Factor”-ish encouragement from Kim and Christie for me to chug this bad girl down.  *shutter*

What better to clense the pallet then my precious Chia?!?!?  Had this amaaaazing Chia bar to make up for the lack luster Kombucha aka Kombarfa.

Dear Chia,

Thank you for being extremely delicious, and for not being full of nutritional loogies like your Kombucha cousin.

Sincerely,

Blogger Boy

Time to shop!!

Whilst we patiently waited on dinner…we hit up Barnes & Noble to kill some time!  Got some good reads in!

Also found a health magazine where I found some new torture devices for my classes next week.  Muhahahahha

And when you see this fancy equine….it can only mean one thing…

P.F. Chizzle!

We started off with a fantastic veggie lettuce wrap appetizer!

That was able to calm the hunger beast until the main course arrived…

Veggie + Coconut + Lurv.  It was an obvious choice for the Coconut Curry Vegetables, with steamed brown rice…and a side of garlic spinach.  Get really to be realllly jealous.

Holllllllllla!

Abra, Kadabra….1, 2, 3!

My stomach is a food magician!!!  Who knew.

Love the Chang.

Also love my new GaGa shades I picked up!

And ALSO loved (noticing a pattern here???) some dark chocolate and dried kiwi goodness once we got back to the room!

Someone completely awesome gave this bar to me.  Can’t for the life of me remember who it was.  ;-)

Well, a fabulous day down in “Joe-Jah” is complete.  Time for bed!  I am full of some sort of mixture of Kombucha (ehh.), Chinese Lovin’ (yum.), and Choco/Kiwi goodness (yum squared)

On that note….Saturday is OVAH!  Night bloggies.

What is YOUR experience with Kombucha? What is a healthy food/drink that you have had high expectations for, but turned out to be EPIC fail(s)?!?!

Mongolian Grill-ness.

It has been entirely too long since this blogger boy has indulged in some Chinese dinner goodness.

This is yet another example of how you can eat OUT, and still eat healthy in an all-to-easily unhealthy atmosphere.  Don’t get me wrong, this place was chocked full of the classic sodium-ridden buffets full of fried things that I didn’t even realize could be fried.  (corn….mussels…..SALMON?!?!)  If you ever get a chance to go to a Chinese/Japanese place with a Hibachi grill…go for it!  Totally delicious and healthy!

It was raw veggie heaven!

My bowl ready for action:

  • Broccoli
  • Cabbage
  • Squash/Zucchini
  • Mushrooms
  • Red Peppers
  • Pineapples

Topped with 3 spoonfuls of pineapple sauce, and it was grilled up!

From the “bar of doom” I grabbed a couple of pieces of sweet potato, and two small portions of Rice and Noodles.  Deeeeee-licious.

Resisted the urge to get dessert at the restaurant because I knew that Emily and I were grabbing TCBY before Starbizzle later.  Come on though, how could I resist this.

Thank you, cookie-sahn.

Once dinner was ovah, headed to Johnson City to meet Emily and Russel for some yogurt!

I wanted my fav-o-rite flava….but resisted:

9.5 times out of 10 I would hands down get this flavor, but I snuck in my own toppings:

Have I mentioned that I am currently obsessed with my dried Kiwi/Mango?!?!?!  It went perfectly with White Chocolate Mousse

C’mon people.

I then scurried over to Starbucks where we both currently sit!

Now, if you will excuse me…I have some Chess to attend to.  Hopefully tonight will be complete domination!!!!

Remember!!!  Tomorrow is the last day to enter for the FREE YOGURT PRIZE PACK!!!!
