i think that mega avocado salad deserves two YAYS!
Oh I LOOOOOOVED Rachel Getting Married!
love all your yay and nay’s!
mm how about them fan favs! haha your treats look way better anyway!
dude that snickers kashi bar tooottaallly looks like a big fat yay! I trust your judgment though, must be nastay!
Creative blogging = yay!
I wondered how many calories were in my favorite beef sliders…mmm, there goes all of today’s calorie allowance
You know what may be a bit creepy? How much Brooke and I talk about you/your eats when we’re doing what we do best–eating. Anything kombucha or hummus-related and your name comes up. Then we talk about your dimey fiance and how we want to come to the wedding, but whatevs.
This post was a huge yay. And did you make banana soft serve with that last pic? I’m assuming yes, but you may have done something else magical with it.
Have a fab night/start to the week!
holla! even more craze, that kyle knows who you both are. haha. he refers to brooke as the girl who made the awesome PB+J video for school. and you are the blonde with my dream job. haha. you kids need to bring tha mafia out here for sme east coastin, ya huuurd? banana soft serve, fo SHO!
Quinoa, baked tofu and roasted red pepper hummus?!!??!! YAY.
Green kombucha?!?! Hmmm, may need some courage for that one.
But that gorgy salad and the pom chobani….yay!
its one of the best ones – i swear!!
Don’t you love how calories are posted everywhere in NYC now?
I drove through Coney Island on Saturday and my husband wanted to stop at The Original Nathan’s (it’s very famous) so I indulged him, he got a hot dog (~300 cals) and a large fries (1,000 cals!). It’s crazy and makes you think twice. I had a few fries but was careful!
its good and yet a bit scary. sometimes ignorance is bliss – although not in this case. over 1000 calories!?! what the *eff* is in there?
At least it looks like there are more YAYs than NAYs
Had no idea there was a Pomegranate Chobs…ah!
Also, did the YAY for Rachel Getting Married come before or after you had seen it? Do you recommend?
i liked it. i recommend
Around the “orange themed salad,” the words “yay” and “nay” began to look kind of weird!
I take it you like the new stadium… I was going to boycott it, but I know I can’t do it. :p
<3 <3
the new stadium is pretty – but come ON…if you are going to update it, get hip with the times and get some healthy food options. no greens to be found…well maybe being smoked outside the stadium…
This post- YAY
Monday mornings- NAY
Monday mornings that involve coffee and lara bars – YAY
Your quinoa/tofu/hummus dish sounds and looks like it deserves WAY more than a ‘yay’. I give it a “heck yeah throw your hand in the air and say ‘woah’…”
thats what i was saying on the inside…but it didnt fit on one line. so “yay” took its place
Posts from HHH–Yay!
Wow..that dried yacon sounds awesome! I have never seen it before–is “Yacon Power” the brand name on the package? I am intrigued…a dried veggie/fruit I have not had before?! I need to remedy that ASAP!
Courtney
it was weird. navitas naturals is the brand, and yacon power is the name of the product. they were…weird? i cant think of a way to describe them. texture weird. flavor weird. all in all – just weird.
kyle leaving for brazil MAJOR NAY!
prepacked snacks into the brand new spankee stadium = MAJOR YAY.
serious ups and downs in this post. rollercoaster of emotions for me for you haha.
in honor of your man going away you should treat yourself to a kombucha for every day that he’s gone..
im 2 for 2 with the kombuchas
I love your YAYs and boo on the NAYs!! Thank goodness for those calorie lists – my goodness!
Here’s my list, to your list…
YAYs = Frozen dessert done right, COFFEE (black gold, move over oil), & ‘fu and hummus
NAYs = Yankees beating the Tigers, being injured and unable to run (or walk without looking like a pirate), and ball park eats – I could tell you horror stories that would make you happy you didn’t eat there! Ferreals.
Am I feeling a Brazil ‘bucks mug coming back!? I sure hope so
while normally id say hells yeah to another massive mug, we have no more room in our kitch!!!
Beautiful flowers!
HHH = Yay!
Lovin’ all the YAYS!! And hey, this coming Friday night will be a “yay” too
friday night is gonna be awesome…i can hardly wait!
Reading a post from Elise on a Monday morning – yay!
I’ll take some of that Avocado salad please
haha i loved julie’s yay/nay theme and loved yours too! i might have to try it out sometime. i am glad too see the yays did outweigh the nays for you! and 1125 cals for some chicken and fries, are you kidding me, that is something else! gross.
I second the “yah” for Rachel Getting Married and the “nay” on ball park eats (actually, I agree with most of this post!) I posted a couple weeks ago about my trip to the ballpark and the 4,000 calorie burger they serve (but you get a free t-shirt!) RI-DONC-U-LOUS.
That guac salad? Can I get a “whoo-whoo”? I think I’m addicted and hope there is never a recall of avocado, as I will be a gonner…
Pomegranate Chobani? I’ve got to find that stuff!
it was gooooooood. real seeds in it and everything!
Wait a minute. POMEGRANATE Chobani?? Wha?? I need to go shopping!
Love the Yay and Nay…say for the nay on the Kashi bar though, I thought that flavor sounded awesome.
*sad* not say…whoops
it was only a nay bc of the ingreds. it was BEYOND delish. trust.
Quite a mix of YAY and NAY. My faves:
-kombucha (duh)
-Pom Chobani
-mouthwatering baked tofu!
I LOVED THIS POST – YAY YAY YAY!
Swamp water is SO DAMN ADDICTING! I can see why it is a staple in your fridge. Damn Whole Paycheck, I mean Whole Foods and your amazing organicness that makes my body feel normal after a night on the beer.
What does Kyle do that takes him all ova da country? Homeboys a world traveler!
Heart chu!
I love Rachel Getting Married! And hummus + quinoa sounds pretty sexy.
I wish you were going with Kyle to Brazil! Not that you just came back from vacation or anything, but… Brazil!
I just want to extend my gratitude a lot for this indepth blog. I’ve just bookmarked your blog, when I have more free time I am going to have to do some thorough reading of your website. Well back to searching for goji berry supplements
Thanks Kathy!!
