More Layers?!?!

by Lori and Michelle on January 6, 2010

Good Morning friends,

How is everyone doing? Staying warm we hope! I know we are trying too!

After staying up for almost 24 hours yesterday we left ourselves sleep in this morning. Didn’t wake up till 10am! Nice! Due to our late start in the morning we didn’t get as much work accomplished as we were hoping for.

Though we did manage to get some extra warm clothes for the Disney marathon. Got another pair of clothes, a hoodie, and another jacket. Hopefully that will keep us warm.

We started our morning with a blue-ish green smoothie this morning

Did some work than decided to head to buy a few more outer clothing gear for the race. Ok we are babies sometimes when it comes down to cold weather!

Before heading out we got our coconut yogurt (that we made prior to leaving in NC) for lunch. We mixed in some yacon syrup and maca.

Packed all of us some water though we forget to bring some snacks. Our errands took us longer than expected so by the stop we got to our last stop, which was Whole Foods, we all got some fresh vegetable juice!

Jen and I each got beet and  carrot juice… we like to call it Red Beauty. We feel like the Cullens when we drink this, haha

Lori got a cucumber grapefruit juice

Hit the spot for us all. We all talked about juices in the car about in how we all miss them and did do drink them more.

By the time we got back it was dark and getting cold again. But Lori and I wanted to move the legs some and TEST out our new hats and gloves. And to test out how cold we still got! So we got dressed and hit the road.

Can you tell who is who????

Don’t we look gorgeous silly!!!

Before we headed out the door we grabbed two of our chocolate coconut bites for some extra energy.

We did a 30 minute run. Not sure of distance we just went and ran to we both felt good. Came back and made a simple pumpkin milk banana spirulina smoothie with some more maca and coconut oil in it.

Anyways our dinner for the evening was a wilted romaine salad with avocado and sauerkraut, fermented veggies, topped with dulse flakes, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, red onion and some tahini!  Thats a mouth full.

I have to say that your dinner looks AMAZING. I am, too, obsessed with sauerkraut and fermented veggies. I could eat those and nothing else… well except for miso. ;)

And you two don’t look silly, you look warm!!!

“Ok we are babies sometimes when it comes down to cold weather!”–i am totally a lightweight after a decade of living in warm weather states after growing up in the cold, i just cant handle it anymore either!

Totally understand Averie. :) You would think living in NC, VA, and CO we would be used to cold weather, but we are not. HAHA
