Come One, Come Blog

Who needs a nap when you can energize with

this !
VEGETABLES!!

IMG_0271 (640x480) (3)

A handful of us healthy living bloggers took a break to go on a power walk and drink some veggie juice

IMG_0267 (640x480) (2) IMG_0268 (640x480) (2)

I could not wait to get a juice. I was totally craving all things green.

I ordered Spinach, Celery, Carrot but I think I was served Kale, Apple, Carrot – I saw him putting apple into the juicer? It was OK though because it tasted amazing!!

The top layer was foamy and the denser juice was on the bottom. It was like a veggie cappuccino and I was in love!

IMG_0269 (480x640) (2)

Goooo nutrients!

IMG_0272 (640x480) (3)

Our power walk continued into Central Park

IMG_0274 (480x640) (3)

It was such a gorgeous day!

IMG_0275 (640x480) (3)

IMG_9534 (427x640)

We departed for a quick glam session and then headed back out to dinner

IMG_9536 (427x640)

Larbs, Me, Sabrina, Bekah, Camille, Emily, Tina with Jess and Ashley in the front

IMG_9537 (640x427) (2)

Girlz!

IMG_9538 (640x427) (2)

Our dining spot was Eatery

IMG_9540 (640x427) (2)

And we were all impressed

IMG_9541 (640x427)

Round ‘O drinks included a Manhattan for me!! Gotta have one every time I’m here. This guy was extra sweet – almost too much so – but I loved it.

IMG_9543 (640x427) (2)

Mom and Larbs got apricot beers

IMG_9544 (640x427) (2)

On the table we munched on Sesame Rice crisps – they were good!

IMG_9545 (640x427)

For dinner I got a Tofu Stir Fry – with kobocha squash, shitake mushrooms, spinach, snow peas and forbidden rice in a curry sauce. EX. CELL. ENT. I managed to eat most of it – tasted so fresh and flavorful.

IMG_9553 (640x427)

Sabrina got a gorgeous chicken caesar salad – pretty enough for a photo

IMG_9551 (640x427) (2)

And I plate full of sweet potato fries to share 🙂 I had a handful

IMG_9549 (640x427) (2)

And Mom and Larbs got a shrimp roll up of sorts that was heavenly

IMG_9548 (640x427) (2)

Look who made an appearance!! Tina‘s Mal 🙂 Posing as my mom in badge form!

IMG_9555 (427x640)

We all headed back to the hotel to check out some of the parties going on. One big one was all sparkles and neon lights

IMG_9559 (640x427)

Complete with a unicorn cake!

IMG_9564 (640x427) (2)

From Charm City

IMG_9566 (640x427) (2)

I grabbed a slice but was kind of disappointed 🙁 Crisco icing is so not my cup of tea. Fun cake in general though!

IMG_9567 (640x427) (2)

Our group was excited to run into some of the big foodies – Simply Recipes, Steamy Kitchen, Savor The Thyme and The Pioneer Woman herself!

IMG_9568 (640x427) (2)

The best part of blogging is most definitely meeting people in real life 🙂

    Loved the unicorn cake and the Ace of Cakes Show. Was actually considering using them for my wedding (if I happened to inherit a lump sum of money), but Crisco icing would turn me off too. Yikes. Thanks for sharing the pics though – I feel like I’m there 🙂

    What is the biggest difference you’ve noticed between people in real life vs their blog lives?

    Reply
    • Kath says

      August 8, 2010 at 1:43 pm

      Oh gosh, I don’t know! i think everyone looks a little different in real life because they are shorter/taller than you imagined, their face looks different in 3D, etc. So maybe there are some physical notices (like accents). But personality wise, everyone is ALWAYS nicer in person!! Not that they’re mean on their blogs, but the whole blog world is just really nice.

    Hey Kath! Long time reader, first time commenter. 🙂 Thank you for creating such a wonderful blog, it’s always a pleasure to try your yummy food recommendations and read about your daily endeavors.

    I was wondering what the name of the juice shop is. I’m moving to NYC in a few months and am a fresh juice fanatic.

    PS – I love the orange nails!

    You’re so right about the best part of blogging! Just this week I had dinner with one of Sydney’s top food bloggers – she’s been going for 6 years and is somewhat royalty. I love the community around blogging 🙂 (And I like being able to see yummy food like this when I’m a bit hungover and can’t stomach it myself 😉 )

    Just reviewing your posts from Friday and Saturday and this looks like a blast. I especially enjoyed your creative oatmeal-on-a-plate concoction at breakfast. Hotel/event breakfast buffets are the best (unless they’re majorly skimpy): finding the healthiest stuff is always a fun challenge, and you can’t beat the “rebellious” feeling of slipping a few portable goodies for later. 😉

    Ah, I ate at Eatery when I was in NY a few months ago and had the same thing! It was SO GOOD! I wasn’t expecting it to be so spicy (or maybe I’m just really sensitive to “spice”) but I just loved all the flavor. I also really loved those sesame crisps.

    Sounds like all y’all are having a wonderful time! I might need to go next year, despite my lack o’ blog.

    I’m curious how your sister is enjoying it, since she’s not really a blogger, right? How does someone who’s outside the community find fitting in?

      She fits right in! Everyone who reads KERF knows her and my friends are pretty much her friends. Mom and Sis had a great time with the swag and food. They were probably a bit more bored in sessions, but that’s why they went shopping on Sat afternoon 🙂

    That’s so awesome that the cake was done by Charm City Cakes. I love that show and Duff. It looks like such a fun place to work, and their cakes are hands-down the best (best-looking that is – I’ve never tasted one).

    And I’ve been to Eatery and enjoyed it as well. Glad you had a great time! 🙂

    Did you & the fam like the apricot beer? Actually, yesterday my friends and I were drinking my favorite apricot beer by Pyramid Brewery. It’s a local CA brewery, but maybe you’ve seen it? If so, you & Matt should try their Audacious Apricot!
