Glow With The Flow

Happy Sunday friends! We started the day with this breakfast of eggs, toast and banana. Cream cheese on Irish Soda Bread tasted just like a cinnamon raisin bagel!

Foodblog-6089

Yesterday we took a day trip up to Harrisonburg for our friend Emmy’s birthday party! We got there a little early so we could explore a bit and have lunch. Since our party was at the Discovery Museum, we ate across the street at Clementine’s.

Foodblog-6043 Foodblog-6044

They had a great selection of healthy options, and I went with a kale salad and cup of chicken chipotle soup. Plus a few of Mazen’s chips!

Foodblog-6052 Foodblog-6053

Matt ordered pork tacos that he loved.

After lunch we walked around downtown (which wasn’t that easy with all the snow/ice/frozen slush) and ended up over at Three Notch’d, a taproom by our brewery here in Cville.

Foodblog-6058 Foodblog-6063 Foodblog-6062

They had 2 beers that were brewed there in H-burg, and I loved both. I don’t remember their names – but one was a smoked wheat (I think) and the other was a heather beer that tasted like a pumpkin beer! The Hydraulion Red is my favorite all-around beer in Cville these days.

Foodblog-6060 Foodblog-6064 Foodblog-6065 Foodblog-6068

We played at the Discovery Museum for a while before the party started. They have a real ambulance inside customized for kid play. M loved that and the John Deere!

Foodblog-6070 Foodblog-6072

Once the party started all the kids did an art project with paints that hardened when cooked. The recipe was equal parts self-rising flour, salt, water and food coloring.

Foodblog-6080

They painted with Q-tips and then each paper got microwaved for about 18 seconds and they came out hard and dry! So neat, and a great rainy day project.

Foodblog-6082

Cake time!!!

Foodblog-6078 Foodblog-6085

Mazen fell right to sleep on our hour drive home. He had a blast!

For dinner we put grits in the rice cooker so they were ready when we got home, and had those with fried egg and sauteed kale. A little hot sauce for kick!

Foodblog-6086

It was a lighter dinner because I went to Glow with the Flow at Fly Dog Yoga!! Power vinyasa is here, y’all. In a heated room. To rockin’ music. With peppermint mist at the end. It ticked nearly all of my boxes for the yoga studio I’d love to make a part of my weekly routine. It’s still in pop-up stages now at the Shops at Stonefield, but I can’t wait to see what the studio is like when it officially opens somewhere in Cville. I still miss Y2 Yoga in Charlotte everyday.

Foodblog-43 this !

Afterwards we had happy hour prices at Burton’s, and I shared a zucchini app with Naomi along with a glass of red. Good times!

    My weekend was a good one! It kicked off with a mani pedi followed by double date night out with friends for fish & chips on Friday, a day at a housewares show on Saturday where I got to see Ree Drummond speak and today started with yoga & brunch with a girlfriend! Now I’m working on some blog posts and binge watching House of Cards. A nice relaxing end to the weekend. 🙂

    I had taco salad for the first time in a long time. I loved it so much, I recreated my own again today at home! Only I didn’t have ground beef, which would’ve made it taste a lot better.

    Love your white parka with the furry hood! Where from? I’ve been looking for a slightly longer one like that, but not super long or too puffy. 😉

      It’s Stitch Fix (brand = Rey) and its my favorite winter coat! The pockets are fleece lined.

    Wow, looks like you had a great weekend! I so love the shot of you at the yoga studio. 🙂 Random question, but about how many servings/slices do you typically get out of one round Irish soda bread loaf? I cut ours into 8 wedges, and I see you slice yours, so I was just curious.

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      March 8, 2015 at 11:01 pm

      I like my slices very thin so…a lot! I couldn’t count. ..Maybe 20?

        Haha ok sounds good. I guess I gave us some very generous wedges. 😉

          Did you cut them like scones? No shame in a large wedge!

            Yes, that’s how I should’ve described it! 8 large wedges. I just pair one with a balance of protein & fats. No shame, love it! ??

              I’ll try it that way and you try thinly cut slices super toasted!

                Will do! The wedges are definitely 3ish whole grain serving equivalents but oh so tasty. I’ll try the slices toasted & topped with cream cheese!

    I’ve been contemplating a rice cooker for awhile, and now you’ve won me over knowing it can be used for easy grits. How did you do them in there so they weren’t too watery, or too dry? Thanks!

    Sounds like a fun and filled weekend! I love the ideas of grits in the rice cooker- how long do they take to cook? Sounds like you left them in all day! Also, have you ever tried polenta in the rice cooker? Would love to know the best way to cook it!

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      March 8, 2015 at 10:58 pm

      The grits take over an hour but I always set them and set the timer so it’s not a worry. Polenta would be very similar!

    Love this post! First off, Harrisonburg! I went to JMU for undergrad and I love getting a peek at the area even though I know live on the other side of the country! Neither of those places were there when I was in school but I love that downtown has become such a great go-to place! What a fun weekend. And- Glow Your Flow yoga- yes! I actually teach a class here called “Glow Your Flow” and it’s hands down my favorite class to teach- love seeing it in other places 🙂
