Green Flash

I didn’t sleep a WINK last night.

IMG_0633Blog

Blame it on nerves. The 2 cups of coffee I had yesterday (d’oh!) The fact that I woke up starving and had to tip-toe down for a bowl of cereal at 2am, hoping that hunger was keeping me away. No bones.

I’m feeling really, really tired, but I woke up and did what any normal sleep-deprived, bakery-owning, blogging, RD foodie would do:

Harvested greens from my garden and made a salad and a green smoothie!!

IMG_0630Blog

Salad because I was lacking in greens yesterday and could really feel a difference in my body.

IMG_0631Blog

And smoothie because it’s portable, healthy and great for sipping as we get going. Took all of 60 seconds to make!

IMG_0634Blog

I’m going to have our new Great Harvest Blend by Shenandoah Joe when I get there, and I’m sure I’ll have a mid-morning snack to tide me to lunch.

We open at 7 with muffins + coffee and fresh hot bread is outta the oven around 10! Come visit!!

PS. Thanks so much for all of your anniversary + opening well wishes!!! Wheeee!

    Thinking of you this morning when I didn’t sleep well and finally got up at 5. I was thinking I bet Kath didn’t sleep last night either from all of the anticipation and excitement. Congratulations and good luck on your opening day. Looks like it is T-20 min. and counting until you unlock the doors. Woo Hoo for Great Harvest in Charlottesville.

    I am so proud of you and Matt on this huge accomplishment…I admire you guys greatly. I wish I had embraced my true passions when I was in my twenties…you are such an inspiration.

    Take good care of yourself, sweet Kath…wishing you some quality zzz’s tonight.

    Whenever I haven’t slept well, I also go for the greens but I’ll do lots of lightly steamed kale with an egg-over-easy on top. The protein and greens are gentle on my blood sugar so I don’t have that sudden drop that exaggerates the fatigue later. I’m rooting for you today. I know it will be great!

    Hi love the name of your site- yes coffee does that to me too! Ever tried raw cacao?! I LOVE green smoothies and am a complete convert. Have you ever made them without the milk and with coconut water and frozen banana instead? Delicious. SO inspired by them-easy fast tasty doable healthy yes and portable.
    I really want to inspire others too. Here’s my greenie website http://www.dailygreenbar.com/
    I bought a Blendtec Xpress (they were cheaper here than my preferred Vitamix) after blowing up 2 normal ones in a year! I notice you’re a dietician- I applied to study nutrition this year because want to start teaching classes but wasn’t accepted because don’t have a science background. I have a B.Ed (high school art/photog) so am looking for alternative nutrition courses somewhere- I’m in Australia.

      You blew up two VitaMix machines in one year? Were they covered by warantee?

        Hi no they were regular blenders (Sunbeam!) Lucky yes covered so it was replaced and I
        started chopping everything up really small. Then the replacement started spitting black oil and smelling like it was going to explode so bought the BlendTec $800! But cheaper than VitaMix- saving up for one so can pass BlendTec on. Everyone thought I was crazy but great investment I think.
