Walkability

One of my top priorities for finding a new place to live (both city, neighborhood and house) was walkability to shops, restaurants, and particularly coffee shops. As we were house hunting for our rental here in Cville, I refused to look at houses more than a mile from downtown, which I deemed the turning point from walking to biking.

IMG_2249 (640x427) (2) this !

But then we found our house. And it just so happened that it’s a bit further from downtown than I wanted. Still walkable if you have an hour, but much more bike friendly.

IMG_2231 (640x427) (2)

However, I realized after we moved in how close we are to UVA and that the strip of collegey places is only about a 30 minute walk away. Definitely doable!

IMG_7429 (640x427)

So today I walked to a coffee shop to work!!!! <— Totally one of those things that sounds really fun but I never do!

IMG_2456 (640x427) (2)

The walk was just lovely. A bit cold, but lovely.

And it ended with a Grande Vanilla Roobios Soy Misto.

[I think I am finally figuring out what I like at Starbux!]

I found a little study room upstairs and got my type on.

And would you believe someone walked in and sat down next to me with an ice cream of gooey brownie. I joked that she wasn’t allowed to sit next to me while eating it, and she responded with "I read your blog!" HILARIOUS!

The walk home was COLD. Very cold. So cold that I decided to turn on Pandora "Peaceful Holidays" when I got home.

And then I got yelled at by Matt

I forgave him though because he was already working on dinner!

IMG_9285

I heart bok choy!! So crunchy and leafy all in one!

IMG_9288

We turned broccoli, green pep, garden peas and bok choy into a stir fry

IMG_9289

Seasoned with theses in unrememberable proportions (just dash them in to taste, heavy on the soy!)

With a side of golden Twin Oaks tofu

And a small pot of brown rice in the back.

IMG_9311

With a splash of tea Karen brought over

IMG_9295

We ate our dinner while watching the movie SILK, which I liked a lot. Very beautifully made!

IMG_9305

And because pumpkin is just as good for dessert as it is for breakfast…

IMG_9320

A bedtime snack for post-movie hunger of pumpkin, alliebar and PB coconut. Yum!

Nite!

    Your post makes me miss the times I’ve lived in walkable cities, when I was close enough to walk, bike, or hop on the bus to get to the food co-op, coffee shops, restaurants, and other fun stuff. Now we live in the woods and need to have a car, but we’re a one car family, which I feel good about.

    How are the local coffee shops in Charlottesville? I’ve been on a support-the-local-coffee-shops mission.

    Walkability is my #1 concern for residence as well. Our last three apartments have all been literally less than 2 minutes from stores/restaurants! The ability walk safely for long distances around the city is very important to me as well; moving from Brooklyn to Buffalo we definitely took a hit there.

      Misto means “mixed” in Italian. A coffee misto is half hot coffee, half steamed milk, with or without foam. A tea misto is half hot water with a tea bag steeped in, and half steamed milk, with or without foam.

          “A drink consisting of half coffee, half steamed milk and a bit of foam. It can be made decaf, nonfat, etc. “Misto” is the Starbucks name, cafe au lait is a more generic term.”

    I love bok choy too but have never cooked it! I always worry about not having enough room in the fridge for a huge bunch of it and I don’t want to waste it. It’s quite pricey in the grocery store. Our local Korean market sells baby bok choy which is so cute, but $$$$$

    When we buy our house, it’s all about location, location, location!! I refuse to be SO far away from things anymore. Our closest store is 6 miles, our closest mall is 20!! 😮

    Hi Kath! I absolutely love reading your blog! I’m a college student living in a dorm and it makes me want a kitchen so bad! If you don’t mind, I have a completely random question. What is your opinion on snacking? I read the book French Women Don’t Get Fat and the author says that snacking should be avoided and 3 meals a day is all you need. I’m trying to follow this and can can get away with not snacking between breakfast and lunch no problem, but sometimes I go over 7 hours without snacking between lunch and dinner…and I don’t even get hungry! Is this bad for my metabolism? Your input would be much appreciated! 🙂

      November 2, 2010 at 9:50 am

      I think it’s unrealistic to expect people to go long stretches without snacks. If your meals are spaced 4-5 hours apart, it might be possible, but for active people especially, snacks are probably necessary. And going from noon to 7PM is too long to go without eating! I think the book also probably expects larger B,L,D if there are no snacks in order to meet energy needs. So maybe meals of 600+ calories each, which would make no snacks easier to do.

    Like you I always love the idea of going to coffee shops to get work done, but hardly ever actually do it!

    I also love walking and usually try to do as much as time permits. Unfortunately the summer here in Tokyo was absolutely unbearable and walking my usual routes would have been an invitation for heatstroke, so I had to take a few months off. It’s cooled down now but I’m having problems getting back into my old walking routine!

    Hi Kath,

    I had a whole post written up for you last night but my computer shut itself down before I could post it. 🙁 Anyway, here are some more coffee shops for you to try:

    1. Shenandoah Joe’s. Have you been here yet? It’s the best coffee in town. There’s two locations, on Ivy and on Preston. I really love this place – great atmosphere, lots of comfy chairs (at least on Preston) and lots and LOTS of different coffees to choose from.
    2. Mudhouse downtown (near the Omni). This place wins the best in Cville award every year, it seems, but in my opinion it’s very overrated. The coffee is bitter and expensive, they have tiny cups, and the atmosphere is pretentious. They only take cash.
    3. Java Java, also downtown (near the Market Street garage) – I love this place. It’s quiet and unassuming, and it has delicious organic coffee. I go there quite a bit since I work right down the street. The pumpkin chai latte is really, really good.
    4. Greenberry’s. Greenberry’s!!!!! It’s in Barracks. It’s an institution. It’s also got great coffee and a lot of personality. If you haven’t been there yet, go soon! My friend once served Dave Matthews there.
    5. Cville Coffee on McIntire by Allied St. This place has sandwiches and noodle bowls as well. The food is pretty good, and the coffee is decent. What makes this place stand out is the spacious and light-filled seating area. Lots of students and work-from-home types come here and spread out their materials on the tables. It’s a really neat place. (They also only take cash.)

    I hope this helps! One other note – don’t try the coffee at Bodo’s; it’s gross.

    That’s so fun that someone recognized you at Starbucks. It must be crazy to be so widely recognized. 🙂

    I live in a family-friendly neighborhood. My walk-ability usually only consists of visiting the community park, lake and neighbors. The weather in Orlando is cool now, so biking is in tow 😀

    Kath – Love your blog. Your food always looks SERIOUSLY delicious – esp. this asian inspired meal! I was wondering, did you just stir fry the tofu in a bit of oil? Or did you add anything else?

    Thanks!

      Thanks!

      Just a little olive oil in the pan to brown it up. It already had herbs in it (the tofu did)

    I can not wait to move to an area that has better trails and walkability.

    Vanilla Rooibos is my go-to decaf beverage of choice at Starbucks as well. So yummy and sweet!

    Okay – how many sets of dinnerware do you have??? I love it all and it seems to really set the stage for your meals – especially all the cool bowls or your oats – LOVE them!

    This is why I want to move to Boulder, CO. We live an hour south of it now, but I love that city. I’ve never seen so many outdoorsy and health concious people in my life! And so many cyclists! The downtown strip is great too.

    Agreed. Most of my apartments in Portland were within walking distance of cool things…coffee shops, bars, restaurants. Last year I moved out to the suburbs so not too close to anything. But we can bike!

    Hi Kath!

    I just stumbled upon your blog this afternoon and I have to say, I am feeling kind of like I am in the twilight zone that you live in C’ville! My hubs and I currently live in Alexandria, but have been down to your neck of the woods the past two weekends because there is a slight chance that his job may relocate there.

    I really enjoy your blog and you can count me as a new fan! Maybe I’ll see you around soon! =)
