Bona Dea Bread
I like bread a lot. I like whole wheat bread mainly, because I like the richer flavor. I like hearty, dense breads. I like sourdough. I like Ezekiel sprouted grain bread. Much to the chagrin of my notions of eating a low-carb diet because it’s healthy, I find it nearly impossible to give up bread.…
Whole Foods is where it’s at on Wednesday

Weird Wednesdays are back at lululemon, starting this afternoon with Brooke’s Bootcamp on top of Whole Foods from 6:30-7:30pm.

A sprouted grain crust pizza!
Whaaaa? In a quick stop at Whole Foods last night I stumbled upon A.C. LaRocco’s Ultra Thin Crust Pizza Sprouted Grain with Old World Veggies. I told my G about it, and he insisted I post pics so he could know what I was talking about. Behold: Sprouted grains are much better for you, higher…

More Valentine’s Day Fun
Remember how I suggested in my last Heart Day post that somewhere to go sans reservations would be Daily Juice or Whole Foods? Turns out Daily Juice is hosting a chocolate party and Whole Foods is hosting a Singles event–but that’s TONIGHT, Wednesday, so you’re probably still safe to head there Saturday night. Whole Foods…
El Greco < Raw Food Bar at Whole Foods
I’d been wanting to try El Greco for awhile, ever since my mom met the head chef and told me how nice he was and that I needed to go try his restaurant. It’s on 31st & Guadalupe, behind the Mangia–which is a disadvantage for me, because I’d rather eat the delicious Mangia pizza I…
