You’re Hot Then You’re Cold
Happy Weekend!
I hope you all had a wonderful week and that it’s not too cold wherever you are. The weather here has been very feisty to say the least- in the early morning and evening it’s in the 60s, but in the afternoon, it’s in the 80′s! Maybe Katy Perry was singing about Florida in her song when she says, “You’re hot then you’re cold…“
Here are a few meals I threw together this past week:
Simple breakfast of fried eggs, tomato slices, and a banana.
Lunch: Arnold Select Sandwich Thin with a Boca Burger, lettuce, tomato, pickle, mustard & crunchy purple grapes.
Pomegranate. YUM!
Studying while snacking on a Cherry Pie LARABAR. This one was good, but I do like the Apple or Key Lime Pie versions better.
I recieved my Zevia samples in the mail that I won from Kristi’s Giveaway! I have to say, these all-natural sodas taste exactly like the real deal! My roommate and I, who are soda lovers, have been sharing them because they taste so good.
On Zevia‘s website, they state that:
“Stevia is a natural herb native to South and Central America. For centuries, native Americans of Paraguay and Brazil called it the “sweet leaf” and used it to sweeten native foods. ZEVIA contains none of the chemically processed artificial sugar substitutes, artificial flavors or artificial colors found in other diet sodas.”
Root Beer is my favorite kind of soda pop, so of course, it was the first one I had to dive into. I was so surprised that it tasted and looked like actual Root Beer. Zevia Root Beer was so refreshing with my grilled chicken and veggie dinner. I have to give the wonderful folks at Zevia big props for their products. It’ll be interesting to see how these new “pure” sodas take over the markets and grocery stores.

Time to get cracking on a lot of studying! Sadly, I won’t be able to go the Gator game tonight because a huge test in Managerial Economics is quickly approaching. I hope everyone in San Francisco for the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival is having a wonderful time!
Haha love that song
Hang in there with the studying!
I’m so jealous of the 80*F afternoons!!! I need to move to Florida.
I just tried Zevia for the first time yesterday (in Gingerale) and LOVED it! Definitely doesn’t taste like your average “diet” soda. I’m going to have to give Root Beer a try!
xxoo

congrats on the soda! i actually saw these at our local co-op, but since im not such a big soda drinker i didnt buy one.
dont you just hate when homework gets in the way of life…*sigh*
The weather is f-f-f-freezing here in the UK and raining
Your eggs look wonderful, I haven’t had any in awhile for breakie I’m starting to miss em.
Glad you are enjoying the soda. Good luck on the upcoming exam.
Ah yes, the 80 degree weather. It was low nineties here this past week, but it’s slowly going down…
Thanks for the congrats! love the looks of your fried eggs and pomegranate. Yummm.
Yum! I actually have Zevia samples too, and I’m currently obsessed with making Zevia recipes! I just turned one into tea earlier today…getting the brain working! They are so good, huh?
80 degree afternoons sound pretty nice to me!! Look at all that Zevia! Awesome:) Glad you like the taste!
I am slightly obsessed with Zevia
the black cherry is my favorite!!!!
Enjoy the weather honey, it’s 40 here today so I am veryyyyy jealous!

LOVE Zevia- Yum
I’ve never eaten pomengranate plain like that – is it sweet?
Melinda,
It is really sweet! In fact it tastes just like candy… maybe even better.
I highly recommend you try it! Just cut it down the center, grab a spoon, then scoop out all of the yummy little seeds (or pomegranate jewels as I call them lol).
So glad you liked the Zevia!!! I am in love as well.
i love the zevia sodas
Yup, the festival was freaking awesome. I wish you were there so I could meet you!
And <3<3<3 Zevia!
Ooo. yummy eggs. My stomach just growled.
ah!! I recently bought a pomegranate and wasn’t quite sure if I could just use the shell as abowl, but ta da! my question has been answered.
I really like the Zevia drinks too, but I think i would have to say the root beer has a bit too much of a licorice taste to it for my “loving”. hehehe
How do you eat pomegranate? I never have understood it.. what is your method?
