Eatin’ Healthy
Hi, guys! I’ve had quite a busy night so far, but it’s been productive! 
As soon as I walked in the door from work, Mal and I headed out to meet our realtor to look at a couple more houses. I was starving, so I grabbed a juicy peach to hold me over until dinner.
We had no luck with the houses that we saw this evening, but our line-up for tomorrow night seems much more promising! 
Dinner
On the way home from house hunting, we popped into Eatin’ Healthy, a restaurant/cafe that serves “delicious, nutritious food and drinks, made from all-natural ingredients and served fast and fresh.” I’ve driven by this place many times, so I was excited to finally give it a try.
The decor inside Eatin’ Healthy is bright, colorful, and inviting. I can see myself blogging there sometime in the future– most likely with a cup of coffee. 
The evening turned cold, so I ordered a cup of Mango Passionfruit tea to warm-up.

For dinner, I ordered the Eatin’ Healthy salad, which was mixed greens, pepper, carrots, tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, sprouts and balsamic vinegar on the side.
This salad impressed me. The ingredients were pretty standard, but they were crisp, fresh, and plentiful. I ate the entire portion minus a few pieces of lettuce.
In addition to looking at houses and grabbing dinner with my hubs, I’ve also cleaned the kitchen, put in 3 loads of laundry, and baked a ridiculously, peanut buttery treat, which I will post soon. 
Time to switch the laundry! Enjoy the night, guys!

I totally understand the house shopping thing. I looked for a while but there wasn’t anything in my price range that is safe in the town I work and nothing in my price range with good foundations in the city I go to church. So, I’ve just decided to stay in an apartment…that’ll be easier with my first year as a resident anyway! I would have loved to take advantage of the $8000, too! Hope your houses tomorrow are better and there is one that is just what you want!

The salad looks perfectly fresh, yum!
Hope your house hunting goes better for you. It was a long process for us to find our perfect condo.

hope tomorrow’s houses are better!
do you find light salads like that to be satisfying enough? i feel like i’d be hungry again in no time! but then again, maybe that secret peanut butter treat will come in handy later

@Katherine: Yes, I do!

My friend loves Eatin’ Healthy. I will have to give it a try. Don’t despair on the houses, there are SO many for sale now!

Looks like a fun place. Love the salad, the more veggies the better! Can’t wait to see your PB treat! I made soba noodles with veggies for dinner, it was soooo good. I will post recipe soon!

That looks another wonderful Bostonian spot. I have to keep your reviews on file when I visit this summer
. Can’t wait to see what PB treat you whipped up tomorrow!

I’m the most envious of your juicy looking peach! Our peaches are not nearly as nice-looking here…

I can’t wait to see your peanut butter treat! Your baked goods always look so delicious. I love the way you just throw things together; challenged by not having the ‘perfect’ ingredients. I’ve been trying to do that more in my baking, too!

Can’t wait to see the peanut butter treat…:D

What an awesome restaurant!

Thank you for directing me to the page about how you and Mal met. It is the cutest story! I loved reading it. It will be so fun to show your kids (if you have any) what a long history you have.

Good luck with the house hunting! I know it can be a bit stressful, but it’s SOOO exciting!
The salad sounds great. I love fresh, crisp salads!
Caroline — June 17, 2009 @ 12:10 am
Now THAT is what a salad should look like–no lame iceberg there!
Stacey — June 17, 2009 @ 7:24 am
Yay for productivity! It must be so exciting looking for a home together! My boyfriend and I talk about it all the time and sometimes I just cant WAIT to go through that process with him
Good luck with tomorrows houses!
