After this morning’s run and the stressful college football viewing the followed, we were ready for a relaxing evening.
This evening includes some much needed time on our couch enjoying one of our favorite movies! (Name that movie? :))
I washed the relaxation down with a delicious glass of our favorite 2007 BV Chardonnay. Did you know that 2007 was a great year for California Chardonnay?
Unfortunately, my dinner didn’t go down quite as well as the wine. I’ve been eyeing a nearby restaurant on Seamless Web due to it’s rave reviews and menu items. It’s the only Seamless Web restaurant near us that includes tofu, organic options, and mouth watering vegetable descriptions. Tonight I took the plunge and finally ordered two of their top rated items, raw kale salad and a quesadilla.
They weren’t exactly pretty when they arrived. Regardless of it’s looks, I was especially excited to try the kale salad. I’ve read about raw kale salads on other blogs for ages.
Unfortunately, raw kale salad and I were not fast friends. Instead I found the texture difficult to palate and the flavor far too plant like. Bo asked immediately, “what were you expecting, it’s raw kale?” I think I was expecting something that would at least have a great flavor to balance the kale’s strong flavor. Maybe it was just a bad experience? Have you tried raw greens or massaged kale salad? Any tips?
Have a wonderful and relaxing rest of your weekend. My Sunday plans include a massage, yoga, a little bit of work, house cleaning, and then dinner with friends!
