It's a Graduation Celebration!
Well, I graduated from MU this weekend!! This is double-exciting, as now I am done with school AND I can get paid for telling people what to eat! hooray! Kidding, kind of.... Anyway, celebrations such as this deserve lots of good food! This weekend definitely delivered!
 (This is my dietetics class at graduation yesterday...I'm the one in front, with the dreads.) She made a quinoa-veggie salad...  A Mediterranean-style pasta salad... Guacamole, using my recipe....it got devoured by everyone! And, a vegan pie!! This was a berry-rhubarb pie in a almond-lemon whole wheat crust! It was delicious! Go Sarah!  She also made a salad with greens from her garden, grilled portabella mushroom burgers, and grilled pineapple, which I ate before I could take pics! Thanks for all your hard work and delish food, girl!  (That's the lovely Sarah, on the right and me on the left!)Here's my wonderful mother and me at the party, being happy and goofy....  Before graduation yesterday, we went out for our traditional Sunday breakfast at Cafe Berlin! No weekend would be complete without it! It was absolutely gorgeous outside, so we had to sit out and enjoy the sunshine while we ate!! My morning pick-me-up: The Dirty Hippie! It's a soy chai latte with a shot of espresso added in...and a little sprinkle o' cinnamon on top! This is so goooood!!!  And, to eat, my favorite: The Veggie-Tofu Scramble! Tofu scrambled with TONS of yummy veggies (some of them local), served with roasted potatoes/sweet potatoes and locally-made whole wheat toast (with organic raspberry jam, duh.)...I love this meal! Then, after all the ceremonies, I had my graduation party! It was held at my old place of work, Main Squeeze Natural Foods Cafe! Thanks to my mom for throwing this for me and to Leigh (she owns the Squeeze) for hosting us and making lots of wonderful food! It was perfect... Leigh made delicious Tofu Salad, with Toasted Pita Triangles...  A Hummus and Veggie Tray...with my favorite house-made hummus and lots of local veggies...  Organic Blue Corn Chips and Homemade Organic Salsa.... And, for dessert, an assortment of baked goods! First, the Coconut Haystacks, Sesame Crunch Bars, and Calico Balls...  And then, Organic Apple Date Bars (my favorite!) and Organic Apple Streusel Bars!  I was so blessed this weekend my all of my wonderful friends and family! Thank you to everyone who took part in the festivities with me!! I love you all very much! (p.s. I have to give a special hello to Josh, who visited my blog before ever meeting me and came to my grad party with a mutual friend by coincidence! And he recognized me from the blog...what a small world!)  related searches : Graduation
