Seems like my "Squirrelly Buns" recipe is a hit :)
I'm so excited that so many of you are going to try them. I promise they are SO easy to make! I love baking and watched my mom every chance I got as a kid, so I learnt everything from her. I want to start posting some gluten-free recipes as well in addition to vegan ones. I like to bake without dairy and eggs because I know most of my readers have food allergies and what not
In true 'Hug a Fat' style I made a delicious nut butter breakfast
Peanut Butter, Jam and Honey on Wheat-Free Bread
Lot's of healthy fats to keep me fueled!
Western Sage Bee Magic Honey with Bee Pollen and Royal Jelly
Crofter's Organic Wild Blueberry Jam
Craving a big chicken and bean stir-fry for lunch. Mixed in
some black-eyed peas with a whole bunch of different veggies

Today is my friend's 21st birthday so I'm going out tonight for
a raw vegan dinner followed by an African drumming session.
Anyone ever been? I'm excited to try it out and see what it's like

Because she is a raw foodie I thought I would suprise her
with a basket of organic fruit. I went to the store and bought
her bananas, apples, mangoes, and kiwis. I also put in a
yellow lily and a weekly yoga planner for her to write in
All I could find was a Christmas basket.. but I'm hoping maybe
the trees will count more as a nature theme than a Christmas theme, no?

Yummy PB & J! You're right, there is something about peanut butter that keeps you satisfied a long time. :)
OMG haha can I be your friend and you'll give me a gorgeous fruit basket like that one? is such a perfect gift!!! :)
Your cinnamon rolls look soooo scrumptious, I love cinnamon so much!! Unfortunately my oven doesn't work :(
And you look so cute in your "hug a fat" pics, love your earrings ^^
What a lovely gift basket, great idea! Not sure if you can pass off the X-mas trees for a nature theme though, LOL.
That sounds like such a fun night. I wish I had more veggie friends and raw foodies, so interesting! I love pb and j..that one is definitely drool-worthy!
Haha I think the trees count as nature themed when you live up north! Maybe not if you were giving it to her in Florida..
African drumming sounds so interesting. I can't wait to hear about it!
What a perfect and thoughtful gift! AND useful too! Love it.
African drumming... sign me up. That sounds like a great time :o) Hope you have fun tonight.
Thats such a great gift for your friend! I would love it haha
I have never been to a drum circle but I've heard a lot about them. I went to three different high schools (long story) and one of the schools I went to was a hippie-ish school with lots of peace-lovin weed-smokin drum circle goers. I didn't really fit in, but I still had a lot of fun with those people. I never had the pleasure of attending the drum circles but everyone said they were fun and a really cool thing to do as a group. Hope you enjoy it! <3
I have done pure raw for a few days - it was fun and challenging!
You got her a perfect gift!
I also LOVE fueling up with healthy fats and I LOVE me some lara bar!
your pb & j looks too good and love the post title..super cute :)
That fruit basket is so cute, I would want one...and the fact the basket is one of my favorite holidays...!! It's ok to have a holiday basket...just reminds me that christmas is cominnnnng! :D
The peanut butter sandwich looks DELICIOUS! :)
OMG must your food always look this delicious?! I keep having to clean my drool off my keyboard! Lol. But... I'm not complaining!
I did a course this semester on Music in Global Context and we did African music too. It's amazing! I didn't get to play on the drums though but some of my course mates did and it looked heck of a lot of fun! I'm sure you'll enjoy tonight!!
Much love,
Nat xoxo
What a cute idea for a gift! I wish I were that creative haha!! I have a friend that goes drumming once a week and she says it's a great stress relief. I hope you enjoyed yourself! BTW, I love your pic. :)
That is such a cute and thoughtful gift! I'd love to get a basket of fruit for my bday. Though unfortunately I'm not exactly turning 21.. ;)
I can't wait to hear how the drumming session went! What an interesting activity!
What a sweet friend you are! Sounds like a blast with the drumming session :)
You are such a good friend! I totally get the nature theme :-)
