| Ran into one of my favorite people, Flournoy Holmes. |
 |
| The girl loves the pastries at Alon's so we hit that before leaving. |
 |
| Stopped by Atlanta Activewear for some new duds to make it all perfect. Donna Burke(@yogainheels) was so sweet to my tiny shoppper who rearranged her whole store "helping mommy try on everything pink." |

Dtox Farm trip to okay tree cuttings
SUNDAY: What's for Dinner? How to use the farmers market purchase? English cucumbers were eaten with hummus for lunch-along with strawberries, almond butter and the marshmallows from some "organic" Lucky Charms selection from Whole Foods. Decided to make cole slaw with fennel and rosemary retox drinks. |
 |
Ume Plum Vinegar anyone? If you get an unhelpful person in Whole Foods, they'll say "all our vinegars are there. If not there, 'sorry'. " If you get a helpful person, they will call on that walky talky and find out that it is actually in a totally different section and take you there or bring it to you. |

| Juiced Lemon, Lime, Ginger for ReTox Juice. Blueberry Fizz with Presecco
|
 |
His was with apple cider.
|
 |
| My julienne skills are lacking. |
 |
| Okay-so not the most beautiful dinner, but the briny, salty tartness of the Ume Plum vinegar was a great contrast to the sweet fingerling potatoes. Dinner was missing one other item but we were enjoying or blueberry fizzes so. Cole Slaw 1 large green cabbage Ume plum vinegar 1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced 3 carrots, julienned 1/2 red onion (ommitted) 6 small radishes sliced into matchsticks 1/4 cup soy free vegannaise Cabbage sliced into thins strips. Place in large bowl and sprinkle generously with ume plum vinegar. Cover and let sit for 2 hours. Stir every 30 minutes. Cabbage will break down considerably. When done, tranfer cabbage to a collander, rinse and drain to remove excess vinegar. Dry and return to bowl. Add fennel, carrots, onion and radish and toss to combine. Fold in mayo to evenly coat, then serve. Store leftovers for up to 5 days refrigerated in air tight container. Serves 6 |

| UPDATE: I forgot the main reason I bought the fennel-to juice it. We dont use it at the store bc it isn't readily available but I did use it on Better Mornings Atlanta when I juiced. We called it Better Mornings Juice. Better Mornings Juice Recipe 1/2 green apple 4 carrots 3 fennel stalks, include leaves and flowers 1/2 cucumber 1 handful spinach 1 inch ginger (however I was nervous and put a handful of ginger and almost killed the poor man) |
