Day Off

Today Amanda and I woke up quasi-early and decided against our usual ritual of having downtown food carts for lunch. Instead, we ended up going to Vita Cafe, a quaint restaurant boasting only the finest vegan/vegetarian fare as well as fair trade, organic, local, and environmentally conscious products. This place kicks so much ass! I had the Seitan Philly Cheesesteak with a side of fries, and Amanda had her all-time fave Tempeh Fried Steak with a side of potatoes. I had a Wyder's Dry Pear Cider and Amanda had a cup (a few to be exact!) of Stumptown Coffee...also a really awesome local vendor. They roast some of the best coffee around fo' realzies! We followed lunch up with some quick grocery shopping at
WFM, then figured we would visit the New Seasons that isn't too far. New Seasons is pretty much Central Market on crack. They carry everything Whole Foods would and top it all off by adding all that high fructose corn syrup shit that everyone tries to deny they buy after they're done shopping with us. Sad to say, we gave in too and bought some snacks that we could've picked up at Whole Foods but failed to do so. We also got a really cute coaster with a bike on it. =]

For some reason, Amanda was dying to go to the park up the hill from us so I agreed to go after some convincing. (We're also still a bit sick and trying to get over it.) We walked a quick trail, something I'm really not all that in to but whatev, visited the Oregon Holocaust Memorial, and then took a quick ride on the see-saw cuz we're just that ghetto. Much fun was had and the weather was amazing so we decided to take advantage of that while we could. Overall, a great day off with my boo. Can't wait for tomorrow!





XO AMY!

PS. I grew up listening to country music here and there, so here is a small play list I made that is worthy of taking a listen to.
