Two days in a row of microphone talk!
Today’s event with the inaugural Cville Food Bloggers Round Table hosted by Cville Connect. My friend Mike is starting a podcast all about food, and we kicked it off today with Bella Eats, Gracefulfitness and The Diner Of Cville!
I was nervous getting going, but once we started talking, we found ourselves in a time warp and covered 50 minutes of conversation no problemo. The podcast will be available on Monday, and I’ll share with you – it’s more food + food scene than Cville specific, so I think every foodie would enjoy listening.
Earlier this morning, I did the Synergy workout of my Expecting More DVD [note that they sent me a freebie to review on BERF – now that I’ve done 3/6 workouts, I’ll be writing a recap review thus far soon]. This was an hour workout of both cardio + strength and I really enjoyed it. I’m missing Body Pump tomorrow for a nutrition event, so it was great to get in my strength a day early.
No weights? No problem! Just use horseshoes!
They were the perfect weight! But Faith said she would let me borrow some of her free weights from her studio so I could prevent clanking injuries!
After my workout and a shower, I packed up some almonds and a string cheese to bring to the podcast in case I got hungry. I nibbled on half of the almonds but am saving the string cheese for later. I didn’t think how inconvenient it would be to eat string cheese and talk at the same time : ) That might create some kind of string cheese incident…
Once back home, I was ready for lunch! My hunger levels were right on, but for some reason I rushed through this salad and ate it way too fast! Probably just because it was so good.
- Greens
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Hard-boiled egg
- Leftover sweet potato fries
- Bread “croutons”
- Avocado
- GOAT CHEESE!
In love with this raspberry lemonade-infused water!
Conference call in 4 minutes!
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says
How cool that you were on a podcast! Haha and I love the couch and microphone set up! Can’t wait to hear it!
Melissa @ HerGreenLife says
I want that salad — especially the hard-boiled eggs. And the sweet potato fries!
The new foodie podcast sounds fun 🙂
Jess says
I love that I can see my fiancee’s blurry face behind that mic!! 😛
KathEats says
Haha. I love that I hear him on the radio on Z95’s sports report when I’m making breakfast! He is so famous!
Jess says
That makes me giggle!! I think of him as the dope who can’t get his clothes into the laundry basket… Someone’s gotta bring him down a peg right?!?
I can’t WAIT to hear this!!! I came up with the idea on a run like 6 months ago…going to be so awesome to hear it come to fruition! 😀
KathEats says
Hahaha
kathleen @ the daily crumb says
that salad is so bright and colorful! very excited to read the full review of your workout dvds.
Stephanie @ Legally Blinde says
You’re getting to be quite the celebrity! Very cool 🙂 Your salad looks amazing.
Johanna B says
Looking forward to the podcast. Glad you’re gonna share with us.
Kaila @healthyhelperblog! says
Sounds like a fun event! I would love to be apart of a round table like that! being surrounded by fellow foodies is awesome!
Averie @ Averie Cooks says
I havent played horseshoes in about…10 years!
And that roundtable and chitchat session would be so fun. Girl talk. Does a mind, body, and spirit some good!
Claire @ Live and Love to Eat says
Busy busy day for you and BERF 🙂
Nikki T says
Your rasp-lemonade infused water looks lovely!
I’ve been trying to come up with some great mocktails for the summer…I’m not a huge drinker generally, but the social aspect of it while camping is I think what I will miss over my pregnant-summer this year…
Need something with a little fizz so I can partake in the cocktail hours!
Mike Bisceglia with CvilleConnect says
Had a blast Kath! Glad to get you in the studios. Amazing how many topics there really are to talk about, it never ends. Will be up Monday.
Haley S. says
Loved the great band reference….they’re wicked awesome
Catalina @ Cake with Love says
I would love to hear teh podcast!! Your salads always look so good!!
Ashley @ Coffee Cake and Cardio says
How fun!! I think it’s great that you partake in things like this.
Cait's Plate says
That salad looks amazing. You managed to get a little bit of everything good in there!!
Stephanie says
There is a band from Colorado (where I am from) called “The String Cheese Incident” so that line about not eating string cheese during your podcast made me LOL. 🙂
KathEats says
That’s what I was referencing 🙂 I’ve heard of ’em
Stephanie says
I figured as much, I was just shocked no one else had mentioned it in the comments!
Faith @ Gracefulfitness says
That was pretty cleaver Kath. 🙂
Susan @ Lawrence 785 says
string cheese incident, eh? I see what you did there.
I would inhale that salad too, it looks AWESOME. Love the ‘croutons’, i’ll have to remember that!
Krissy @ Shiawase Life says
LOL I love that you randomly have horseshoes.
Karen says
Did you buy that lemonade-infused water or did you make it? Do you have a brand name or recipe you can share?
Thanks so much!
KathEats says
I mixed about 2 ounces of this with water (found at Whole Foods – it’s delicious!) http://www.scojuice.com/products/juices/raspberry_lemonade
Allison k says
Just an FYI to those who don’t have or shop at whole foods…this brand is available at most mainstream grocery stores as well. At least out west!
Caroline says
Hi Kath!
So my parents are currently vacationing in Virginia, and I told them that if they go to Charlottesville they have to stop at the Great Harvest Bread Co. to take a picture of my favorite blog writer’s bakery. Well they just informed me that they are in Cville today, and that they stopped at your bakery for lunch! My mom said that she talked to Karen for quite a while! I was so excited when my mom told me this, and I can’t wait to see their pictures! It’ll be so neat to see them at your bakery, because I’ve been following your blog for over a year and a half! I only wish that I could have been there with them-I hope I can visit one day too!
-Caroline
KathEats says
Hey Caroline! I’m so sorry I wasn’t able to get down there – I had a call at 3 I had to be home for. Hope they had a great visit, and so glad Karen was able to welcome them to Cville!
Maura @ My Healthy 'Ohana says
I’ve been looking for some good prenatal workout DVDs, will check out Expecting More! I’ve found a few on Netflix Watch Instantly, but haven’t actually spent any money on buying DVDs yet.
KathEats says
It’s really good! Challenging too
colleen says
Have you ever tried Ellen Barrett’s workout DVDs? They’re low impact and include a lot of pilates and yoga elements, but you still get a really good cardio and strength workout. I think they’re awesome, specifically some of her newer ones (“The Studio” and “Live” series), and I think they’d be great for someone who’s pregnant.
That salad looks amazing, btw… I’m craving hard boiled eggs!
KathEats says
I haven’t…I’m very new to DVD fitness
Faith @ Gracefulfitness says
Man, that salad looks so good! I probably should have taken you up on your offer of staying for lunch!
KathEats says
Haha yeah!
Jenee Libby says
I had SUCH an awesome time today…….can’t wait to write about it! Thanks Kath 🙂
KathEats says
Me too!
Angel7 says
I wish I had some raspberry lemonade-infused water, because I am thirsty for something other than plain water.

Amelia says
Your salad made me drool a little 🙂
Whitney says
Have you seen this video yet? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukdoK3l4aM4
Made me think of you, but I couldn’t agree less, I love seeing what people eat! Does make for a funny video though 🙂
KathEats says
HA!!!
Carla says
The The String Cheese Incident reference made me laugh out loud! I never figured you as a SCI fan, Kath! Looking forward to the podcast
Kerry @ Totes My Oats says
That must have been a fun experience! Very cool.
Angela @ Happy Fit Mama says
What a great idea for a roundtable podcast discussion on all things local!
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
That salad LOOKS good!
Khushboo says
Innovative alternative to weights. 🙂
Virginia Bloggers says
We can’t wait to hear the podcast!!!
Lorin says
It’s awesome how you are so in tune with your hunger cues. It’s a good think to try to model from.

The podcast sounds like fun!
