Eat Real Day 3

Today was the 3rd and final day of Eat Real. I worked almost 40 hours this weekend, most of which were spent standing. I usually work about 20 hours a week and stand about 40 hours a month, so my body is a little angry with me, but I'm impressed with my own stamina and I had a good time.

I wonder if my physical torturists will give me the week off since I did so much occupational therapy spooning out all those thousands of nuts into sample cups and did so much standing and walking. I'm not holding my breath on that.

Here are some of today's highlights.


We had the kiddos helping sell today, which was a lot of fun, but they also brought cupcakes and sorbet into the booth. Luckily I was too busy to cry about it and I found some Bren-Friendly food to eat, too. More of my friends also stopped by, which made me happy.

Eat Real Day 2

Today I finally figured out how to stop the hummingbird that is constantly buzzing inside my big toe: just stand on it for 12 hours straight! I can't remember the last time I stood for that long. These days, I only stand for maybe an hour or two a day. Needless to say, my hip and back aren't happy with me, but my foot went numb around the 6 hour mark. I'm sure it will have words for me in the morning, though.

I also found some Bren-friendly Thai, saw a couple friends, and passed out thousands of nut samples (this is not an exaggeration). Not a bad day.




Eat Real Fest

I'm working the nuts booth for Oren's Kitchen at Eat Real Fest this weekend and was able to see my cuz Ryan Farr at his 4505 Meats booth. Check out what he's serving! I wish I could eat it.
