Foodbuzz is SO fun!!!!!!!!!
I’m having a total blast here in the city with everyone. And let me just say, Foodbuzz KNOWS how to throw a party! And give awesome swag bags—
Since we last chatted, I ate a Pure Bar (winners announced below!!) and did a quickie upper body workout in the hotel gym. Then, my roomie and I headed upstairs to the terrace cocktail party to meet everyone! I tried an “autumn apple martini”, which was the drink of the night—
It was good…but a little sweet so I only drank half. Kath was drinking bourbon and I took a few sips but I’m still recovering from my Booker’s on Monday night so went with water.
We mingled for awhile and then at 7:00, walked across the street to the ferry building where a FEAST in the form of street vendors was set up for us!!! Y’all, I have never in my life eaten better street food. It was aaaaamazing!!!!!!!
THE MOST AMAZING SANDWICH EVER!!
Everything was soooooo good! The night ended with….more water 🙂
Currently, I’m sitting in my hotel room with Sabrina, Meghann, Tina and Kath and, naturally, we are all five sitting here in our pajamas blogging……because that’s what we do. Tomorrow everyone is going running except for me (ankle!) so I’m hitting the gym again while they’re gone. Then, there’s breakfast, farmer’s market and seminars….I signed up for an olive oil tasting and a merlot tasting, naturally. 😉

Oh Jenna Foodbuzz looks like so much FUN! You’re torturing me with those pictures of the bay and the ferry building. I miss it so much there. I’m glad that you’re totally enjoying it and even making the best of your ankle situation. I know it’s gonna heal soon! I’m stoked that you are going to the Farmer’s Market tomorrow morning! You are going to love love love it! Even though it’s winter time there will still be plenty of produce and samples. You must try the hummus and baba from the guy in the way way back across from the raw juice people. His hummus is amazing!
Oh and ps- are you going to the Green Festival in SF next weekend? It’s a freaking awesome event that I know you would love. Let me know and I can give you all the details.

November 7, 2009 at 4:34 amLooks like great fun! Congrats to the winners – let us know what those bars are like!! I just found KIND bars – has anyone tried them??!!
Also – if anyone knows much about lentils/beans or nice recipes with them – check out my latest post and suggest please?! I’m trying to incorporate them more into my meals for variety…is it good to pair veggies (like broccoli) with beans…or is that fiber over-load??!

November 7, 2009 at 5:58 amFoodbuzz conference! Wish I was there but I just started my blog so I have work for a while before heading off to awesome conferences! Okay and I know this has nothing to do about food but did you get that jacket at Forever 21?? I have the SAME exact one and wore it last night too! So cute. 🙂

November 7, 2009 at 6:19 amI love your coat! That is darn cute. May I ask where you got it?
That sandwich looks like a team of food gurus got together to innovate and design it. Man, what an amazing sounding combo.
I really love the idea of the food blogging sleepover. It’s like being 13 again, but instead of prank phone calls, pjs, and horror films…it’s pure bars, digital cameras, and wireless internet. Cute!

November 7, 2009 at 7:10 amall that food looks incredible! i totally hear you with the running thing – i have a bad knee and really have to pace myself and know when to say no! i’m a pilates instructor and wondering are you doing any simple theraband exercises for that ankle? just curious cause it may help get you back to running in the long run (no pun intended!)
