Hey guys!
Blogging again from a parking lot…but this time, the cell phone parking lot at the San Francisco airport as I wait for my mom’s flight to get here. So far it’s delayed. 
But first, GREEN FEST!!!!
What a totally cool event!!! Y’all would have gone crazy……hundreds of booths filled with organic products. I’m incredibly proud of myself for not buying anything! I did leave with a ton more GRASS but that’s to be expected. 
I snacked on one of my favorite bars—
Drank some kombucha—
Had a few sips of acai juice, which I loved!
And also chugged some some kids berry superfood, which is oh so delicious. I swear, the stuff tastes like grape juice. Here’s another fun Amazing Grass fact for y’all. I sent Kevin a huge box of the stuff to test out and he is 100% addicted (his favorites are the chocolate energy bars and the berry SuperFood!) and tonight he said all the guys on line at the restaurant were chugging SuperFood right before service started at Woodfire. How crazy cool is THAT?! Yay for grass!
I left the show around 5:30 and headed to the Marina to meet Lindsay and Amber for dinner at The Plant Cafe! I was so excited to eat here because Kath’s food looked aaaaamazing from the other day and I’ve heard great things. Needless to say, it did not disappoint!
I had the “plant burger” after great reviews—
YUM!!!! I’m just going to say: this was the very best veggie burger I’ve EVER had. It was absolutely perfect in every way. The only flaw I could find was that it was a tad messy (or maybe that was just me?). They make the burger in house with beets, lentils and grains…and then I had it topped with white cheddar, caramelized onions and avocado on grilled sourdough bread. I ate every last crumb!
I also grabbed two cookies to go in case my mom was hungry after her long flight. 1 peanut butter and 1 oatmeal raisin…..I was only going to eat half of the peanut butter but it was just TOO good so I ate the whole thing!
Thank you girls for meeting me and hanging out!
Time to check flight status…..did I mention that DEXTER is with her????!!!!

Jenna, Congrats on all of your new-found opportunities! It’s good to read that you’re not taking them for granted at all; I’m so jealous of all of the amazing food you’ve been privileged to eat! Just a quick note about Acai juice that I’ve recently heard about…the villagers from the harvest area in S. America have been drinking acai juice for years & have led long, healthy lives as a result. However, because it’s just recently become popular elsewhere, it is in extreme high demand and the villagers are poor, so they are selling out. Unfortunately, it is to their own detriment, because now they cannot reserve any for themselves. I am going to make a conscious effort to NOT drink full-on Acai when I have so many other options available to me here in the US. I’d rather not take something away from the villagers that was theirs (although I do realize that the money is helping them tremendously). Just some food for fodor (sp?)…
Jenna, have a WONDERFUL time with your Mom! Did the veggie burger actually taste like a real burger???
Oh, that “burger” looks so good!! And yay for your mom AND Dexter coming!! I’ve seen that Acai juice before, and was tempted to try it — I think I will now!
okay… i didn’t mention plant cafe in my recommendations yesterday because i’d had a bad experience there before.. but your review + kath’s review is making me want to go back.
have a lovely weekend with your mother!
That booth looks like heaven! How could you have resisted all the other vendors?? Wish I could have attended.
I am definitely putting The Plant Cafe on my “go-to” list. Looks amazing!
last night was fun! Have a great time showing your mom around and shopping with here! Hope to see you again soon! I had fun chatting =)
I absolutely LOVE Amazing Grass – I use it pretty much every day!
It’s so cool that you’re working for Amazing Grass now! I bought a huge container of Chocolate Amazing Meal when you first offered a coupon on the blog, and now I am addicted! I’m almost out, though — any chance there are more special offers coming for your blog readers??
Just had to pop on to say how much I LOVE Amazing Grass! I love the bars and brought down sample packs of the powders on vacation for my smoothies – the mango one is awesome.
I’ll have to find my discount codes when I get home and place a big order. SO fun to see you at the booth. Let me know if you come to Seattle for a food or Green show!
can i just say that after watching top chef, i am totally jealous that you met and hung out with kevin and eli? they’re definitely my favorite guys from this season
also, love the grass, especially the chocolate amazing meal
