Getting Naked for Breakfast

So I still haven't seen Disneynature's Earth yet, but I definitely will by the end of this weekend - that's a promise. Last night I went out for a "light" dinner and drinks at Trattoria Toscana with a few friends to discuss a little project I am helping on and it got a little too late to catch a movie. (I say "light" because it turned into more a feast complete with wine, fresh mozzerella, polenta, and tiramisu. More on that later.)



This morning I was looking for something actually light to have for breakfast and came across Naked Juice's new Bare Breeze, made of 100% natural juice with no preservatives or added sugars. I used to be really anti-juice because it's so sugary and I'm pretty much and all water all the time girl, but lately I've been getting into it. I actually tried to the BluePrint Cleanse for three days (big mistake, I don't think I'm meant not to chew) and have contemplated buying a juicer. As long as it's fresh and natural, as opposed to drinks like Sunny Delight, the benefits of juice are pretty substantial. Not to mention, it gives your stomach a little bit of a break from working on all the other crap in there.

I tried out the Peach Mangosteen Bliss and it was definitely more peachy than mangosteen-y and kind of reminded me of something I would get on a cruise ship with a little umbrella stuck inside - sans the rum, of course. I don't think I could make it a daily staple because the sugar count is so high and also because I found myself pretty thirsty after drinking it, but I did feel quite energized and ready to go. Try it out if you're looking to mix it up.

The Cutest Date I Would Love to Go On

I'm pretty Smitten with all of the blogs over at Glamour.com and today's post for a "Perfect Cheap Date" idea just affirmed my love. Smitten blogger Jo sourced out this tip from Melanie of the blog, you are my fave. Her tip? Take a morning bike ride to a diner and have breakfast. Sounds simple enough, right? Breakfast happens to be my favorite meal of the day and doesn't it seem like most dates are always lunch or later? 

Speaking of dates, I have one on Saturday! (Yikes). This will be my first "real" date in a while. Crap, what am I going to wear?
