Long gone are the lazy days of Sunday brunches at corner cafes since my little guy has turned two. Although my second choice this year was even better than the best Sunday brunch at ANY corner cafe! We all went to Arnold's Cafe in Lansdale, PA (which was originally located in Manayunk) It's a raw foods cafe and health food store, so it's pretty darn casual and kid friendly, too! Score! And everytime I eat there I get so inspired to buy, prepare and eat more raw foods everyday. Preparing raw is a lot of fun, but of course having someone else make it is even better! They have a delicious menu of salads, entrees, smoothies and desserts! I am literally like a kid in a freaking candy store when we go there! I decided on a "Zesty" salad, Mike got a "Toona Sandwich" which was all vegetarian and all raw! We also got a blueberry smoothie which my two year old slurped down without coming up for air, some "Rejuvenator" juice which was apples, carrots, celery and ginger all put through a juicer, and ended with a banana, carob and date whip which is literally better than any icecream I have tasted! Okay, now my mouth is watering! I forgot to mention they also have soups and wraps and host a whole bunch of workshops and potlucks to inspire and educate on raw food living! It's worth checking out and may just inspire you as well! Happy Momma's Day to me!!!P.S. Arnold's is big on their "Green Smoothie" mission. Promoting them for building strong immune systems, prevention of cancers and other diseases.....sooooo..........we have been on a green smoothie kick here in our house (bananas, leafy greens (such as spinach) apples, water and some blueberries) and we are loving every slurp!
