Friday Night Drinks
It’s Friday and for those of you who read my blog you know that means it’s After-Work Drinks night with my husband 🙂
Patrick and I enjoy this little activity because it gives us time to sit and chat about a couple things.
- We discuss what has happened during the work week, the good, the bad and the ugly.
- We share what we would both like to accomplish over the weekend.
- Most importantly it’s a way for us to de-stress after a long work week.
Friday After-Work Drinks (done in moderation) is a great way to kick-off the weekend 😀
Breakfast
Same old breakfast of vanilla Chobani yogurt topped with pumpkin pecan granola.  Tastes great and filling.  Perfect combo 🙂
Lunch
I’ve tried the Red Machine and Green Machine Naked Juices so it was time for me to check out the Blue Machine:
The Blue Machine was good but I was really hoping it would have more of a Blackberry taste instead of the strong Blueberry flavor.  My favorite is still the Red Machine 😀
As with all the Naked juices, the ingredients are simple and good for you:
The Fruit Inside
- 27 Blueberries
- 3 Blackberries
- 3 1/4 Apples
- 1 Banana
The Boost Inside
- 38 mg Vitamin B3
- 11 mcg Vitamin B12
- 114 mg Vitamin C
- 19 mg Vitamin B5
- 4 mg Vitamin B6
- 13 g Fiber
- 57 Â IU Vitamin E
I’ve decided Friday’s will be Freshii days 🙂  Which means it will also be soup or salad days.
This Friday I went with a salad.  My salad included romaine lettuce, shaved parmesan, carrots, broccoli, celery, sweet corn, cucumbers, red onions, sunflower seeds and cajun chicken with balsamic vinegar.  I also asked them to chop everything for me.
And boy did they ever. Â This salad was so chopped I could of eaten it with a spoon.
My husband likes to have big pieces of salad but I’m a fan of having everything chopped up.  This way I get a little bit of everything in every bite I take.  Plus I don’t get stuff all over my face from trying to shove a huge piece of lettuce in my mouth 😉
After-Work Drinks
This Friday was extra fun because I had an order of sweet potato chips along with my root beer.
The chips were really good. Â They seasoned them with pepper and salt which was the perfect seasoning.
Question:
What do you do on Friday’s to help kick-off the weekend?

Salad should definitely be cut small! Though, at home I cut my lettuce into “ribbons” —long thin strips.
Friday is a work night for me – (I am a winemaker so I have to be around on the weekends when we get the most foot traffic at the winery) — but Saturday night is the traditional “pizza night” in my house, which definitely makes it feel like the weekend to me — even if I have to go to work the next day.
