Nair & Massaged Kale Salads

Seriously, where do I come up with these titles? Ladies, the time is here! Put away the throngs of cable knit and opaque tights and bust out your greatest razor! Spring has arrived and I’m eating al fresco…literally. We don’t even own a table for the patio yet so I parked it right next to our “herb garden.” Admire that urban jungle…rawr!

P.S. don’t you find it funny that “natural” in our society is hairless? wtf. I wish it was socially acceptable to omit this act of hygiene and I may eat like a little cavegirl but I don’t want to look like one :)

1. What are you craving these days? This week I’m on a massaged kale salad kick.

2. Are you anti-shaving or do you conform like I do?

    Hahah….it is totally that time but I am totally unkempt at this point. Worse than when I was preggo!!! I am a shaver..I USUALLY can’t wait and let things grow for a wax. Can not stand body hair at all. Won’t go into detail but 10 months preggo and I still made sure my routine was in tact.

    Glad to be able to play catch up on blogs tonigh! Glad to see you are adorable as always :-)

    I am fortunate to be Asian so I don’t need to shave. :)

    I’m in a protein cake kick this week!

    I also hate body hair- although it’s the most painful method I epilate because it removes it by the root but it can deal with hairs that are too short to wax. My leg and underarm hair is actually quite fine but I can’t bear to look at it! I’m craving oranges a lot recently- loving them on salads.

    You should get pillows to sit on in the meantime :D make it a sanctuary patio that is meant to be enjoy at a low level! I think that’d be fun hehehe.

    1. I am craving fresh fruits and veggies… mostly fresh fruit… specfically frozen mango!!!

    2. I don’t shave, but I wax. I don’t really fret about it though. There are times when I let myself get hairy, but maybe I don’t mind it because it’s not really noticeable anyhow. A lot of women I’m around though are anti-shaving.

    XOXO!

    Well, I’m a shaver, mostly. But then, sometimes when the husband is working both early and late and nothing seems to matter, well, things get ugly. One morning as I was teaching yoga, I looked down at the legs below my capris and thought “oh good lord, the poor students!” So that has got to stop.

    Lately I want peanut butter and raw cacao smoothies every morning and huge salads with avocado and “stuff” every evening. But I’m still not over the cooked veggies either, it’s not hot enough yet. So a side of broccoli rabe at every dinner.

        Well tonight it’s Rosemary Quackers from One Lucky Duck, Avocado, Sea Salt, Zucchini Lemon dressing. Sometimes it’s roasted red peppers and portobellos with creamy cashew “cheese”. Edamame with asparagus…but almost always avocado!

    Sometimes I try and hold out for a few days, but I really don’t like the stubbly feel when my legs run together!

    I conform. :) My cravings are centered around fresh and savory atm – salads, miso soups, sushi, things like that. Pretty much Asian, as most of the time. :)
