It was such a fun trip, I hadn't been to the Robina Mrs Flannery's before & it's so much bigger & better than others! My haul included vegan parmesan, wakame, a bliss bar, mungbean & soybean organic chips, torula yeast, freeze-dried apricots, apple cider vinegar, a kitz super supreme bar as well as kitz herb, dulse & spirulina crackers and some blackstrap molasses! I was so excited, plus mum doesn't think i've been getting enough iron lately and she talked about it to one of the women working there who suggested i drink a warm glass of soymilk with 3tblsp molasses at night before bed to increase my iron intake, which is no problem with me- sounds yum!After my successful shop we stopped by a little organic vegan restaurant (cause obviously we hadn't bought enough food that day!) The cafe called One World Love Cafe had the yummiest sounding dishes; i found it hard not to say 'i'll have one of everything!' However I was able to restrain myself and ended up with a scrumptious aduki bean patty. It was good crispy on the outside and all squishy goodness inside...
I then tried one of their green smoothies, it was made with apple, spinach and parsley though the parsley was hugely overpowering it so it tasted like i was drinking pure parsley. I'm not the hugest parsley fan in the world but I drank it up anyway knowing how super good it is for me
Mum tried their potato bake with a side salad which she absolutley adored!
I was pretty full after downing my parsley smoothie but i desperately wanted to try the goji berry & coconut slice they had so I took one home for later and it was SU-PERB! So good, this picture in no way does it justice. It was sweet but not too sweet with a hit of coconut-ty deliciousness & a slight goji berry undertone
Anyway I really wanna buy a good yoga dvd on ebay but I can't decide. Anyone know of a really good yoga dvd?? Also I'm going to take the suggestions of several people and make my own lara-type style bars so watch out for those comin your way soonKeep smiling everyone :)

Great goodies you got at the store! I am a big sea veggie fan! :)

I like Gaiam Power yoga with Rodney Yee. It's an hour long and it's pretty strenous.
Can't wait for those homemade Lara Bars!
Mmm vegan stuff looks really tasty!
I've seen a lot of blogs and stuff about green smoothies lately... I must admit I'm getting rather intrigued!
Oh the green colored smoothie looks so pretty!!
This place sounds like a really neat store. I love going to places like that and just looking around for new things to try.
The soymilk with molasses sounds so yummy! And, I'm a huge fan of green smoothies - "yay" to you for drinking it down even if it had too much parsley :)
Cheers,
Kristen

Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love seeing other people's grocery hauls. Gives me new ideas for my own shopping trip. =)

oh! What I have pictured there actually is green tea iced tea XD I have been drinking it nonstop (But I always have a nice large mug of hot tea in the morning)
I love green tea iced tea. It tastes so much better then plain old water. plus no sugar or anything.
nothing quences thirst like a large cold glass of GTIT!
