Day 7: Wine and Juice!

Today I spent a few hours volunteering for Bordeleau Winery at a local festival. I packed a Tofurky sammy in my purse and managed to avoid the many alluring snacks that accompany those types of events...though I did down about 4 oz. of free vino! Yay! I had such a good time working the event, too! It was lots of fun pouring wine and talking to people. I'm excited to volunteer for the winery again some time!

I want to say a word about fruit juice. I am one of those people who wakes up in the morning and walks zombie-like into the kitchen. I wake up with that first glass of juice! I love my early morning sips of juice, and I've been drinking OJ in the morning for years. However, I recently discovered Fruitables by Apple & Eve.

Fruitables is a blend of fruit and veggie juices. It tastes yummy, but it has 30% less sugar and is almost half the calories of OJ. OJ has 110 calories per 8 oz. serving, and Fruitables only has 60 calories. The ingredients include carrot, beet, sweet potato, and tomato, but it honestly just tastes like fruit punch.

Bonus: They carry it at Sam's Club, so you can get a good deal on it!
