A Peek Inside the Foodbuzz Festival Swag Bag

11/08/10

I spent this past weekend meeting and eating in San Francisco at the 2nd Annual Foodbuzz Blogger Festival. After a busy and draining week of work which involved juggling a multitude of projects while scouting event venues in San Francisco, I was ready to unwind and immerse myself in the food blogger world with the objective of finding the healthiest way to enjoy the event. I had been reading the Tweets praising the swag bag all afternoon so once I got my hands on mine, I couldn’t wait to dig in!

I’m a junkie for kitchen gadgets and there was no dirth of them here. My favorite was the Silvermark Toss and Chop. I can see myself using the heck out of this!


The Calphalon Slotted Spoon was a gem as well. I have a couple of these so may enlist it as a stocking stuffer this Christmas.

I had to laugh out loud when the Saag’s vacuum-packed Salami and Sausage emerged from the mountain of swag. I reluctantly gave these to my boyfriend but they, of course, weighed in low on the health scale.


And I’m not even sure what to say about this knife – do I even trust myself with this thing??!!? Maybe I’ll tuck this one away for now ๐Ÿ˜‰


The rest of the bag was literally overflowing with goodies like coupons, measuring cups, a probiotic chocolate bar from attune, a Ghirardelli choocolate bar, mint flavored water and loads of other fun knicks and knacks.

Follow my coverage of the Foodbuzz Festival this week. I’ll be bringing you the healthy highlights of an exciting and inspirational weekend!

I was in the West Village for an event and hadn't had my matcha fix yet. I passed Aoko and made a mental note. 

Then I proceeded to pass many more matcha cafes with long lines. 

Aoko didn't have a line and it seemed authentic to me. Also, I recalled hearing good things. 

The vibe was a little sterile. You order off a screen and there's a huge selection of matcha drinks and ice cream. Then wait for your number to be called. 

I chose the Coconut Matcha Cloud. There was no description on the screen and the actual drink looked nothing like the photo. 

It was a cloud of whipped matcha floating on top of coconut water with tapioca-like shapes on the bottom. 

My expectations were low. But I ended up being pleasantly surprised. Once the whipped matcha mixed with the coconut water, it was incredibly creamy and I could tell the matcha was high quality. 8.5/10. I'll be back to try the regular matcha latte. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’‹๐Ÿต

This is a new-to-me boutique jewelry brand. The pieces are stunning, hold meaningful affirmations and are just incredibly wearable.

I even got to meet the Founder @jennlow.wco who explained the meaning and inspiration behind the pieces.

There were so many beautiful pieces to layer and try on. I chose the Heart Locket Necklace to take home.

Inside it says "follow your heart" and it can be worn open or closed though I like it opened best.

I was also eyeing the You are Magic Medallion Locket.

So I bought that too!

Such a fun morning in the West Village! I can't wait to wear my new jewelry! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’‹๐ŸชŽ #wcocommunity
There is so much beauty and nature in and around N There is so much beauty and nature in and around NYC and so much to see and do. We've been taking advantage of the perfect weather and venturing beyond our neighborhood with Valentina to show her all this incredible city has to offer. Last weekend was @metcloisters and @forttryonpark , which brought me back to 2007 in the city when I would circumnavigate Manhattan on my bike starting at the East River down to the The Battery and up the Hudson River to The Cloisters and Fort Tryon Park then back down the East River through Harlem- a 30 mile round trip. We enjoyed a long walk and explored the stunning gardens inside the park before perusing the museum. The perfect way to spend a holiday Monday. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’‹๐Ÿฐ
