Turtle Leaf Cafe



On Monday of this week, a couple of my friends and I went to a local organic cafe called Turtle Leaf Cafe. Here there are many different delicious options. They serve breakfast and lunch, but do not serve dinner as they close at 3pm on most days. This place is one of my favorite around town because it is local foods and not a chain restaurant. Turtle leaf reminds me a lot of the local diners in my home state of Maine.

While ordering, there are so many options that sounds amazing that it makes it hard to decide to pick. My go to options for lunch is a pineapple mango spinach smoothie with a strawberry turkey brie panini or a strawberry almond salad. For breakfast my favorite is getting two eggs over easy with wheat toast and a pineapple mango spinach smoothie. Since we went early enough for the breakfast menu I ordered my regular breakfast. I can never go wrong with this option. My friend Tiia also got the same meal as me. Gyll on the other hand ordered a breakfast sandwich with the same smoothie as me. Her meal looked very good and I think I might try that next time I am there for breakfast.

When some people hear the word organic they automatically assume it is not tasty food. Realistically though, organic foods taste almost exactly the same as food that have been raised with pesticides. Personally I enjoy organic food since at home my family usually cooks with them. People should not be scared to try organic foods because they are delicious and healthy.

Tanglewood Nature Preserve (4/27/17)

Our first class field trip was to Tangle-Wood Nature Preserve. Here, our professor had us go on a scavenger hunt to explore and focus on different parts of nature that we normally wouldn't pay attention to. My group started off inside capturing images of various animals that were held in cages. After viewing the indoor sights, we ventured outdoors to the nature trail. The ground was very muddy, but that didn't stop our determination to find all of the tasks on the list provided by our professor. My group made it over the first extremely muddy section of the trail to get to a semi dry portion, but as the trail went on, the path got even more wet. Lets just say that my favorite pair of white shoes are now brown. Once we went a little further we came to a down hill section of the trail which we thought we could make it down because our determination was just so high, but our hopes of finishing the trail was officially over when one of my group members slipped in the mud. Even thou...

Tree Hugging

This weeks trip, our class ventured to the woods to embrace the trees. For this task we had to be blindfolded while a partner guided you around to hug a tree. Once you really got to know your tree, your partner would guide you back to the common meeting point where we all started. After being back at the starting point, you had to search for the tree that you hugged. For my group, I had two partners due to the uneven number of people in class that day. Luckily they were my very close friends, so we made this assignment fun. First, I was guiding one of my friend, Gyll, to find the perfect tree for her. Of course my other friend, Tiia, who was also helping guide found the hardest path to follow. We managed to guide Gyll, keep in mind that she was blind folded, down a fairly steep hill, across a stream with out getting wet, find a tree, and get her back to the starting point with out her falling. To me it seems like that takes some skill. When it was my turn to be guided, my two ...
