Friday after work I headed downtown to meet the Hubz and grab a bite to eat before we headed to our spa appointment. I decided that I we should try a place we had never been, New Moon Cafe, at first glance I thought the place was super tiny but when we got in a little further we realized the place was huge! We have decided that with the free wi-fi we probably will be spending a lot more time here, except strangely they are not open on Saturday’s.
The Hubz and I shared the grilled veggie sandwich (sundried tomato pesto is vegan!), a Gus soda and a bag of Zapp’s Spicy Cajun Crawtators chips. Everything was delicious!
After our bite to eat we went for a walk to kill some time before our spa appointment.
Finally it was time to enjoy our spa treatment! Since there were no cameras or cellphones allowed I didn’t get any shots but let me tell you it was amazing! Here are some photos from the Jivana website:

The Sugar Scrub Table
After the amazing Balinese massage I had a sugar scrub and left the spa feeling refreshed, renewed and so relaxed. I decided to go with the lemongrass massage oil and body scrub and it really did smell wonderful.
After our spa appointment it was getting pretty late so we decided to go out for some yummy Asian Food. We got the avocado roll to share and then I got a big bowl of tom kar soup with tofu, veggies and udon noodles. The Hubz got this great dish which was almost like a deconstructed sushi roll both amazing and ridiculously filling.
Q: What are you treating yourself to this year?
I would love to treat myself to one of those grilled vegetable sandwiches, that looks great.
I have picked up a few odd jobs here and there this past month, so I think I may treat the boy and I to a night at a play or to a museum and a calm meal. The spa idea doesn’t sound so bad either, though…
That spa sounds amazing! I wish I could find more places here that offer nity vegan friendly packages besides just the massage. It sounds delightful.
What am I treating myself to this year? I don’t really know… that is rather sad isn’t it! I did just get back from a weekend in Sydney to see Joss Whedon talk and the Opera House, so I guess that counts as a pretty big treat. 😉
