Keva Juice loves Race for the Cure!

If you haven't heard, we at Keva Juice LOVE ta-tas! :) We are committed to raising funds for Susan G. Komen for the Cure and finding a CURE for breast cancer!

I participated in the Race for the Cure this morning and I had so much fun! Despite the too-cool-for-my-liking weather and gross drizzly rain, I had a great time! Normally I run the race, as I like to be competitive. This year, however, I was lucky enough to have my mom with me, and since she is not a runner, we walked and still had an awesome time! There were over 6,000 participants and I couldn't be more thrilled.

Not only am I a participant in the Race for the Cure, but I am also a member of the Race Committee. This year I was in charge of the Competitive Runner Recruitment Committee and the Sleep in for the Cure Committee. After MONTHS of planning and meetings, this year's event went off without a hitch (even though it rained)!

Plus, I met these sassy, bodacious broads dressed in pink from head to toe! How fun!

As I got started walking with my mom this morning, I got a little teary. In the background I heard the song "I Run for Life" by Melissa Etheridge. While I am not a huge Melissa Etheridge fan, I can't help but be touched by the lyrics of this song. When I participate in a Race for the Cure or a Breast Cancer 3-Day event, I really feel like I am doing something, like I am doing something so much bigger.

I feel so fortunate that my mom was there to walk with me. I know how many people have lost their mothers, sisters, grandmothers, aunts, best friends, coworkers, neighbors, etc. to breast cancer. I promise to do my part in helping to find a cure! I look forward to a day when we will no longer need Races for the Cure and Breast Cancer 3-Days. Until then, we'll keep walking, running, and racing...striving for a CURE.

THINK PINK!  KEEP IT JUICY!

Thirsty Thursday AND a recap!

I have SO much to catch you all up on! I am so sorry I haven't written in a few days but I have traveling and movin' and shakin'!

First of all, I have to tell you all about Dine America 209! It was so much fun and I got the amazing opportunity to meet some really amazing restaurant industry leaders! And I got some awesome ideas and fun stuff that I can't to throw out there for all you Keva Juice lovers! Just know that great stuff is coming!! :)

While there, I got to hear presentations from Rich Karlgaard, Publisher of Forbes, Alfred Lin, COO and CFO of Zappo's, Robert Baxley, COO of Zaxby's, and Don Fox, COO of Firehouse Subs. Neat!

Here is a pic of me and Alfred Lin from Zappo's. His presentation was the BEST!

We had dinner one night at Hard Rock Cafe! The food was delicious and good times were had by all.

Guess what else!? I got my post card from London from Jessica Lynn over at Jesstagirl and Her Officer! I won her blog contest a while back and I was so excited to get this surprise in my inbox! I have done extensive traveling overseas, but I haven't been to London yet! Maybe one day! :) I LOVE blog contests!!

And last, but certainly not least, its Thirsty Thursday! Today I bring you a little goodie inspired by the Dine America conference! I hope it tickles your taste buds. :)

Enjoy, Keva Luvas!

KEEP IT JUICY!

Oh, Mango Tango, I love you.

Geez, Louise. I'll be honest. This week has been killer. I have been so busy. You probably wouldn't believe me, but being Keva Kate is a pretty demanding job. I've been working on some new fun promotions for all you Keva lovers, talking to LOTS of Keva guests and store owners to find out what they think of all the cool things going on, and planning some super duper adventures that I have coming up!

The weather has been getting cooler and the days have been getting shorter and I am so excited that fall is here! To me, fall means comfort foods and football games. It means raking big piles of leaves and then ruining them by jumping right in. It means apple cider and pumpkin-flavored...anything! :)

I have been feeling a little under the weather lately, so I made sure to grab a Mango Tango this morning...and I even threw in an extra Emergen-C...just for good measure.

    KEEP IT JUICY!
