Day Three of the Fitness Challenge

Vitamin WaterIt’s just another manic Monday (oh-woe)

I wish it was Sunday (oh-woe)

Everybody! All together now! No? Okay, well, one of the greatest things about this city is finding great restaurants that have amazing Happy Hour specials.

I started off the day eating spinach with sesame seed vinaigrette and a side of raspberries. (I was on the go, it was the best I could do.) I chased it down with VitaminWater, another yummy earth treasure.

My personal favorite is the new flavor, XXX, which is packed full of blueberry, pomegranate, and acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee). (Acai is the newest berry from the Amazon to be full of antioxidants and it tastes delicious.)

This takes me to my Happy Hour discovery: I decided to check out the Stone Fire Pizza Company, which has half-off apps, half-off pizzas, and half-off drinks. Amaz-ing! I had an order (half order, naturally) of the crab pot stickers (it is hard for me to resist seafood) and a prosciutto and goat cheese pizza. All delicious.

This just might be my newest go to pizza place, although, Stone Fire’s pizza is super thin, crunchy and rather gourmet, which is great in its own right. On the other hand, it’s nice to go to a pizza joint where the pizza is PIZZA; its messy and the cheese stretches from your hand to your mouth.

I drank my usual 120 ounces of water. And finished the day with a bowl of Thai Soup. I did have a bite of a red velvet cupcake from Toast Bakery and Cafe. Other than Grandma Weber’s red velvet cake, Toast’s is the best cupcake version on the planet. The frosting melts in your mouth and the dough is moist and is nothing less than perfect. Oh, and, only $1.95!

The gym was calling my name today. Although I turned a deaf ear to it…he he he…in the words of Miss Scarlet O’Hara: afterall, tomorrow is another day. Indeed it is.

Sugar you are absolutely right on that Vitamin water flavor. It rocks my socks! (no sexual innuendo intended) And I don’t know if there is another Comment box for, “Tell me why I’m great”, but you’re definitely some kind of wonderful. I caught you on Youtube, with your Jon Favrou video. (Don’t let my lack of spelling throw you off, I’m a huge fan. Shoot, some of my best friends can’t even say my last name!) I digress, You have a spark! You are like all those movies with Natalie Portman, or Claire Danes. You, like all they’re characters, are an interesting magnet of personality. People are drawn to you and they think your energy is something great for this world. If you, at this time are rolling your eyes, stop. I’m not the first to say it. Nor, I’m sure is it a shock to hear. Deep down Sweetie, you know it too. It’s okay to value your self. Well, now I’ve written too much. Keep auditioning for stuff, cause I think you’ll be great.
