I've been a little off my normal eating and workout routine here and there lately, so its time to crack down. Especially since vacation is only about a month away and bathing suit season is even closer! I had a more limited time to workout today than i would have liked, but I decided to just make the best of it. After running the last two days I figured it was time to take a break so I did a swim. I went by distances, not time this go around. Wasn't feeling focused enough to do the time keeping thing. Here's the workout:
Swim Workout #2

3 x 100 Freestyle

1 x 100 Easy freestyle

This kicked by butt. I really need to get in the pool more. That, and I need to strength train. I keep saying it but in the pool today I felt it a lot! Looks like tomorrow starts the strength training mission. For real this time.
For now, I am off for drinks and such with friends. I have been really into whiskey in the last few months. Yes, I drink like a man. Tonight, I gave into that craving and attempted a nice little cocktail... I used whiskey, agave nectar, lime, and seltzer. I really wanted to use lemon and either mint or ginger. But you work with what you have...
The ingredients: yes, that is a jumbo bottle of Johnnie Walker Black. The best part: its my mom's. Like mother, like daughter I guess. |
Can you believe we don;'t have a shaker??? A mason jar worked perfectly and doubled as a glass. Will use this again! |
Served right in the shaker, with seltzer added after a good shake of the ice, whiskey, lime, and agave. |
For dinner with the cocktail I had Pacific Food Thai Sweet Potato soup, served in my new Cali Bowls. I was hoping this would be similar to an amazing Thai-style soup with sweet potatoes I had in the Bahamas. Not even close :( Not recommended!
Now I have to shower super fast and look for something else to eat so that this whiskey doesn't get to me before I even go out...
