Good Eats in Vegas!!!

Just the other day my beau & decided to go and manga after much pavement pounding... an appetite had definitely worked up...

We headed out to the local spots cruising for some good eats!

We came across Enzo's Pizzeria (it's off of Eastern) The owner is from Sicily with an accent marred by Long Island (nice guy). Now, keep in mind - I am a New Yorker and it is pretty hard to please me with pizza... Since I have been here in Vegas - it has not been easy finding a place that serves pizza NY style... So, in we go and walk into this lovely place - it has two ends on it and a bar separating either side, an upstairs where you can have a private party and just outside you have the patio where you can sit and savor their delectable Gelato under the warm Vegas air! Yumm!

We decided on pasta as it was Tuesday, 'Pasta Night' ($12.95 for any pasta style w a House salad and a Cannoli to sweeten the palate!) Wow! It was good - I opted for the Angel Hair Marinara Mozzarella! Great Choice! I savored it with some Pinot Noir and boy was I satisfied... my beau had the Fettuccine w meat sauce - also, a great choice! I highly recommend stopping by there on a Tuesday or any other day... Next time we go for pizza and their Gelato - we skipped it this time - did not want to add too much to the waistline!

Discipline is Getting What You Want...

So... I have been back at the gym this past week sweating it out! It feels Good! Getting back to basics and having some 'Me' time is so important to my health and my family's... let's not forget it affects those around me as well... lol ~~~ I am much better equipped when I take some time for me...

As I looked around yesterday - it was very evident that Spring/Summer is here... the gym was filled to capacity... it is amazing how busy our gyms are in Las Vegas and people who do not live here think that we are an 'unhealthy' city... it might be because of all the buffets... there is life beyond the strip, people!

Anyways... I am back on track looking forward to seeing the definition quickly emerge... I know there are strong abs under this beautiful mass dying to shine... :)

I would be interested to see who is on this same journey with me...

I read today that US funding for walking/bicycling is just as important as transportation (cars)... hmmm... I think that speaks volumes to our society...

Why Has Friday Not Arrived Yet?

Geez...

Can it come any sooner?

I am excited for Friday, yes, I am! This weekend promises to be filled with fun! My lovely bf is taking me away somewhere... I am like a little kid on Christmas... I am filled with all these crazy emotions (fear (because I did not plan this), wonder, excitement, butterflies in my stomach, anxiousness... too many to name)... He has not given me one clue - all he asks is if I am ready to be fun, sexy, and free? huh??? So, I say, 'Yes, OK!!! I am ready!' Butterflies... again! Gym, here I come and all body parts better pay attention and firm up... on the double!

So, again I ask can Friday make it here any sooner...

to be continued...
