Bring on Bday Week
Hey everyone! Hope youโre having a lovely Sunday ๐
Here are the pics from our little feast last night at Big City Tavern
We got the scallop appetizer with extra grilled apples instead of bacon
The always necessary Shiraz ๐
and we both got the same thing for dinner: seared Salmon with extra veggies instead of rice
It was quite lovely. Next to Indian food baby, salmon food baby is my favorite kinda baby ๐
This morning, we got up pretty early to drop Ash off at the esthetics show.
I munched a persimmon and a nanner on the way:
and took a seriously incredible Bikram class while she was at the show.
Check out the door!
I love it ๐
It was an ahhhhhmazing class. After the lack of structure in my yoga life yesterday, a Bikram class was just what I needed. The teacher was wonderful โand just returned from taking a workshop in Vegas with the speedo-clad Bikram himself- and was extremely kind and thorough while she pushed us to the max. I was a sweaty happy beast when I left ๐
I picked Ashley up and we got on the road back to Valdizzy.
Road trip food:
Brown rice sushi with cado, cuc and carrot
Organic apple:
Weโre just getting into Orlando and are making a quick stop at Milennia Mall (*insert evil laugh*) before picking up Bella and continuing onto V-town.
The pilot is at home waiting for me!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhh I canโt wait to see him ๐
Countdown to birthday/quarter-life crisis: 4 days!!!!!
Enjoy the rest of your day <3
xoxo,

The scallop and the salmon both look delish! ๐
glad you had a great workout and yay for seeing the pilot tonight!!
Hey Gina, I never comment your posts but I always read and love them. I just was wondering where you did yoga? I live in S. Florida and really want to try bikram yoga but I’m not sure where in the area there is a studio. If you mentioned it in the earlier post sorry I missed it!
hey dianette ๐ thanks so much for saying hi ๐
i took bikram at bikram yoga ft lauderdale on andrews.. it was amazing!
Yay for getting to see the Pilot!!! ๐
The salmon dish looks AMAZING! I neeed that for dinner right now. Yay for your pilot being home! ๐
Yummy, I love the sushi and brown rice.
big city tavern! on las olas! love. johnny v’s is also incredible, it’s pretty close to big city tavern.
oh how i miss my hometown<3
Seems like you had a great trip here in Ft Laud! Where did you take the “Torture Chamber” Bikram class? Hurry home safely to pilot!!!
hey holly,
i had a blasty in ft laud! i took bikram at bikram yoga ft lauderdale (on andews, close to the convention center) and it was seriously amazing
awesome! I’ll have to give that place a try!!! thx
ahhhh I have been to that restaurant multiple times. You were so close to me wish there could have been a meet up or something, maybe next time. I’m a total stalker so would love to meet you and it’s my bday week too! (Friday)
we TOTALLY should have done a meet up ๐ hopefully i’ll be back soon- i loved it there so much!
happy early birthday <3
Grilled Apple to go with Scallop? what a great combination! I’ll try this sides ๐
I love finding brown rice sushi!!
I definitely had a salmon baby today ๐ I agree, it is the best kind!
haha exchanging apples for bacon!!! so GENIUS! i love it!!
SUSHI AND BIKRAM! perfect day!
i love youuuu
yay for seeing the pilot ASAP!!!!
Oh my gosh, that sign on the Bikram door is INTENSE!
I’m so bummed I’m not back home in Vegas yet bc I was seriously considering doing that teacher training that’s happening down there now!
Great dinner! Enjoy your time with the pilot and happy almost birthday!
Woohoo November birthdays! Mine’s November 18. I’m going to be old…22. In case I miss the exact day, happy early b-day! Hell, happy birthday erryday this week!
Ahh! Yay for seeing the pilot! Hmmm what’s he getting you for the bday, I wonder… ;)xoxo
Your meal out looks great! Especially that salmon with the veggies – yum.
Happy last few days in your early 20’s! ๐
Hooray for BDAY week! I’ll be counting, too.
The fact that the door says “torture chamber” just made me burst out laughing. I love it! Where can I get me one of those? I love that you made your own hot yoga room, by the way. That is such a great idea! I’m feeling more and more confident lately that I should be able to get through and at least attend a real yoga class — perhaps bikram will be the next step after that. It’s such a great feeling…I’m on the yoga buzz!
HURRAY FOR THE PILOT BEING HOME!! What a perfect start to the birthday/quarter life crisis week. Although if you ask me, you are 25, fit and FABULOUS ๐
Your website is great! I love tuning in everyday and getting inspired.
By the way – don’t worry about the quarter century thing, I reckon 25 was a great age. Old enough to have some sense, young enough to ignore it! ๐ I’m counting down the days till I turn 30! I’ve never been so terrified or freaked out about anything in my life!
that’s an EXCELLENT way of thinking of it ๐
you’ll be thirty, flirty and thriving ๐
