Girls Night and Eye Candy

Hi guys! Happy Indian Food Wednesday! Whoโ€™s celebrating??? Weโ€™re heading to Atlanta later today but Iโ€™m going to see if the pilot wants to stop and get Indian to munch on the road ๐Ÿ™‚

Last night, the pilot was working late (again) so I met up with the girls for dinner and drinks at Two Friends. Having a girls night was way more fun that making an omelet and chilling at home ๐Ÿ˜‰

I had a glass of Riesling the size of my face,

and ordered the Ahi Tuna with asparagus for my entree.

We were in the mood for dessert, so we each ordered a dessert and shared ๐Ÿ˜€

I rolled with the tiramisu

and also had bites of the bread pudding (which is foodgasmic) and chocolate mascarpone cheesecake.

We closed the place down! It was lovely ๐Ÿ™‚

Hereโ€™s the plan for today:

-Weights

-Pack (I made a list but just need to get everything together)

-TurboFire (45 EZ today)

-Drop off the puppers

-Beg Best Buy for my computer (they quoted me two weeks and have had it for 17 daysโ€ฆ.)

-Get on the road!

See ya this afternoon <3

    I freakin’ love tiramisu. It is my most favorite dessert! That slice looks heavenly.

  2. Nicole @ Making Good Choices on July 28, 2010 at 9:41 am

    I hope you get your computer back!

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 9:45 am

      ME TOO!

    I have never tried tiramisu, but it looks really good.

  4. Katie on July 28, 2010 at 9:53 am

    Ahhhhhhhhh all the Indian Food is making me hungry!!!!! Yummy! I hope you and the pilot get your indian food in tonight before heading off to Atlanta!

    I feel your stress on the computer, my fiance had his computer at Best Buy to be fixed as well, they told him 2 weeks and then it turned into a month, and then after almost two months, I kid you not, he calls and they tell him, Oh it cant be fixed, so they replaced it with a new computer, was nice they gave him a new laptop, BUT he didnt get his old laptop back and he had things on there he wanted and a cd in his laptop he forgot to take out of his cd drive too, so it was not a good experience, Best Buy really really stinks with their cusomer service!!!!!!

    I hope you get yours back !

  5. Sandra on July 28, 2010 at 10:10 am

    Thanks Gina. Now I’m drooling ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 10:26 am

      you are welcome ๐Ÿ™‚

  6. Holly @ couchpotatoathlete on July 28, 2010 at 10:11 am

    Michelle’s homemade naan is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen! Wow. Good luck with Best Buy — I’ve never had any problems with them and their customer service is usually stellar, so I hope it all works out today. I’m sure they are taking good care of Pinkie and getting her all fixed up.

    I think it is the unwritten rule that you have to get dessert on a girls night dinner!

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 10:25 am

      they just called- pinkie is fixed and ready to be picked up!! wahoo!!!!!

  7. April @ Crazy Fabulous Life on July 28, 2010 at 10:15 am

    Tiramasu is the best! I have never eaten Indian food, but your blog has made me extremely curious. What do you think would be a good Indian dish for a first timer?

  8. Paige (Running Around Normal) on July 28, 2010 at 10:17 am

    oooh, such a tease with that eye candy! lol I’ve been craving Indian food for DAYS now. Oy.
    Have fun on your trip today! So exciting ๐Ÿ™‚

  9. allison @ livingoneday on July 28, 2010 at 10:18 am

    woahhhh i still have YET to jump on the indian band wagon. although i did make thai coconut curry the other night (recipe on my blog). does that count?? hahah

  10. Heather (Heather's Dish) on July 28, 2010 at 10:37 am

    tiramisu? yes please!!!

  11. Kristina on July 28, 2010 at 10:38 am

    Mmm, that tiramisu looks divine…

    have a fun trip! ๐Ÿ™‚

  12. Courtney @ Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life on July 28, 2010 at 10:40 am

    Mmmm, tiramisu is great! Unfortunately, the bakery that made my absolute favorite one of ALL TIME closed down, and I have yet to find a replacement that lives up to the old one.

  13. Shanna @ Shanna LIke Banana on July 28, 2010 at 10:59 am

    That tiramisu is a beauty! I’ve never seen it made in that fashion. Please send me your leftovers asap ๐Ÿ˜‰

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 12:25 pm

      leftovers?? what’s that??

  14. Andrea @ Thin Thighs & Sweet Potato Fries on July 28, 2010 at 10:59 am

    OMG, that naan looks divine! Breads are my weakness, especially ones that look as doughy as that one! ๐Ÿ˜€

    How are you liking Turbo Fire, btw? I had a chance to sample it before it came out, but haven’t yet decided if I want to order it. Would love to get your thoughts!

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 12:22 pm

      i’ve done a few posts about it, but i absolutely love it. so much fun and perfectly challenging ๐Ÿ™‚

  15. Run Sarah on July 28, 2010 at 11:21 am

    Love Indian food Wednesday! Tiramisu = amazing – one of the best desserts ever!

  16. Michelle @ Give Me the Almond Butter on July 28, 2010 at 11:23 am

    I’m oogling over that tiramisu too. Yum! Yay for getting your computer back!

  17. Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine on July 28, 2010 at 11:26 am

    Such an amazing girls’night dinner!! Tiramisu is such a great choice ๐Ÿ™‚ Good luck getting your computer back- if it’s still not ready, you should ask for a discount!

  18. Tracey @ I'm Not Superhuman on July 28, 2010 at 11:28 am

    Eh, tiramisu just doesn’t do it for me. But bread pudding? There’s not even a photo and I’m drooling.

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 12:21 pm

      i should have taken one… it was perfect and the buttery bourbon sauce was ridiculous

  19. The Nutritionist Reviews on July 28, 2010 at 11:30 am

    That tiramisu looks so good! And so does the indian food!

    Also, I have 8 giveaways going on on my blog right now if anyone wants to check em out!

  20. RhodeyGirl on July 28, 2010 at 11:45 am

    Did you ever make any fake tiramisu while on South Beach? I distinctly remember loving a recipe with mascarpone, vanilla, and some chocolate chips!

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 12:20 pm

      no! i have never heard of that recipe but it sounds awesome ๐Ÿ™‚ i used to have the chocolate ricotta pudding every night though (ricotta, cocoa powder and splenda)

  21. Jessica (Fit and Clean) on July 28, 2010 at 12:04 pm

    Best Buy quoted me 10 days and they had it for 15 or 16! At least I was out of town while they had it…or I would have been calling every day! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  22. Lana Wilson on July 28, 2010 at 12:29 pm

    mmmmm!! Happy Indian food Wednesday!! I hope you get your indian food fix with the pilot later today ๐Ÿ™‚

  23. Alycia @ Fit n Fresh on July 28, 2010 at 12:47 pm

    I still don’t know how I feel about the Indian food, but it looks lovely at the very least ๐Ÿ™‚

    Have fun in Orlando!

  24. Danielle (Runs on Green) on July 28, 2010 at 12:48 pm

    I must re-stock my Indian food! After looking at your pics, I’m going through naan withdrawls

  25. Megan @ Healthy Hoggin' on July 28, 2010 at 12:48 pm

    I love tiramisu! And bread pudding is one of my favorites!! I had a “banana bread” bread pudding a couple weeks ago, and it was maybe the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life!

    I love Indian Food, but my husband and I can only eat it about once a month– it does a number on our stomachs! It’s so tasty, though, it’s kinda worth it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Have a fun trip to Atlanta!!

  26. Tina on July 28, 2010 at 12:48 pm

    Have a safe trip!!! I hope you find a way to get your Indian food Wed in.

  27. rori on July 28, 2010 at 12:58 pm

    Gina-did I miss it? did you end up watching “princess bride”? Did you like it?

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 1:01 pm

      yes, i did watch it! LOVED it. ๐Ÿ™‚

  28. Sassy Molassy on July 28, 2010 at 1:14 pm

    Mmm…tiramisu makes me swoon. That reminds me, I should have the manfriend take me out to get some real soon. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  29. christina on July 28, 2010 at 1:14 pm

    haha, you’re making me crave indian food at 9am! I celebrated yesterday myself… ๐Ÿ™‚

  30. Cindy on July 28, 2010 at 1:22 pm

    I hope you’re happy: I just came back from Indian food with a co-worker and declared our own Indian Food Wednesdays. Indian food babies for all!

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 1:24 pm

      whoo hoo!!!

  31. Kathryn on July 28, 2010 at 1:32 pm

    Have a great time in Atlanta..I’ll be there today too but only in the airport ๐Ÿ™‚

    Good luck with the computer…best buy had ours for FOUR months before it was actually fixed (had it like 3-4 weeks at a time, got it back, wouldnt even turn on etc..VERY frustrating!!)

  32. Dorry on July 28, 2010 at 1:42 pm

    This post made me hungry for lunch! It’s 12:42 here in Dallas – perfect timing! I’m so excited for Indian Food Extravaganza Saturday night of HLS!

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 1:47 pm

      me too!!

  33. Averie (LoveVeggiesAndYoga) on July 28, 2010 at 1:59 pm

    Oh girl I hope you have a faboooosh time in Hot ATL. Back in the day when Scott and I lived in NC and SC (Myrtle Beach) we’d go to Atl b/c it was alot more hoppin’ and wonderful than Myrtle Bch and I can tell you some stories about Phipps Plaza and Peachtree everything ๐Ÿ™‚ God I burned up some money there! And drank and partied my arse off all over town…fun memories ๐Ÿ™‚ Hope you have a stellar time!

  34. Alyssa @ Bride To Be Fit on July 28, 2010 at 2:21 pm

    I really want to try Indian food, but I’m semi-intimidated by it! I have no idea what I would order or what is healthy/unhealthy?!?!

  35. Naomi(onefitfoodie) on July 28, 2010 at 2:24 pm

    i want to see HHA just to see how different it is from insanity! The eyecandy never hurts either ๐Ÿ™‚

    holy tiramisu!! thats hugeee and so light and delicious looking ๐Ÿ™‚

  36. Laura (B Foxy Fitness) on July 28, 2010 at 3:30 pm

    That tiramisu looks delectable! Girl, you were busy today! Have a safe trip and live it up in the A-T-L! ๐Ÿ™‚

  37. laura on July 28, 2010 at 3:30 pm

    Wooooooooow! That Tiramisu looks absolutely massive..and delicious too;-)
    Has it really been a whole week since Indian Wednesday! Time is flying! xx

  38. How are you liking the turbo fire? Is it worth getting? I take turbo kickboxing classes at the gym and it would be nice to have a video for at home, but I’m not sure if it’s going to be intense enough?

    • Fitnessista on July 28, 2010 at 3:59 pm

      it’s definitely intense- i LOVE it ๐Ÿ™‚

  39. Ellen@FirednFabulous on July 28, 2010 at 3:46 pm

    Ohh my gosh, your eats look DIVINE. I love Indian Wednesday! I rarely eat it, but there are so many good places in NYCโ€”I need some spice in my life these days!

  40. Allison @ Food For Healing on July 28, 2010 at 5:54 pm

    oh man i could really go for some Naan, i love that stuff

  41. Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin on July 28, 2010 at 6:49 pm

    You poor thing! I could never be separated from my laptop for so long! We’re not good with the whole long distance relationship thing. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Have a good drive to Atlanta!

  42. Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) on July 28, 2010 at 7:57 pm

    Oh my….all that deliciousness!!!! Homemade Naan???? YUM
