Getting out of Dodge

posted by unsinkablemoo

I’m leaving New York in two weeks and I don’t know when I’ll be back.  I’m making a list of things I must do before I leave.

1. Pizza

2. Get a bagel with lox and an americano at Grounded on Jane St

3. Walk across the Brooklyn Bridge

4. Spend some time in Central Park, either at the fountain or around the reservoir

5. Go see some live music on the LES

6. Get a portabello mushroom burger at the Shake Shack

7. Take some great yoga classes

8. Spend some time in Brooklyn

9. Buy fruits and veggies at the farmer’s market

Can you help me complete my list?  Send me some suggestions!

Maybe it was a bout of cabin fever or perhaps those brief moments in NYC last week when it was almost 60 degrees out that really got me itching for tank-wearing, flip-floppin’ weather!  So I’ve decided to kick my asana into high gear:

1. Fight Arm Flab – 4 ways to asana your way  jiggle-free arms
2. Firm The Thighs – soar like an eagle
3. Speed  Your Metabolism – the stimulating shoulderstand
4. Engage The Core – get it straight from the queen of core herself
5. Always Mulah Bundha – remind yourself with an awesome tank

Cucumber – The New Lime

posted by freebean

My current obsession – cucumber infused water!  It is so refreshing and it just takes a few slices to flavor a whole pitcher!  I like to keep mine chilled in the fridge and then add a little garnish and a fancy glass to add some class.

This thirst-quenching infusion also works great with club soda (and vodka)!

And the best part?  I get my organic cucumbers delivered! (You can too if you are in NYC!)
