You Should Be Proud

  I did it. I finally did it, I went to Target! It was so beautiful, I wanted to run to the staff and hug them and tell them that I missed them, but then I would have probably gotten kicked out so I restrained myself and went shopping quietly. I bought a new dress (it's reversible...oooh...) and a cardigan (ahh...) and a Wii Active (finally!).

  So guess what I did when I got home? Oh, you know, just worked out and burned about 200 calories. Let me tell you, my wii trainer is not very nice and she tells me to "keep workin' it!" so she didn't make the cut and I switched to the guy trainer for my next workout. Maybe he'll be cooler. By the way, please feel free to clap and cheer for me at anytime because I started a workout diary where I keep track of any exercise that I do (outside of wii world) as well as my calorie intake.  And since the workout will be at home, I can't use weather as an excuse...I think.

  Speaking of calorie intake, I went to Los Chaparros on Beretania St. for dinner today. In case you were wondering, it's Mexican food and as much as I swear by Azteca in Kaimuki, I might have converted to a "Chaparrosita" (I make up my own words). I had their Chille Relleno and although I wasn't much of a pepper fan, I can safely say that this is one pepper dish that I will never grow tired of, ever. Oh, and their strawberry margarita = heaven in a tall sugar-rimmed glass with lime. I'm not kidding.  And their other hevenly dish is the dessert: Banana Flautas..basically a banana spring roll with cinnamon, sugar and caramel all over everything and then you eat it with ice cream and then you cry (mainly because you're so full at this point but you just want to keep eating till it's all gone). It's that good.

  What can I say, it's a Thursday and the best way to end the week is by chubbin' it,  go shopping and then workout for the first time in 3 weeks. Sweet.
