Brief Life Update

Today I'm just going to do a bit of a life update. Sound good? Great!

It's a been a busy, fun, often rewarding, surprisingly challenging and exhausting week - yes, all mixed into one.  As a result, my blog took a back seat to regular life (I hate when that happens). 

Here are some life updates...

Vegan life has been going well.  I'd say I've 98% adjusted to a meat, dairy and egg free lifestyle. I feel fuller on less food, and more fulfilled because of the higher amounts of life sustaining nutrients I'm ingesting. It's an all around win-win.  Last night, Lizzie and I went to Blossom, a delightful vegan restaurant in Chelsea. SO. GOOD. This food would satisfy both omnivores and vegans.  Tonight we are headed to Quintessence in the East Village for some raw vegan cuisine.  Should be delicious and nutritious!

I haven't been exercising as much this week.  My allergies and I have been duking it out a bit, but I'm happy to say that I'M WINNING!  A great combination of sleep (the best medicine), Yogi Throat Comfort tea, cough drops and Ibuprofen have been working wonders. I'm looking forward to kicking my allergy symptoms and reconnecting my yoga DVDs starting tomorrow. 

New York has been toggling between lovely spring and cool winter temperatures.  I have to say that I've been enjoying both.  There's nothing like a beautiful mid-60s day, but I also appreciate a bit of a chill too. We went bike riding last weekend and it was lovely - in the mid 50s.  I plan to make an investment soon in a moderately (okay, cheaply) priced bike that looks like it's from the 70s. :)

I'm off this weekend and looking forward to some lovely weather, good times and relaxation before another work week. It's Friday!
