Yesterday’s workout was Turbo Jam CP2 - so much fun!! I really pushed my heartrate to my max. I almost felt like I didn’t get enough of a cooldown in since I had a friend coming to dinner. I don’t think I can have dinner with people who like to eat early dinners unless I get a shorter workout in(this was 45 mins) or skip working out altogether orrrr cook the day earlier! Why didn’t I think of that last one before! That would work for a lot of things like stews and soups which actually taste better the next day.
In other news, I forgot to tell you guys that I got a new DVD player and it is magnificent!! Not one freeze in the TJ DVD and I KNOW this DVD has a glitch in the cooldown. I’m so happy. 
Food was decent - last night’s dinner was salmon with a mustard and dill glaze - so yummy and quick!!! Takes about 15-20 mins - let me know if you want the recipe. 
I got my Dance the Chakras DVD from Amazon recently(it was on sale!) so I’ll be doing that one today.
Yes Y4C, that IS Thailand. 
Looks so peaceful.

Soups and stews are wonderful because you can make a big pot on the weekend and have it on hand for dinners and lunches for days and days. And yes, it gets better when it sits for a while. Yummmm.
Dance the chakras? Crazy. What is that like? I have never heard of that before. Sounds like you had a productive workout yesterday, though! Keep up the good work.
I live on soups in the winter. And I might try the cold ones for the summer because I love them so much.
You’re braver than I am - I don’t do any social dinners during the week at all. I only see friends Friday and Sat nights, Sunday brunch or lunch. I have work dinners from time to time, and sometimes I book lunch dates w friends during the week, but the evening stuff wears me out and so I went cold turkey 2 years ago and was much happier. Part of it is being here in France - dinner is always a huge affair and ending before 11:30 is almost unheard of, and I just need more sleep than that…
