Brand I love: Bordeaux Los angeles

So I'm doing some spring cleaning today, I have been trying to become a minimalist but it turns out just I actually love my things. But I do have a tendency to hold on to things that no longer fit just for memories sake or to things that have been loved so much that they are in disrepair.


One such item is from Bordeaux los angeles. I loved the color, the softness, and the shape. But it has holes in back so I know I should let it go. But instead I'm turning it into a dog walking item for now. By the end of summer, maybe I'll be ready to part with it.

why is it so hard to figure out which of Gilt groupe's posted products are in house brands. Who is Alex + Alex? What about Moncollet? It's no big deal. We just like knowing where things come from.

Tri-again

So last week was not a good training week. I went out of town for work so I only got in one swim workout. We'll try again this week I guess. The race I wanted to do is cancelled anyway, so I am not racing until the end of August. I'm excited to restart the training program.

Triathlon Day 2

I probably shouldn't have done my running yesterday barefoot. I was feeling it in my shins and ankles today. Every step felt like a painful strike on concrete.

The training for today was a 5 mile bike ride. The weather was gorgeous, and the ride was pleasant except for the bugs that flew at me like darts. I even had one die in my eye. I definitely like the riding better than the running.

Not sure what I'll do tomorrow for the swim. We still haven't joined a gym.

Triathlon Training Day 1

So Today was the first day of my sprint marathon training. Of course it was also a cold rainy Chicago day, so my first training run was indoors in my living room with the help of wii fit. I look forward to the adventure and I hope blogging will help keep me on track. So here is what this week looks like.

Mon OFF
Tue Run 15 mins
Wed Bike 5 miles
Thurs Swim 200 yards

Dining Around the World: Bolat

So we renewed our quest to eat from more countries around the world and headed to this Pan-African spot in Lakeview. I had the Egusi with fufu and meat pies. He took the Jollof Rice with goat. Both were had just the right amount of spice for me. A bit hot for him. I can't say that Fufu is my favorite new food but it does make for a good filler. The drinks were bang on delicious. Apparently they make their own hibiscus syrup which is great with their beer or as I had it in a Hibiscus mojito.

What country should we try next?
