Overdoses in Buenos Aires! ^_^

hello people! Did you miss me? I am in Buenos Aires!!! Happy and Stuffed!! ^_^ hahahha…..

First, I’d like to share my first experience traveling in Business Class with you guys. How that happened??? Did I win a lottery? NO! But I waited 2 hours to check in on Friday and had to run a mini race to reach to the bording gate while they were calling my name for last minute boarding. I was soooo afraid of not be able to catch my flight… fortunately that didn’t happen and they upgraded me because it was a full flight!!! ^____^ How lucky I was!!!! Travelling in Business is a whole new world!!! I SLEPT on flight! First time since my adulthood!!! And all the meals came in plates instead of plastic containers! Sometimes money really can make you happy! 🙂

Star welcomed me with a gigantic bundle of roses and lilies. How lovely~~~ And then we went to one of our favorite restaurant Agraz (Hotel Cesar Park) for lunch to celebrate the 8 years anniversary! Yeah~~~ We met each other 8 years ago!!! That’s more than 1/3 of my life and I’m so happy to be able to spend more years to come with him!!!

a must in any restaurant: fresh baked bread

The appetizer: green salads with goat cheese burger

The entree: grilled fish over sauteed veggies. Delish~

Star’s entree: smoked ribs with sweet potato fries

Dessert: chocolate mousse covered by chocolate!

Candies for the coffee

Saturday night we went to a party called Siglo +1. It’s a birthday party for Rosa’s (Star’s client’s mom) 101 years old. 350 guests in the most luxury hotel in Buenos Aires, with great food, a lot of shows and souvenirs. Our table

An entree size appetizer

Entree was lamb steak that was delicious, but I forgot to take pic of it. We didn’t stay until the dessert, so no dessert pic! But I did have dessert at home, which was more CHOCOLATES!!!

Sunday lunch was Argentinian Asado at home of a friend.

A “map”

guacamole and tapenade spread

choripan! A classic.

A salad to be accompanied to the main dish: STEAK

Asado

Second plate: more steak and salad

A note about the meat! You guys know that I don’t usually eat red meat. But when I come to Argentina, I do, because they’re free ranch and usually free of hormones and its fat content is lower than standard meat.

Dessert was chocolate mousse over pineapple! AMAZING

Petit fours for the coffee. I had a square of brownies! ^_^

That’s my first overdose of steak and sweets! I enjoyed each bite! No regrets, no guilts, pure pleasure! 🙂

Vacation is about treats and indulgence, but too much of them is not healthy either. Krista talked about this and she already set things to do to keep in track during vacation. I don’t know what will be my vacation “routine”, but I already sign up at the gym and plan to buy a blender to make green monsters for breakfast! That way I can make sure to have my daily intake of veggies/fruits! Sounds like a plan, right?

Let me end with a fun pic

Can you tell how happy I am?

I’m taking this week off, so more overdoses will come son! ^_^

Question: How do you keep on track the healthy lifestyle during vacation?
