If not eaten with caution, it’s easy to clock up over 1000 calories worth of Mexican food. Think guacamole, sour cream, grated cheese, tortilla chips, tequilla ETC! Fret not, it’s really easy to recreate a yummy Mexican meal at home which is super healthy and quick: Sauté some onions in a pan until browned Add in …
When it comes to food, I am pretty open-minded in terms of trying new things. If I were to reject an offer, it would probably because a) the dish is either ridiculously deep-fried or b) contains beef or cilantro (coriander). I don’t know where my distaste for cilantro stems from, but the mere smell of …
I love this sign in my gym: “You have a private wealth manager to manage your wealth, why not have a personal trainer to manage your health?” As I’ve admitted in the past, my idea of weight training is quite pathetic. As it bores me to no end, I tend to call it a day …
Days like today convince me that Sundays were created for one reason only: R&R i.e. a chance to recharge our batteries.

Your time starts now”. Give me a break! Although every now and then, I receive …
Yesterday Morning’s Plan of Action: wake up (always a promising start ;)) –> breakfast–> gym. What can I say, plans were made to be broken. Chuck Bass and the rest of the Upper East-Siders kinda took precedence over the gym. After missing my scheduled workout, it was so tempting to cancel it completely. Not tempting …
For those who aren’t familiar much with Spanish, that translates to “Lazy girl recipe for Mexican food.” I wish I could write this whole post in Spanish but that would just be embarrassing. During university, I completed a Beginners’ Spanish module but I’ll let you in on a little secret: the main thing I got …
