Ramen

I loved the Pilates class I took yesterday so much so that I signed up for a basic membership and am going again today for a stretching session! So what does the picture above have to do with Pilates? Well nothing, technically. But since it (the ramen above) was something new to me as well as the Pilates class I thought I'd post about both. After class the hubs and I went out to lunch to try Japanese Ramen and I ordered the Chicken Red ramen, extra spicy! I loved the over all spice and flavor, skipped the spinach since I don't like the wilted texture of it and loved the seasoned egg most of all. It was very filling and I have plenty of leftovers for dinner. What is something new that you've tried as of late?  

  

Pilates

A while back I listened to Shonda Rhime's book, "A Year of Yes". In it, she discusses getting healthy and that the only exercise which sounded appealing to her was Pilates, because you could lay down during it. Well, here goes nothing! I'm taking a free, 30 minute trial class today at a local facility to see if I like it. I have a few friends who swear by it but I fear I won't survive! I would be looking to supplement my current workout routine with this activity versus replacing it, so we'll see how it goes! Fingers crossed and happy February!
