New York News #1:
Do you like Bethenny Frankel? She’s going on tour to publicize her new book, The Skinnygirl Dish (“so much more than a cookbook”) next month. She’s coming to the Columbus Circle Borders on January 6th (a Wednesday) at 7pm. I plan on going… let me know if you want to go together.
New York News #2:
My new friend Ann (my coworker’s girlfriend) alerted me to this Warrior Challenge sponsored by Sati Life and Patricia Moreno. If you apply and are accepted you get a month-long pass to Equinox gyms (a $180 value) so that you can take intenSati classes. You just have to commit to doing 3 classes per week for a month and attending the kickoff class (January 10th) and finale class (February 7th). intenSati is a high-energy cardio workout class created by Patricia Moreno. I applied last night.
Non-New York tipoff:
Do you have Netflix? Do you want a good workout recommendation? This morning I did a 45 minute dancey/cardio workout called “Dance Off the Inches: Calorie Blasting” that was FREE with my subscription. Netflix offers a lot of free streaming videos (I’m currently blowing through the first season of Dead Like Me) and I love the workout videos. This was my first sweaty workout in a while and I had so much fun doing it. I missed real exercise! I do enjoy my relaxed routine now (20 minutes of yoga? that’s all I need each day!) but sometimes I just crave a good workout.
I’m heading off to Miami tomorrow afternoon (to join Bobby, who’s already down there with his family), so expect another post soon – I’ll have lots of writing time in the airport. I have some great posts lined up including a recap of a Christmukkah party with friends (think latkes, homemade applesauce, and eggnog) and a crazy little announcement of something I’m doing next week with Dori.
Happy Tuesday! Almost Christmas!
Have a great time in Miami! At least you ge to get some warmth and not just slush on the road. 🙂
Safe travels to you~have a great time.
I would love to join you some NYC events. Hopefully, someday.
You know I like it when you recommend workouts, but I don’t have a Netflix description. 🙁 However, I have been thinking about signing up for a dance class next month. I’ve just been wanting to dance lately…I think it was seeing the Michael Jackson movie that did it.
Safe travels to Miami Maggie!
Netflix SUBSCRIPTION 😉
It all sounds great! Sadly, I won’t be in NY till the 26th of Jan. Boo.
Love, love, loveee Bethenny Frankel! She’s so funny.
I wish I were anywhere NEAR NY…how fun would that be?
I now officially know more folks in NY that here! jk…
love your tips…don’t have netflix or I would so be getting free(well, not free) dvd’s.
happy almost Christmas and safe travels!
That workout dvd sounds interesting!
Happy Hump Day,
Katie

Too much fun! I really need to visit NYC.
Thanks for the Netflix tipoff – I hadn’t even thought to download workout videos!
thank you for the netflix recommendation! have fun in miami!
Bethenny Frankel?! I’d like to punch that woman in the face! lol I got her first book and that was enough for me. It was basically a “how to” guide on anorexia. Sorry, been there and done that. I don’t need someone to tell me to eat 2 bites of everything. But you are coming to the Spring Street Natural meet-up on Jan. 1st, right?
you know if i could make it…i would be right there!
lots of love to you – happy holidays, merry christmas and enjoy sunny miami!!!!
I just heard about the Bethanney Frankel event as well. I would love to join you!
SOOO jealous you’re in a warm climate. We’re in the middle of an ice storm that has already canceled some holiday plans 🙁 However, enjoy your holiday, your great company and some festive treats!
Look forward to your recap.
Merry Christmas!!!!
Ooooh, I can’t wait for Bethenny’s new book! I didn’t even know there was another coming out! Thanks for the scoop 😉
Hope you had a lovely holiday!
