Jet Lag is FUN

Hellllo! VIVA LAS VEGAS! I am now blogging from Sin City, which obvi means I’ surrounded by scantily clad cocktail waitresses and performing tigers right now.

Psyche!

I’m home with the parents in L.V. , in some gorgeous sunshine and mid 50 degree weather. But let’s back up, k?

I had a classic NYC farewell dinner Monday night after a great gym sesh before saying sayonara to NYC.

ignore my chipped polish, por favor.

Yup, pizza. Sicilian, to be exact, from L & B Spumoni Gardens.

Figured it would be the only suitable foodie sendoff from this fine city.

I spent 1.5 hours in the security line of JFK yesterday morning, and haaangry. And yes, I do in fact mean one and a half HOURS. Good times. Then they cancelled our flights twice, but just pretend because we all know how airlines love pulling a good joke during the holidays.

landing in vegas, baby.

McCarran Intl Airport in LV.

Eventually I made it home (with all my luggage, thank God), and was jet lagged/starving/out of sorts til I hit my bed that night. Luckily I arose to this caffeinated bfast.

mixed up with pb.

Oatmeal with some coffee mixed in! I used 1/3 cup black coffee and 1/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and it was perfection. Seroiusly. Give it a shot.. I think maybe it even gave me an extra jolt for the morning, despite my plane hangover. Or maybe it’s in my imagination, but either way… I digree- this bowl also had a spoonful of pb, sliced banana, and some blueberries.

Good to be home kids, let me tell ya.

I also got a quick run in at my dad’s gym- just short of 3 miles, plus almost half a mile of walking. :-) I’d have run longer but

a. I was sleepy/not feeling it, and running should be ENJOYABLE when you do it, andddd

b. i had to jet to my haircut appointment!

Why yes, I had an awkward photo shoot in the car. My hair is SHORT. I handed my stylist a photo of Katie Holmes from some mag, and here’s what I ended up with. It’s growing on me.. I’m not sure how sold i am yet, but I have to get used to it. She cut almost 10 inches off! (I’m donating it.)

Oh, and after this I went to one of my fav stores EVER.

Trader Joe’s!!

You didn’t think I meant a clothing store, did you??

And proof I’m in Las Vegas-

Random man in shorts strolling out of TJ’s, the day before Christmas Eve.

And yeah, I was that creepy and paparazzi’d him. ;-)

Okay loverbees- have a great night! I’m off to spend some quality time with my grandma who just arrived, and start baking up some Christmas goodies. I see cookies in my future.
