Another Life Goal Achieved

While not a full marathon, it’s enough for me to scratch it off my list. I joined ~15,000 fellow runners in the 3.5 mi Corporate Challenge held in Central Park and surprisingly, I finished in 34 minutes. Not bad (if I do say so myself) considering my only practice leading up to this was 3 sessions on the treadmill the week before the “big” race!

I wonder what I’ll do with the new running sneakers I bought.

Photos pending…

Mama's craving of the day: aloo papri chaat

Papri chaat: 1 hour shopping + 30 minutes prep time = salivatingly scrumpcious snack...although Dada might've spiced it up beyond the whitey-tolerance level.

Mama's craving of the day: Friends

...a big serving of them at the baby shower and the special cannoli cake didn't hurt, either.

Mama's craving of the day: soda

Gingerale mostly.

2 scoops from What's The Scoop, a local ice cream shop.

Davinder, speaking to a very pregnant Lu:

"Whoa! That's a BIG belly."
