Day 6: Dhoonya Basics

Mondays are rough! It's always hard to get back to work after a wonderful weekend. I wasn't feeling quite right today, so I was only able to eat 1/2 of an instant oatmeal packet from Whole Foods. I skipped lunch because I really had no appetite. After work I felt like my blood sugar was crashing, but I still didn't have an appetite. The boyfriend drove me to Smoothie King to grab a small Caribbean Way smoothie before my Dhoonya Basics class at Saffron Dance. I was able to have a few sips before class started.


I don't know how I feel about Smoothie King's motto, "Chewing is over-rated." It's a little scary if you ask me. I rarely drink smoothies, but the only thing that sounded appetizing was fruit and this seemed like a good, quick, portable option.

Class was great! The dance was incredibly difficult and physically exhausting to perform. If I work on it for a little bit maybe I'll post the dance on here. For now here is the song.


Wow, what a great song! I'm really getting into this Bollywood music.

After class I finally worked up an appetite! The BF made me a great kale salad with my favorite lemon garlic salad dressing made locally by a woman in Maryland and sold at our Whole Foods in Clarendon. I also had 3 small red fingerling potatoes with olive oil and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. I was also able to finish about half of my smoothie from earlier. Dinner ended up being a victory: fruits, vegetables, some healthy fats and delicious cheese! Just what I needed after an intense dance class.
