Sinful but what the hell.........

The craving was too intense.  I simply had to go get myself cupcakes today.  After finishing Pilates at the gym, I drove all the way to Uptown to a little cafe called Wondermilk.  Heard about this place years ago and had always wanted to try their cupcakes. 

As soon as I entered the place, I was a little disappointed that their so called Maxi Cupcakes are kinda small.  Price is a little steep as well for that size at RM4.50 per piece.  I got myself a box of 4 for RM17.00...a savings of a miserable RM1...yeah!

I decided to get myself these......



Oh My Choc - This one caught my eye immediately!

Very Very Very Chocolate

Rocky Road - with gooey marshmallows on top.

Foxy Red Velvet - Heard about red velvet quite a bit before and decided to try this flavor.



Downing cupcakes with a glass of cold milk...yummy....a satisfying tea break. I must say though...the cupcakes were a little too sweet for my likings.  I am actually going against my "eat clean, eat healthy" regime but then again,  it's not like I'm eating these every day.  It will be awhile till I have my next cupcake.  

New Trail running shoes

How do you like my new shoes?  Cool huh?

Fell in love with this 3 weeks ago.  Was undecided then if I should waste money getting this.  Told myself that if they are still available on my birthday, I will get them...my own birthday gift, so to speak. 

This is Adidas Kanadia TR3, a trail running shoes.  Priced at RM229, I thought it was pretty reasonable.  It was also available in pink, though priced differently (RM260) cos the pinks are of newer model.

I love this color. It's officially called Phantom color. I like to think of it as purple but I think it's more of magenta-ish. So cool and I gotta admit, quite an attention getter.  I was pretty bored with the whites and greys of my previous sneakers.  One thing in common though...all my gym shoes have some hues of pink and magenta. 

Check out the outsoles. The mud shedding outsoles have awesome grip for off-roads.  The shoes are light and have good cushioning. They are comfortable too.  Had to get a 1/2 size bigger than normal feet size though.  This shoes would have come in handy for my mountain climbing trip.....though I'm not sure I would want them to get dirty this fast....ahaks. For now, this shall remain strictly for gym.

Stamina improvement

The focus for this next 2 weeks at the gym is going to be all about cardio.

Did Combat yesterday and there was no panting and being out of breath on my part. Sounded too good to be true so I did another round of Combat today.  Usually I get tired half way into the class, as unbelievable as it sounds. Surprisingly this time it was all good, aside from a few minutes of side stitches.  No sweat, nothing that I cannot handle.

I guess all those rounds of hikings do pay off.  Here I was being worried about my stamina level and I think I can now feel at ease.   Woohoo....

2 more cardio classes, 1 strength training, 3 pilates classes (it helps to tighten the core when going steep uphill) and 3 rounds of hikings...and I think I should be all set for the big mountain.  Yup...
