So, on Saturday, we ventured over to the Red Mesa Cantina <\/a>.<\/p>\n

Waiting anxiously for food.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

\nI actually WAS anxious because I ordered a tofu taco! I have never tried tofu, so I was scared that I might not like it. I’m big on textures.
\nI got two of the tofu tacos, which are “Tamarind marinated tofu, rajas, pineapple, jalapenos, jack cheese”<\/span>
\nI opted not to get the cheese since I had a red bean quesadilla at home earlier in the day. On the side, I had my favorite: yuca fries~<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Verdict? Not bad! Mirza said it was like mozzarella cheese! I also found it quite filling, but it may have been the yuca fries with chipotle ketchup…;)<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>
\nMirza ordered the Alambres with beef. He’s been eating all vegetarian lately with me, so I think he felt the need for meat lol.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span>
\nWe somehow managed to save room for dessert (not really, we forced it) because we LOVE their banana split. From their website: “Chipotle chocolate and dulce de leche gelatos in a crisp sugar & cinnamon sopapilla with fresh bananas, strawberries, pineapple topped with cajeta caramel, mexican chocolate sauce and whipped cream”<\/span><\/span>
\nWords cannot describe.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

<\/a>
\n
\n<\/span>
\nWe hated it, obviously:<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span>
\nEarlier in the day while Mirza was teaching guitar, I picked up my CSA share.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>
\nAnd Sunday was a lazy rainy day. I love the rain when you have no place to go or be!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
Max liked it, too:<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

<\/a>
\n I got in a great upper body work out from my apartment’s gym. I’ve been using it a lot more since they added free-weights and got new machines. I actually might not renew my membership to Shape<\/a>‘s because I have the gym here, my bike, the pools, and I honestly have not been using the classes there much anymore.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>
\nAfter my work out, I had big plans to try the infamous <\/span><\/span>Cherry Chocolate Bomb Shake!<\/a> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Everything went into the Vitamix and out came a delicious concoction. I was mostly excited to try out my new Glass Dharma straws<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/span>
\nI love these glass straws! They actually make drinking smoothies easier and more enjoyable! <\/span><\/span><\/span>
\nI will definitely be ordering more. I want some with the colorful decorative dots. I highly recommend these if you love smoothies as much as me!<\/span><\/span><\/span>
\nAs for the Cherry Chocolate Bomb Shake? Amazing! So chocolatey and rich. Lots of protein, too!<\/span><\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>
\n—<\/span><\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span><\/span>
\nIn other news, as some of you may or may not know, I was lucky enough to win a scholarship from my hospital for an all-expense paid trip to <\/span>NTI and Critical Care Exposition<\/span><\/a>, which is in Washington, DC this year. I am so thrilled to go, and will be staying at the GRAND HYATT HOTEL!! Everything has been paid for by the hospital. All free to me. aaah.<\/span><\/span><\/span>
\nSince everything is FREE, including flight, it just made sense to buy a ticket for Mirza to come along, too! His birthday is the following week, so this is kind of a birthday gift to him. We’ve been together for 7 years, and we have never been anywhere on vacation together, besides family outings, so touring the capital and staying in a beautiful hotel for free feels like the perfect getaway!<\/span><\/span>
