Pinchos Factory

I enjoy to have my full blown cheat meal once a week. Going steady on sticking to healthier eating habits, but know I still have work that needs to be done. I went with one of my best friends, Laura to grab a bite to eat and catch up.

We went and visited Pinchos Factory, I loved this place as soon as I walked in. The total vibes were giving me eco-friendly and homey. The seating is pretty well spaced out which helps if you go to eat alone, or 6 other people. The best service we had was from a young woman named Brooklynn. She was so amicable, respectful and attentive. I noticed her as she attended to other customers and it was the same for everyone. Loved the energy she gave us, wish her nothing but love and light. They have a selection of wines and beers to enjoy with your meals. Their meat is 100% humanely raised, anti-biotic and hormone free too. 

Laura grabbed a rice and chicken bowl, chipotle style. I am a big baby for anything spicy, so I just took her word on it being hot. She had rice, chicken, jalapeno, pico de gallo, homemade chipotle mayo and she got a side of cilantro sauce. She said that the side of sauce helped subside the intense spices. It was a great portion size as well, she felt full, but not bloated. If you like you food with a kick, this may be it. $8-$9

I of course, grabbed something a little out of the ordinary. Mine was called a toston burger. They use tostones which are fried plantains, as buns. Inside it came with jack cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and their homemade cilantro sauce. The first bite was filled with great flavors. Tasted like something that we should all have at our barbecues. I also grabbed a side of sweet potato tots, with a kick ass apple butter dip. $8.49 $4.49 All their burgers are cooked at medium well, my favorite. I was fond of them being 100% fresh and natural. Also they won the 2015 Burger Bash Champion. If you're winning awards, then it definitely has to account for something.

Overall this is a great place to enjoy with family, some takeout or even a solo date. They have 7 locations and seem to continue to be growing. I can not wait to hear the feedback you guys have for this place. Hope to see some pictures of your tasty meals. Thank you all for the ongoing support you give me. Excuse my absence last week. Been hectic with graduation around the corner. Remember to always Love and allow to be loved. Xoxo

Look Who's Fit

Hey everyone, I have been on this healthier journey for a few months now. I workout at least 5 times a week, with a 1-2 mile runs each workout. Sometimes all I actually do is run. I am always looking how to switch up my workout as I have shown you all before. I decided to head back to my trainer Bert, you will too.

I met Bert a few years ago. Started as a trainer, and evolved into a friend. He has always been extremely motivational, professional, and respectful. He graduated with a B.A in sports and exercise science. He does training for both youth and adults. Works on weight loss, muscle gain, even trains athletes too. You tell him exactly what body type you are aiming for, and he will get you there. He has his own brand "Look Who's Fit" with lots of merchandise too. You will wear it proudly out and about, great quality and message. Bert always pushes you extra just when you think you are going to cave in. He always wants it badly for you, but you have to want it just as bad to see the true results.

It is always fun to head to his Saturday boot camps at Blue Jacket Park. The space is huge, and refreshing. These workouts are total judge free zones, everyone is amicable and welcoming. This past Saturday I began with a nice half a mile jog around the park. Went into cardio drills as soon as I went in. He incorporates a couple of different sports too. I did a little soccer and even some football. The drills are meant to work your full body out. The weather is getting very cool, so that helps with the sweat and cooling down process. Bert always has a full cooler of chilled water waiting as a reward. He even plays music outside to get us nice and hype. This awesome boot camp is only $10. You all know I am a total budget Betty. This is the place to be at on weekends for a great price, and even better results. He even has a partner there to assist him. Rafael, his partner also speaks Spanish for those wanting to bring bilingual friends out.

Bert does not stop there he also does private training. I will have all his information down below. He will be able to give you a little more 1 on 1 time. This may be a little pricey for some, but for others its the perfect balance. If you do not know how to workout in the gym, or what to eat, Bert will guide you. Thing is you will have to pay it now to be healthier, or pay it later in life if you end up in bad health. He will teach you the right way to use different machines and even your own body weight. He also does meal preps for his clients, or meal plans if you want to cook it yourself. He is always going over and beyond to make you feel better about not only your body, but the inside too. 

I want to thank Bert for always welcoming me back into his workouts with open arms. To see him continue to evolve to this awesome trainer is amazing. You will not regret going to him. If you have followed me on social media for a few years, you have seen me workout with him before. Best shape I was in before is all thanks to this man, and the pushing he did. Thank you all for continuing to support me in everything. You all are the real MVPs! All feedback is always welcomed please. Remember to always Love and allow to be loved. Xo PS: I will have a video up on my IG this week, of my workout. @W3ndy1321

Batter Up

I have posted a couple of ways to stay active, save money, and still have a great time. This time around I went to the batting cages. Being that I am Dominican, I figured I have to be able to hit the ball at least one good time. And worse comes to worse, I still get a huge laugh, and full blown arm and back workout out of it.

I went into these batting cages by where I live (information at the bottom) recently. They offer golf there too. They actually have discounts for veterans, law enforcement, and fire fighters. I am not much of a golfer, but I still grabbed some information on it. The people who can get discounts on the balls, the small basket is 50 cents off, medium is one dollar, and the big one is two dollars off. 

I have a picture of the regular prices below. You go to this place with $6-$10, and the whole family can have a great time. I go for a mini workout. After a while I start to think I am really a baseball player. They have different types of levels of speed, as well as softball and baseball options on the balls and pitches. This is always fun to me because I like to switch up my workouts and have a good time doing so. Great laughs with my amazing friend Linda, who snapped some flicks of me. She actually told me "you're actually not that bad" which is dope from her, since she is so athletic. But like everything else, practice makes perfect so I will be heading back soon.

If you all need any questions answered, please do not hesitate. Either contact me through the comments, or hit my 'contact" tab to find the easiest way for you to get a hold of me. I want to fill my new followers into why I write my blog. I want to get people out of their house, and into fun food and activities that are pocket friendly. I hope to make new memories that people will cherish, and allow to build happiness in their souls. Thank you all for the endless support towards what I do. Remember to always Love and allow to be loved. Xoxo
