While in Dubai… I had to try the Shake Shack in Emirates Mall. I know it is opening soon at the Avenues which is to me inconvenient since I don't go to the Avenues unless I had to. I was held up at one of the shops and my sister went ahead and ordered for us. The place was very crowded and there was a long line. They gave her a beeper, so they can call her when the order is ready. When I arrived the order was ready for pick up. It was sooo delicious!

OoooK! So there were few ups and downs during April. My main focus was to get up every morning and exercise on the treadmill, which I did. I watched what I ate, except I couldn't resist desserts and chocolates. Not to forget about the yummy Gelato new flavors I had to sample. I didn't lose that much weight, nothing significant.
Inspired by Rita Wilsons article which I posted previously, I know I have a slow metabolism. It takes it time until it revs up and start to burn calories and fat. I'm planning this month to make time to exercise at least two times a day, depending on my schedule. We'll see how this will go. Inshallah and I hope beyond that I'll be able to ease a little bit away from sweets and chocolates. It's like following a 12 steps program, except I'm addicted to food and laziness ;p
A lot of the infused gelato flavors found at the store were inspired from our travels and food we tried. One evening in Rome we ordered Panna cotta for dessert and it was surrounded with mixed wild berries sauce and it tasted just sublime.
"You know…" I began and Fahad knew right away what I was going to say.
"Yes, I know…it could be done." He smiles.
As soon as we got back home I googled recipes and started working on it until I reached a satisfactory flavor and very creamy texture. The Panna Cotta with mixed wild berries sauce will be in the store this week, pass by and give it a try and tell me what you think.
What do you think?
PS the gelato doesn't look like this in the store.
I've always been crazy about history and mythology. Even after watching Thor, I went on explaining to Abdulaziz about the Viking Gods and what each one of them represents.
"Bas mama! You're boring me!" He complains! Me! Boring You!!!!
"Ma sewat 3alaih hal movie if your going to give him a mythology lesson after that!" Fahad adds!
Ok! I'm a bore!!! Awareekom!
I just can't wait for the "Immortals" to come out! Lets see if I'm going to answer any questions about details regarding Greek Gods or mythology which I know Fahad will be asking me.
Relativity has debuted the first trailer for the upcoming Immortals 3D film, which is directed by Tarsem Singh (The Cell), and stars Henry Cavill (Superman: Man of Steel, The Tudors) as Theseus, a warrior from Greek mythology, who leads a fight against the imprisoned titans in a story where gods fight alongside mortals. Phaedra (Freida Pinto), an oracle priestess joins Theseus on his quest to prevent the cataclysmic war from erupting.
Along with Cavill and Pinto the film also stars Mickey Rourke as King Hyperion, Luke Evans as Zeus, Kellan Lutz as Poseidon, Stephen Dorff as Stavros, John Hurt as an older version of Zeus, Isabel Lucas as Athena and Daniel Sharman as Ares.
Immortals Synopsis: The brutal and bloodthirsty King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) and his murderous Heraklion army are rampaging across Greece in search of the long lost Bow of Epirus. With the invincible Bow, the king will be able to overthrow the Gods of Olympus and become the undisputed master of his world. With ruthless efficiency, Hyperion and his legions destroy everything in their wake, and it seems nothing will stop the evil king’s mission. As village after village is obliterated, a stonemason named Theseus (Henry Cavill) vows to avenge the death of his mother in one of Hyperion’s raids. When Theseus meets the Sybelline Oracle, Phaedra (Freida Pinto), her disturbing visions of the young man’s future convince her that he is the key to stopping the destruction. With her help, Theseus assembles a small band of followers and embraces his destiny in a final desperate battle for the future of humanity.
