CHUNKYcheeeeesecake

Zapping the flab down at Zumba in the morning we kicked of our Saturday bouncing and gliding to the energetic music from the amazingly fun and feisty Zumba class. Once ready the three of us rejuvenated, showered and all headed for a planned day at the Prudential centre!  http://www.prudentialcenter.com/ 
Sadly once we arrived at the tower to see a panoramic sky-high view of Boston, we were turned away by an emotionless sheet of white paper reading,
‘Closed, booked for Private Function’
And so we then decided to return another day as we had no choice and headed for the Cheesecake Factory even earlier! (no complaints)
It was what I was craving and more.  To my misconception, when I first heard of this amazing place I assumed it was a factory that made and sold cheesecake, however it is actually a restaurant selling grand foods along with specialising in cheesecake.  http://www.thecheesecakefactory.com/
The creamy cheesecakes were amazingly appetising, slightly to much to enjoy so we had to take doggy bags with us home. 

‘Shear madness’ was our next Saturday scheduled stop in the theatre district.  We continued the food theme on our way and made a stop into Sugary Heaven, marvelling at their selection of Americandy which was quite impressive.

We left surely having worked our abs from an outrageously funny show.  The theme of the act is shear madness indeed, and being able to interact and guess the killer throughout really gets you involved and one with the stage!  Thanks to the NU student affairs we got the tickets for free and attended the show as a large friendly pack of huskies.  On the way home we stopped in to watch some of the play in the Boston Common Park.

DELICIOUS DUNKIN

So- yesterday.. . I am rather proud of the tan im glowing today which is nice as it helps to make me blend in more rather than having my pale pale Scottish white arms..
Molly and myself went shopping for our weekly food etc and on stop we visited our first 'thrift store'.  I have always wanted to go to one as on the american fashion websites, a lot of the vintage looks gather their inventories from these stores as its 2nd hand and CHEAP.  which is pretty good.  I didn't see anything which I liked to improve and so left with nothing. 
From there we went to DUNKIN'DONUTS for lunch.  MY first time in the well known American  coffee retailer, I think it matched up to Costa or maybe a Greggs back home as there is one in every street, and it sells food bites as well!
It was DELICIOUS.  I did have have fun with the donuts.. .. the strawberry donut design was far too much like the Simpsons donuts, I just wanted a police cop to walk in and buy some to top off my dunkin experience.

To top off our weekend we baked some cookies in the apartment, baking them just rightly cooked with the chips still melting in the middle.  I was glad I went for a run after shopping today, as I would be getting majorly fat with all these sweet tasties around me here.

We enjoyed the cookies so much I think we will make more tonight.. .. as it is Adam and Heathers last night in America since they have finished placement and are returning to Scotland to complete there 4th year Honours degree - also to celebrate Mollys first day in her placement within NU Global at Northeastern University!! .. ..
