Last night, Meggie, Kat and I went to Alero on U Street, one of our favorite Mexican spots in DC. They have happy hour from 3:30-7 on the weekends, which includes margaritas! I had a few margaritas and then switched to beer. I used to be able to drink margaritas all night long, but now, the sugar is too much for me and I got a bit of a headache.
Alero has three locations in DC - one on Connecticut Ave in Cleveland Park, one in Dupont Circle, and the one on U Street. The U Street one has a fun and trendy vibe, thanks to its U Street location. (The music playing is always a bit questionable, however.) As readers know, I don’t eat much red meat any more, but the steak in their steak fajitas is incredibly tender and well-seasoned. The fajitas are ginormous, so we split them between the three of us and had some nachos to start.

About Me
After seven years (and probably seven million calories) of living in D.C., I moved to NYC in August 2008. After a few months of eating my way through the city, I realized this had to stop and nipped my temptations in the bud. Here's the story of how a girl lost 50 pounds in the most tempting city known to woman. My next big challenge? The Chicago Marathon. 10.10.10.
Basic nutrition guidelines I'm following.
