Remember last week's sunscreen post? Well, I ended up buying the Loving Naturals Sunscreen mentioned in that post. Unfortunately, and even though I opted for two day shipping with my Amazon Prime account, I didn't receive the sunscreen in time for vacation. Since my first choice was no longer an immediate option and I needed something to prevent sunburn, my mom had a bottle of Alba Botanica Green Tea Sunblock waiting for me when we arrived at the condo Saturday night. She's...

For me, one of the best parts of vacationing is being able to eat delicious food nonstop without feeling the usual amount of guilt. My vacation mode internal dialogue- "Two pieces of pie and a cookie for dessert? Well, I am on vacation. Why not? And maybe I should wash it down with a tub of melted butter... " Below are some of the tastiest dishes and treats I've been allowing myself to enjoy this week.
Oh yeah! Danielle and I did manage to make the Mango Lime Virgin Margaritas I mentioned in yesterday's post. As per...

I love a mixed drink as much as the next broad, but the last thing I need when I'm sweating on the beach is a dehydrating alcoholic beverage. My solution? Mocktails! Sure, mocktails might seem childish to some, but they can also be refreshing, tasty, and even healthy (if you play your cards right)! Last year at the beach, Danielle and I made a couple of Safe Sex on the Beaches (initially attracted to the clever name) using this simple recipe. They were mega delicious, and we both felt fancy while drinking them. We liked them...

I just got back from a sufficiently relaxing vacation with Kirby and his family (hence my week-long post hiatus). The week was filled with sunshine, fruity drinks, and insane amounts of food. I enjoyed every second of it, but my body still hates me for all the junk food that I consumed. Potato chips, sausage casserole (Sometimes I'm a bad vegetarian, okay?), and lots of bread and cheese pretty much made up my entire diet for the week. I still feel sluggish, and I'm convinced that the three ulcers in my mouth are somehow connected to the poor food choices...

My beach vacation has been pretty fly thus far. I haven't spent much time at the beach (because of the nasty water...oil spills are for the birds), but our Condo is sufficiently sweet. There's a lazy river; how cool is that?! I've been avoiding shampoo altogether this week and using baking soda in its place. I've been conditioning with Aveda Rosemary Mint Conditioner (and my hair has never looked better): My mom bought me some Time & Again Organics hand cream today at a cute little shop. It was seven dollars, and it smells like a dream:
