How are you doing today? Well we made it, we’re here, we’re all in one piece, and spent our first full day on vacay catching up on some sleep and laying low since we missed out on one whole night’s sleep due to the cruel trick that is a red eye flight! Does anyone actually like them? With the frigid temp they seem to keep the aircraft cabin to the drink cart knocking into you, to those obnoxious loud talker types at 3am, not to mention an needy toddler on the verge of a sleep-deprived meltdown, there’s really no way to get sleep. So when you do have to red eye, what do you do? Load up on Starbucks? I know that Venti Gingerbread Soy Latte went down sooo easily! Yummy Necessity, and I did skip the whip and it still rocked!
As is my Weekly Tradition of doing recaps and highlights, here goes this week’s Highlight Reel. In case you missed Last Week’s Recap Post with all the recipes neatly tucked in one handy place, check out this post.

Yoga Today is Parivrtta Parsvakonasana (Revolved Side Angle Pose). If you need to take a modification of this because you cannot get your right arm all the way to the floor when you cross it over to the outside of your left leg (or vice versa on the other side), then just do a revolved prayer as deeply as you can, knowing dropping the hand to the floor is the full extent of the asana (pose).
Tip of the Day: The CSL Newsletter, Chock Full of Great Info!
What’s your take on Christmas or Holiday music? Part of me hates it, but part of me kinda loves it. Sometimes both! Skylar loves it but it can get a little annoying and overplayed. One of those gotta be in the mood for it things, I guess. And then the songs get stuck in your head! Oh well, it’s kinda fun, I guess. Or, what do you think of Christmas music?
Next question….when you’re on vacation are you the type who can never sit still and feel like you have to take in all 6787689 tourist activities and sightseeing excursions OR do you just say, whatever happens, happens? And maybe I’ll get to that “amazing thing I have to see” but maybe not. I’m definitely of the Whatever Happens, Happens mentality. No point in stressing out over directions, waiting in line, fighting crowds for a view, or pushing my luck with Skylar’s attention span. Do you do the tourist things or do you skip things if takes too much effort?
