Just popping in to say hi from Aruba.
We made it after a long travel day from California, about 22 hours door-to-door, and Skylar traveled like a champ.
We went to the grocery store, stocked up on the essentials, including fresh produce and enough butter and sugar to get into some serious baking trouble fun.
I cleaned up the house because after 6 months of non-use it needed it.
And then got into a baking project that kind of reminds me of these. Family’s gotta eat, right?
Then we hit the beach.
Don’t you just want to dive in?
We’re off for a sunset walk now.
Thanks for the Bella Bars Giveaway entries
What was the best part of your day?
Wow, you are a trooper to be able to clean the house after such a long trip!! I would just need to lie on the sand doing nothing for 48 hours after such a long journey. :)
Woah – that’s a loooong trip. Hope you’re having fun – I can’t get over that crystal clear water!!
Omg, that beach looks soo gorgeous! I wanna go! :(
Looks magical.
Your pictures are just beautiful. I can’t wait to see more of Aruba and the fantastic things you make while there!
thanks, Laura! I’ve been busy already.
Hope you are getting used to east coast time, Averie!! A sunset walk… sounds incredible to me right now. Today, it’s sweltering in Baltimore. I need an ocean breeze! And OMG I can’t wait to see that recipe you hinted at. Anything similar to those danish squares has me giddy. I love those things. I have to make them with my crescent dough sitting in my fridge!
you’re going to die – so good and easy! But in the meantime, best use ever of a crescent roll tube is that danish! Stay cool in the heat. It’s 90F here but it’s not “that” bad b/c kid you not, Aruba has a 25mph+ wind “light breeze” at all times!
So jealous!! I was fortunate to spend a week in Aruba in January!!! Absolutely loved it!! And no the pics do not do it justice. Enjoy!!
glad you loved it too!
So stinkin jealous. I want to be there!
Those views are breathtaking! I’d love to be on a boat right now… sailing the world away!
And you and D should!!!
Glad you made it safely!!!
The best part of my day was relaxing on the couch with some of your white chocoalte puppy chow and watching a movie with the boy!
glad the puppy chow is a hit!
Don’t I want to dive in? Um, YES!!!
Baking before hitting the beach?!? Impressive. Single girls don’t do that. ;)
