Poke secrets

This girl put her suit on as soon as she got up every morning and then sat waiting patiently for everyone else to be ready.  Since Kyle and I alternated loooong workout sessions (why not!? it’s vacation!) it took us a while to get out of the room, which was why cooking for them was better than making them wait to dine out with us.  As you probably guessed by now, I got acai bowls from Choice most of the time.  Kyle did most days too, but he also got smoothies and baked goods from… Read more >

Lemony kale brown rice

Oh my goodness, these vacation posts are never ending!  We are back now, and I am getting life sorted out. It was a total whirlwind of a weekend to get set up for Monday and now Kyle has already left for a week away on a work trip (back in Hawaii if you can even believe it!). I am so glad we got things planted before we left because look at what we came home to!!!  Oh my goodness! Chard chard chard.  Their favorite thing to grow and snack on is definitely chard. We went… Read more >

Standing sleeping

The kids were up really early so I got gourmet with our limited groceries and made french toast. This bread is REALLY good by the way.  It’s like Dave’s Killer Bread (but cheaper because it’s Safeway’s name brand) and still just as high of quality.  I am considering adding Safeway to our grocery store roster after seeing all the awesome stuff the store in Lahaina had.  My parents’ Safeway is really good too and the there is actually one closer to us than TJs so I don’t know why I never shop there?! How cute… Read more >

Down to the pirate ship

  When the weather is this sublime you have to enjoy it on the balcony.  Especially when the day before was torrential. This was the “face-time” juice from Choice (again).   I don’t have many photos from the morning but we walked down to the Westin to play at their kids swim area with a pirate ship. They had so much fun.  As awesome as all the Honua Kai pools are, I knew the Westin had the pirate ship similar to the one the Marriott had (where we were staying before) and they loved it. … Read more >

The downpour

After days of fake news (rainy forecasts that weren’t), the storm finally hit us on Monday. Another day, another acai bowl.  I drove to Lahaina again for this guy after my work out at the hotel gym.  Per usual, I phoned it in, watching tv on the Bravo app while going through the motions on the elliptical.  This is my vacation exercise routine and I love it. We had a typical morning at the pool, but it got cut a tad short because of some drizzle. For lunch I had the rest of the acai… Read more >
