San Diego seaweed

The rest of the trip after Legoland was low key…back to the pool and hot tub scene with some nap time in between.  P built a model T-rex while V slept in the other room. I ate a quarter of the kids’ sando with a chicken salad that I bought at the hotel’s “marketplace” store.   It’s also where I bought the above granola, which I had for breakfast.  Their selection of gluten free snacky goodies is amazing, but they are marked up 200% because they know suckers will pay for it.  The good news is… Read more >

Legoland

Once again, Kyle and I squeezed workouts in first thing, before setting off for the day.  Our plan was still a surprise from the kids, so they had no clue what we were up to.  First things first. Coffee. I didn’t take a picture of my “best drink ever” (known as the BDE) but it was once again a serious highlight.  I almost ordered something else but Kyle reminded me that I loved it last year so I should def get it again and I’m so glad I listened to him because he was, of… Read more >

Making the best Choice

Kyle and I woke up WAY too early that first morning of vacation (why do you think that was?? cough cough, baby girl).  Sharing a hotel room is always an adventure!  Anyway, the good news was it gave us plenty of time to work out before breakfast.  We took turns at the resort gym, although I barely got my heart rate up since I was watching Bravo on my phone more than ellipticalling. In any event, we decided to hit up the buffet because we loved it last time we were there.  It is such… Read more >

Day 7: buzz and bye

From a former caffeine addict to decaf drinker…oh life. I had read good stuff about Better Buzz but we got a bunch of free coffee vouchers to the Peet’s at our hotel so it seemed pointless to leave in the morning for coffee.  But by the last day we had run out of the vouchers, so it was time to hit up Better Buzz for some java. Kyle was feeling off (he and I had a cold all week long) and didn’t want food, so he got a blended coffee thing.  I got a decaf… Read more >

Day 6: zoo day

Ugh.  This day.  So much drama.  I’m not even going to write about it.  Here are some photos… We went to Healthy Creations (yet again) because their menu has so many things begging to be tried. I got a strawberry smoothie and immediately regretted it. We came to a place that makes gluten and grain free fare and I ordered a smoothie?!?!  WTF kind of rookie move is that.  The “Berry Happy” smoothie was okay, but nothing great.  It had strawberries, raspberries, Goji berries, stevia, banana, cashew milk and cashew crème.  But honestly?  it just tasted… Read more >
