Do you want to know what is on my mind today (most days in the winter)?
This sunset in Key West…
Or the best cup of coffee I ever had in the mountains of El Valle, Panama….
Or this secluded beach in Panama that my husband and I got to enjoy…
This sunset at the top of the sand dunes in the Outer Banks, NC..
Or even better, this sunset in Hawaii..
Or this one…
Or experiencing a little Pure Michigan.
I am guilty…my mind is filled with these pictures, memories and the feeling of warm weather, colorful surroundings and beautiful sunsets.
In my short 31 years of life I have come to the realization that I am a warm weather person. I have always loved beaches and warm weather but now that I am older for some reason it is even worse!
I am still trying to figure out ways to cure the winter blues (other than eating comfort food constantly and hibernating the minute I get home from work) and ideas are greatly appreciated? 🙂
Until then I will sip on this “tropical smoothie”…
Cheers to warmer days!

Growing up in Boston and now living in Seattle I definitely find myself missing the sunshine and the warmth. Love the idea of a smoothie in the middle of winter to transport you beachside. Great idea.

Yum! I am so in hibernation mode and I don't even care. I am so excited for summer. We are going to a wedding in Key West. I have never been and that sunset makes me happy!
