Food Review!

I’m back, at the end of a long, delicious weekend.  It’s not over, since tomorrow’s a holiday!  🙂  And, in the spirit of holidays, our neighbors have invited us for brunch:  crepes!  The guy spent two years living in France, so I guess he knows what he’s doing; the bonus is that he promised to … Continue reading →

Southern Charm

I’m finding that these posts are getting harder and harder to maintain.  It’s partly because I have a tendency to juggle the same favorite meals from day to day, but it’s also because I have a non-nap-taking toddler on my hands these days! However, I mentioned the themed potlucks we’ve been having with the neighbors, … Continue reading →

Weekend Recap

How was your weekend?  Good?  Ours, too! Saturday morning the boys went off to the beach since I had an editing job to do and needed the quiet!  The university is back in session, which means I’ll very likely be editing once or twice a week for one of the professors, who is a non-native … Continue reading →

Sunny Saturday

Seba’s best friend is coming back to the island this afternoon!  He is going to be thrilled.  We better take all the toys back that we borrowed from her before she realizes we’ve been playing with them without her! Last night’s pizza was pretty much a success.  Super delicious.  Soft and doughy.  And the asparagus … Continue reading →

Playing With Fire

Yesterday was long. As Seba and I were trying to find some trouble to get ourselves into in the morning, the mister suggested we pop over to his office for a lunch date.  The university has a kind of courtyard in between some of the buildings, and it’s got a few trucks dedicated to self-sustaining, … Continue reading →

Many Hats

Friday night, Pizza and Movie Night was back in full swing.  Only, instead of the usual toppings, I threw on some green peppers this time.  Rebel.  And because I was thinking ahead, I chopped up a bunch of extra onions for guacamole for Saturday.  🙂  Multi-tasker.  We attempted to watch Megamind and almost made it … Continue reading →

Play dat Djembe!

After this afternoon’s glorious, much-needed nap (Seba’s, not mine), I remembered that Thursday nights are concert nights in the botanical garden near the crater.  Tonight’s concert was the last for this season, and it was an African drum ensemble, including dancers, called Sewa Fare.  I’ve been looking forward to seeing them perform for several weeks, … Continue reading →

Discover!

Last night was our get-together with my husband’s boss.  Just a little evening potluck at the beach, followed by the fireworks, shot off at the Hilton every. single. Friday.  It’s a good thing we were down the coast a little ways, because Seba’s not the biggest fireworks fan, but they weren’t too loud on our … Continue reading →

A Day in My Life

Last night was a doozy!  Seba napped yesterday for the first time in about a week, and only for about an hour and a half, and he was going strong until just after 9 last night.  I was up reading until about 12:30, which is very late for me!  And at 3:30 this morning, a little … Continue reading →

Indulgences

It’s been a few days since I’ve checked in.  We’re on day 4 or 5 of a no-nap marathon with the boy, so I’m lucky to get much done at all!  We’ve been out enjoying the sunshine, and that’s much more important than anything I could have written here, anyway! I got some goodies at … Continue reading →
