Headed For Sun, Surf and Sand

Good morning!  Today I am in countdown mode.  I believe I was so caught up in being a guest chef at CM that I failed to mention the next exciting event in my life.  Let me tell you now.  In a couple of days adoring hubby, Miss T and I will head out for the British Virgin Islands.  Tortolla, to be exact.  Cheering and clapping would be an appropriate response!!

This is the icing on the cake for Miss T’s graduation from high school which took place a couple of weeks ago.  She is thrilled to be visiting a foreign country where she’ll be able to  speak the language.  I think she secretly enjoys telling people she’s traveling out of the country – it sounds “cool”.  Traveling anywhere always makes me happy but to be headed to the beautiful beaches of the BVI’s has put a huge smile on my face.

Needless to say, I won’t be posting any fabulous recipes or bee stories for a few days.  In the meantime visit a few of my favorite blogs and see what they are up to.  I’ll be back soon with some captivating photos, stories about island foods, a few of their recipes and you can bet I’ll be asking around if there are any beekeepers.
