The Daily Balance

One of my favorite things about our Puerto Rico vacation was the fact that we had no plans. So often we jam-pack our vacations with crazy itineraries and excursions. It was nice to only worry about planning to reapply our sunscreen. Most of our days were spent reading at the beach, lounging in the pool and, of course, eating delicious food. (Don’t worry, we did get some fun activities in there, too!)

One of my favorite lunches:

Roasted duck salad with fresh oranges, tossed in a lime vinaigrette.

Best enjoyed poolside

This dish just screamed “summer!” to me, I loved the sweetness of the orange and the tangy tartness the lime dressing provided.

What’s your favorite poolside treat?

   I usually pack my itineraries too but for our upcoming vacay I’m going to try to make it more relaxed! I love a cool drink poolside.

   Oh I love vacations that aren’t too packed with to-dos! I’m jealous… Hubbs loves duck… I can’t remember when I’ve had it… but the salad looks fantastic!

   My favorite poolside treat is vodka, soda and cranberry… I’m hardcore like that

   I love laid-back vacations. Jam-packed itineraries would just stress me out, so I prefer to have a rough idea of what I’m going to do when I’m there, then do it on my own time.

   Anything frozen and slushy in a cup would make me happy by the poolside. =)
