This last week I was on holiday with A. We had decided in early January that we wanted to do a week in Hawaii, and had been trying for months to get our group of friends to commit. When we saw that we had the same week off for our February break, the first time we had overlapping breaks in the last few years, we booked our flights to Maui later that week.

In many ways, A and I are different. But in our love of travel, we are the same. I booked the rental car, and she a lovely, recently updated condo through VRBO. The last week of work I was simply counting down the days until there was sunshine, beaches and fruity drinks in my hand!

The first day we picked up groceries at whole food and then hit the beach after dropping our stuff off the the condo. We lounged for a while, and then picked up some delicious food at a tasty restaruarant called Nalu’s.

I ate this fantastic thing.

I need to find more places down here in San Jose that have acai bowls, as I’ve recently come to find that they are amazing and I don’t know where they have been all my life.

Any acai bowl places you would recommend? Any recipes I should try to make at home?

Love,
