ONE.
My mom is obsessed with listening to music on the beach and we always do with the obnoxiously large DeWalt radio my friend Lisa gave us. One day I will get Mom on Bluetooth and get her to compromise on her musical tastes so everyone can be happy. I can say that because I know she is not a reader just a liker ;)
In this vein, I made my top five beach song list for you!
a. Summertime by Will Smith
b. Heatwave by Martha and the Vendellas
c. Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves
d. If I Ever Feel Better by Phoenix
e. Keep me in Mind by Zac Brown Band (although Toes and Knee Deep should go here too!)
TWO:
My sisters and I each take one breakfast, lunch, dinner, signature drink and dessert each to make. I am making:
a. Waffles!
b. Salad in a jar for some adults, quesadillas for the kids, Mimi and the uncles.

These recipes will be coming soon!
Skinny Coco Locos:
