Great While it Lasted...

This past weekend Kate and I packed up and left our old, shabby yet really adorable beach house. It truly was a dream that we are sad to leave. I will miss the beach in my backyard, the amazing sunsets on the drive home from work, and the daily runs on the beach. Although we are excited for our new and bigger place, we will miss the amazing beach days. Thanks Seashore Dr. we have loved our stay! If we are still single next year, we may come back! :)





I will post pics of the new place as soon as we get settled in. And don't feel too sorry for me, we only moved a mile away, we still have easy access to the beach! Just not AS easy!
Also, please remind me next time I decide to move, that I HATE moving. So I should stay put for awhile!

A New Way to Love Mangoes....

I am sure there are many of you who know how much I LOVE mangoes! However my nickname does stem from that love of mango since I think my mom was calling me "Mango" long before I had ever tasted that juicy deliciousness! I seriously love anything with mango, so I had to take time to blog about a WONDERFUL gift I was given yesterday. While sitting in church, my friend Diz aka Wendy, pulled a unopened pack of Orbit gum and gave it to me. I was initially very grateful and yet somewhat curious as to the meaning of the gift. Did I have bad breath? Was this a plea from one of my girls to improve my hygiene? Then I examined the pack a little closer and became overjoyed at what I held in my hands. Yes ladies and gentlemen, Orbit gum has a new flavor....

MANGO MIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



The girls (Ali and Wendy) had seen this new flavor and immediately thought of me! Awww!
I am a huge fan, Kate thought it was a little too sour at first taste, but I promise if you give it a try you will like it! I am converted! Raspberry Mint and Wintermint, you have now fallen to number 2 and 3 in my book!
