Aloha
Just a quick update, because I promised I’d check in, but I am trying not to spend all of my vacation connected to something electronic… Arrived safely last night, checked into the hotel, and promptly crashed at 10pm here (which felt like 1am). NavyGuy is all done with his Navy exercise, and met me at […]
A reminder for all
Even if you’re not spending Memorial Day weekend in Hawaii, you’ll probably spend it in the sun somewhere. Please check out this great video.

Recipe: Chicken Enchiladas
On Friday, I wanted Mexican food, but NavyGuy is super sick of the one good Mexican restaurant in town where we get burritos, so I had to whip up a Mexican meal at home. I did some surfing and found this recipe for chicken enchiladas, which I then simplified for my lazy still-learning how to […]
MilSpouse Friday Fill-In #40
(Have there really been 40 of these already? Wow! Wife of a Sailor, thank you for all your hard work putting these together each week so I have something to blog about on Fridays.) 1. Which was the best day of your life- Wedding day or Homecoming day? submitted by Pink Champagne, Gatorade & […]

Based on all of your wonderful suggestions, a Facebook query, two Oahu guidebooks, and many many internet searches, I have the following items on our “to-do” list! * Visit Pearl Harbor — the Arizona Memorial, and the U.S.S. Missouri. * Hike Diamond Head — Apparently, the thing to do when you go to Oahu. Akin […]
