I totally forgot to post about my trip home to Florida!  It has always been my home, so it seemed so normal, I didn’t really think about writing about it.  But here is my trip in pictures…

I was on a free ticket thanks to all the miles I racked up, but that meant a poopy connection.  I was prepared for the VERY long flight.  I had all these movies with me.  Forks over Knives was so informative!  We Need to Talk about Kevin was probably my favorite.  It was messed up with an unhappy ending, but I like those kind of movies.

I was starving when I got to Philly, and was craving Chick Fil A… haven’t seen one in Cali yet

When I finally made it to Florida after 12 hours of traveling, I heard them talk about Red Velvet Cake Ice Cream on the radio, so I  knew I had to track it down.  Let me tell you, it was worth it!

I also cooked for my mom one night.  I made “Skinny” Chicken Parm.  I baked the chicken and topped it with marinara and low fat provolone.  Then I made a quick side of spaghetti squash with roasted tomatoes and a little parmesan.

We got to go the beach twice!  Once at Juno Beach…

… and once at Lantana Beach.

On Lantana Beach, we ate at Dune Deck Café where I had the best Greek Salad EVER!  Maybe I liked it so much because they had so much feta.

Later that night we went to a great sushi buffet!  I was so ravenous I only got one picture in.

The day I went home, I had breakfast with my dad & step-mom at Nick’s Diner.  I was tempted by the vast menu, but opted for the Bananas Foster French Toast.  I can’t resist anything with “Bananas Foster” in the title!

What is your favorite part of vacation?  Eating…Relaxing… Beach… Adventure… Culture?  I like ALL of the above.
