Cole and I are off for a summer vacation with my family on Cape Cod and we also managed to squeeze in a day in Manhasset too see my Grandma and Aunt Susie and a night out in the NYC with my friends.  We actually arrived to the Cape yesterday and all the excitement I was feeling before this trip was totally justified. I'm so happy to be able to see my niece April.  I'm soaking up every cute little thing she does and stealing as many kisses as possible.  (She's napping now, obviously.)  Cole is sleeping in.  I'm sitting at a beautiful wood farmhouse table looking at the ocean to my right and the Olympics to my left. I can smell the beach and the sticky salty air, but feel some cool central air at my feet.  Life is good.

Just wanted to share these cookies I made for the trip and placed little gift bags in every room with an assortment of nautical cookies including anchors, sea horses, seashells, jelly fish, lobsters, starfish, etc.
