    1. Descibe or PIP your bathing suit.

    I hate that most plus size suits have little skirts attached.  Like that hides my flabby thighs!  Alas, I do not look this awesome in the suit but it is cute, comfy & I got it cheap:

    2. Beach or pool?

    Pool!  Sand is annoying.

    3. What food = summertime for you?

    Berries!  I love going to local farms for berry picking.  Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries.

    4. What's your go-to adult beverage on hot days?

    Passion fruit colada (made with maracuja, a Portuguese liquor):

    5. Any vacation plans?

    We'll go down for a long weekend as always @ my grandma's time share in Cape Cpd next month.  Should be the last weekend before I start stims for IVF #2.

    1. Descibe or PIP your bathing suit. I have a couple bikini's, however I will be going swimming suite shopping soon.  I have gained to much weight to be seen in a bikini!

    2. Beach or pool? Either!

    3. What food = summertime for you?  BBQ, and fruit!

    4. What's your go-to adult beverage on hot days?  Iced anything!

    5. Any vacation plans?  Nothing set in stone.  Most likely a few camping trips to nearby lakes/reservoir's, and maybe in the mountains.  I'm also trying to come up with the cash to go to a friends wedding in the Bahama's.  (I may have to whore myself out to other ICU's in the hospital I work at.)
