Summer Fun – Aloha Friday

 Summer Fun   Aloha Friday
Taken during out last trip to Cebu in 2009

In a few days we will be heading for a week long vacation at the Beach. It will be daily trips to the swimming pool and building sandcastles on the beaches.

I’m halfway down my To-Do-List with only the  book reviews,  short series and kids bake session( I’ll postpone this till when we are back from the holidays) to be done.  I have a perfectly good excuse for this as I’m waiting for my new Kenwood Mixer to arrive.

After much consideration I decided to go with the Kenwood KMO030  Timed Mixer as it had all the features which I needed.  I can’t wait to try out this cool kitchen gadget with the kids.  R generously offered to sponsor one for me as our 10th Wedding Anniversary present. I love him to bits. I’ll certainly put this baby to good use churning out great bakes/ dishes for him and the kids.

1. If you had to choose, how would you prefer to choose to spend money…on landscaping or a pool?

It would certainly be landscaping.  I’m not so into having our own pool . A garden would certainly be nice.

2. (Scott likes to get things stirred up…) Death penalty, yay or nay?

Yay. For certain crimes it’s the only punishment which would fit.

3. What’s the worst thing your kid has gotten into when you turned your back/blogged/showered/blinked?

You see the big bottle of cooking oil in the photo above?  Now imagine the same big bottle being spilled on the kitchen  floor by a toddler and seeing him literally “Swimming in oil”.  That happened once with Doggie boy and from that day onwards I’m never purchased  cooking oil is bottles that were greater then 1L and have it well hidden in the kitchen cabinet.

4. How often do you REALLY go to the dentist?

We go to the dentist every six months. I make appointments in advance as I believe in the kids and I taking good oral care.  In fact we just went to the dentist this week for a check up.

5. What is your favorite animal (doesn’t have to be a pet-type animal)?

I love bears. However I’m more into the stuff toy version then the actual live one.

My Questions this week

( My diaper bag is busted so I need another replacement)

1) What bag is good to use like a diaper bag that is lightweight, sturdy and lots of compartments and easy to bring about?

2) What bag did you carry when you have to bring all your kids out?

I would like to thank all who gave me all the lovely suggestions on how to cook fish last week. I will try them out with the boys once we are back from our vacations.

    our diaper bag was hand made from my hubbys Army uniform…
    I do want another (bigger) one whenever we have another baby though

    1) I have so many bags, I can hold a bag sale. The ones I love should have a square bottom so that it can sit by itself. I received one complimentary from taste of home and it is so awesome for the beach, library, you name it. Light weight, easy to see the bottom and it is big…yeah~
    2) I have a bag that I carry around with my daughter and it is awesome too. It is for any kind of weather, practical, and fit for any occasion.

    I would spend money on the landscaping because it is harder to maintain a pool.

    Aloha!

    First of all, thank you for stopping by. As far as your questions I’m not sure which one to answer. Soooooooooo Definitely landscaping. Hubby would like that too. I go to the dentist every six months hubby too! We want to take care of our teeth even if they don’t want to stay with us. :( Have a great weekend.

    I can’t imagine having to clean up after that oil episode.

    About diaper bags – I just use a bag that’s big enough to chuck all the kids’ stuff in. No particular brand. Although I did see a Carters diaper bag once that I really liked.

    Happy vacationing at the beach!

    Right now I’m using a Juicy Couture diaper bag. It has lots of pockets but the top opening in kind of small. I do love it, though!
