Mumu's and Margaritas.

Happy Labor Day weekend, everyone!

I haven't written in a few days because we were getting ready to head down to Fenwick Island with the family. When I write "we", I mean, "I" was getting ready for the 6 of us to go. Shopping, Packing, Baking, Cooking, Loading the car...all me. My husband just has to show up in the car. My next life, I hope to come back as a man.

Anyway, we're down here with some of our best friends, and their kids. 4 adults and 8 kids. Well, should I say 10 kids, and Carla and myself. The point of this particular post is not about who did what, and who does not do much...this blog is about how we are 4 adults with a fridge full of food, and have been eating as though we are 4 anorexic sumo wrestlers trying to make weight. It's a bit ridonculous actually. Especially when I *know* I'm going to be donning a swimsuit. Luckily, I prepared myself and brought my post pregnancy mumu-esque bathing suit.

The beginning of summer I showed off my bikini body. Not my pre-pregnancy bikini body, but none-the-less, there were more tragic women wearing MUCH worse than I was. However, it's now Labor Day weekend, and in standard, end of summer bloat/weight gain, I'm bringing mumus back.

For today, we will drink the super fat, iced Margaritas at the pool, followed by rotelle and velveeta with chips, some guacamole, tacos and fajitas...and that's just the mid day appetizer. There will be dinner followed by an evening at the boardwalk where we'll get more cotton candy and ice cream, and maybe some fudge from the Candy Kitchen...then come home for more Margaritas and some Peanut Butter pie. Sounds like we'd never eat it all, especially since Margaritas and Peanut Butter don't sound like they go well together, but we do eat it and it actually doesn't mix too badly together.

So, we just finished breakfast (choc. chip pancakes, bacon and fruit....covered in Nutella, mind you) and our friend Pete walks in with 12 doughnuts from Krispy Kreme. Kids can't have that much sugar in the morning, so as dutiful parents would, we consumed it...all in the name of saving the children from obesity.

Now to get myself dressed in my mumu and head off for the day. Hmmm..that reminds me...I should put the bag of salt and vinegar chips in the beach bag....

So, off to the pool where this momma is gonna rock the mumu and Margaritas.
Have a festive, fattening day, and remember...the diet starts Tuesday!
