Cheesehead yes we like to stay in the Playa area. Have never heard of a chunky monkey, what’s in it. I am a Mango Tango and Margarita kind of girl. Have stayed at Catalonia, Princess, Princess Platinum and Blue Esmeralda ( where we will be going again this year).

Thanks Joanelizbay. I think of myself as a little hippyish sometimes. Ah, the good old days!! LOL I remember buying that one with a cat fabric in the same colors. There are little paw prints in the paisleys. Or whatever they're called.

Terri, this is a chunky monkey! It has Kahlua, and a few other liqueurs a half of a banana and the usual cream of coconut all blended together with ice.[ATTACH=CONFIG]607290[/ATTACH]

Cheesehead, boy does that drink look delicious! Imagine the blocks that would be made while under the influence of a Chunky Monkey
I'm back home in Virginia and see there's been a lot of action in the Boom Room.. So glad everyone and their loved ones are back home and safe! I've been humming the Sooner or Later song for days now and profess to having a little hippie in me as well
Love everyone's fabric and can't wait to start! I, too, confess to a little freshman anxiety but I'm sure after a few blocks I'll be in the swing of things! While in California I found a block book at the Friends of the Library for a $1 with tons of ideas in addition to all the wonderful links SBG posted.
Have all my fabric pressed, cut, bagged and labeled - going to the post office this afternoon!

Cheese that looks like a great evening cocktail, will see if they make them.
We went on a cruise many years ago wth 2 other couples that were newbies to cruising. As the ship left port they were serving pina coladas left and right. Between the drinks and the rough ocean they were all so sick. Every time I think of coconut milk I can see their green faces.

Are these all inclusive resorts? My husband is looking for us a nice place to stay down south that is all inclusive. We have been on several cruises that have taken us to some really nice places.

Cheesehead, the fabric and the drink both look delicious. Cheers to the boomers!
Kass, I'm sorry about what happened to your friend. I suppose it was the drugs made his post sound a bit warped? I would not trust an Airbnb in Mexico. Too many articles on things gone very bad in a rental there. Glad your friend is back home safe and sound, and I guess he has more wisdom now.
terriamn, I would have been so scared I'd be crying. Seriously, anything that has to do with gas leaks, electricity, fire, possible explosion---it completely undoes me to the point to tears. God was watching over you indeed!
I'm a Sooner Boomer but I'll be peeking over the fence of you Later Gators

Lstew yes we only stay at all inclusive. There are so many things to take into consideration. We don’t care for highrises but have found out even huge resorts that have lots of small clusters of Two story buildings are great because they are their own little community. We also prefer to have swim up rooms. They have a swimming pool right outside your patio door. Do you enjoy kids or do you prefer a resort without. Do you like a place with a night life, do you like to be close to town, gourmet food? Lots of option.
