- Andrea Ortlieb who said “Over Christmas each year, instead of buying presents for her 10 children, their spouses and children, my grandma would rent a hotel room for two nights for each family. We would all gather together to spend time swimming, laughing, and enjoying each other’s company. It was something we all looked forward to year in and year out. We would all bring a dish to pass as we shared a meal and memories of the past year. While the destination was usually about 15 minutes from home, it was the best vacation of the year, each year for over two decades!”
- Lynda M who said “Hilton Head Island is my favorite vacation spot! We’ve been going every year for the past 20 years and we love it!”]
For today’s giveaway, I’m giving TWO 7-quart Cuisinart Multi Cook Slow Cookers!
YOU GUYS!! This is the slow cooker than I am downright OBSESSED with. You can sear, brown and saute in the crock of this slow cooker. That means no searing on the stove and transferring to the slow cooker – it can all be done in ONE place! I love this so much and have been ranting and raving about it for over a year now. Perfection.

1. Simone who said ” I also pre-ordered The Pretty Dish in August (and sent an email on Monday).”
2. Tamar Strauss-Benjamin who said ” Best gift…wow…hard to think about that but probably my teddy bear that still is the number one “lovey” in my life. This year marks 24 years together (:”
3. David Gebhardt who said ” About 15 years ago on Christmas Eve I was in the car with my mom on the way to a party and we broke down in the middle lane of I-95 and we were completely stranded with a decent amount of traffic around, well before my mom had a cell phone. After about 10 minutes of waving at cars, hoping that someone would stop for us…a car pulled up behind us then heard what was wrong…moved his car to entirely block the right lane traffic and helped us push it to the shoulder, let us borrow his cell phone to call for help, gave crying me a box of chocolates, and drove away without even saying his name, as he didn’t want any kind of reward, just told us Merry Christmas and drove off.”]

I’m following on Insta and the Facebook :)
Our favorite vacation spot has to be Peter Island in the British Virgin Islands. We went here for the first portion of our honeymoon and it was heaven on earth. The is simply one resort with 50 rooms and it is so intimate and the service was impeccable. We did the all-inclusive package which got us a lifetime supply of boozy beach drinks and we were so happy with that!
Grand cayman! Went there this past September and fell in love with it!
I pre-ordered The Pretty Dish on Amazon — can’t wait to dive in!
I would love to go back to Thailand. Most beautiful beaches I have ever seen.

St. Thomas! Here’s hoping 2018 will be better to it.
Anywhere with a beach! We had a great time in Riviera Maya for our honeymoon – I definitely look forward to going back.

Isla Mujeres, Mexico! We don’t usually travel to the same spot twice but we’ve been there 4 times, it’s so quaint and chill, we love it.

I don’t have a favorite destination as we prefer to go to new places on each vacation, but my favorite vacation style is cruising.
