Some Vacation Favorites

I just got back from a beach vacation in Corolla, NC with my wife and kids. It was exactly what a lazy beach vacation should be. I brought Green Mars (Mars Trilogy, Book 2) for some reading material on the hammock, and Into The Wind Kirin Dragon Kite for a little stress therapy. Nothing releases stress like throwing a kite into the air and watching the ocean breeze do the work for you. For the lazy days (and to feed screaming kids), we went with Corolla Pizza. I would encourage you to carryout and get there early to sample some of the delicious brews on draft. I cooked dinner one night (steamer pot with crab, mussel and lobster) from Steamer's. It was super easy to make and it came out great. Don't leave without visiting Duck Donuts. We stopped on our way out for some chocolate glazed and they were delicious.
