Cabana boys to bring me delicious all you can eat whatever, esp. sushi or oysters since I'm pregnant and can't eat anything raw for a while. <BR/><BR/>It's nice to dream, it's free after all. Thanks for letting me have something to dream about now.wayabettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06993697296070707945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-20544952781082341352007-03-06T07:58:00.000-09:002007-03-06T07:58:00.000-09:00I agree on the long, hot soak, preferably with a g...I agree on the long, hot soak, preferably with a good book.

I'd also love a long hot bath, but I have the height vs. tub issue and it's just not worth it.

I made a list of my own a few weeks ago, but I totally agree with you that reading a good book in a warm room would be near to the top of my list -- although with our humidity, the warm part is lacking. In the spring and summer I like to do it out in the sun too. Ideally, I dream of reading a book by a cozy fireplace, but I don't think I'll have that luxury for a while!<BR/><BR/>And nibbling on some of my favorite foods comes in close to the top too -- I took my boy out to dinner for his b-day last night, and we discovered a new restaurant together, where we had an excellent meal. I had read a few articles about the place, which came highly recommended, and overall we weren't disappointed. I love that kind of evening... Plus, the weather is just starting to warm up here -- I hope it lasts!The Late Bloomerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08337578942279132688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-14328442707253664202007-03-03T21:45:00.000-09:002007-03-03T21:45:00.000-09:00Oh, the possibilities are endless ... it all depen...Oh, the possibilities are endless ... it all depends on my mood and the weather.

If I had time without kids, a walk alone in our woods on a sunny day would be my pleasure.<BR/><BR/>Reality is alone time really is only found when little ones are napping and big ones are occupied.

But seriously, an hour of playing my guitar on an empty front porch (in summer) or in front of a fire (in winter) followed by several hours of bubble bath with a novel is my dream "retreat". <BR/><BR/>If I only have a couple of hours in the middle of the day, I like to slip away and see a brainless chick flick matinee.
