Cause the flavors of the tropics...aka..Pina Colada, just remind me of Happy thoughts 🙂

Such as lounging on a beach or out by the pool.

As long as I can remember they have always been one of my favorite Frou-Frou drinks as my hubbie likes to call them.

Well other then actually being there absorbing all the wonderful vitamin D's and sipping on a cool tropical drink.

Okay, can I be there now! Haha!

But then again, waking up to breakfast READY to go is always a win win in my opinion. So we'll just roll with that one.

Especially since I don't see a tropical vacation in the near future.
