I’m back from vacation. I hope you enjoyed the guest posts from last week!

You may enter until this Thursday, August 12 and I will announce the winner on Friday morning.
Vacation pictures:
Here are a few pictures from our trip. The Gilbert family went to Esperanza Resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. It was beautiful with hot weather and perfect ocean and pool views. I posted on Friday with a summary of a few workouts from the trip, and here are the beautiful pictures. Enjoy!
The ones below are the family playing our nightly game of gin, a view of the pools at night at Las Ventanas Resort, a sunrise view from the condo, the relaxing area of the spa, a view of one of Esperanza’s pools, and me and Amy in the ocean.
The ones below that are some food pictures–breakfast parfait I made, a Cherry Berry Green Monster (cherries, blueberries, 1/2 banana, ice, spinach), dinner cooked in the condo, and an orange-prickley pear juice in the spa. And an ice cream sundae from Edith’s Restaurant. Also one of me swimming laps by myself!






















I love Rachel Ray! I think it would be so fun to have her magazine
Your pictures look awesome, so glad you had a good time
Oh, that food looks exquisite, especially the parfait and ice cream. Are you sure you didn’t get those pictures straight out of the Rachel Ray magazine?!

Hi — it’s fun being your friend on fb. I love seeing your pictures and reconnecting with an old neighbor. Saw your Mom in Whole Foods recently and we had a chance to catch up. Your recipes are great too!
p.s. I’ve love a Rachel Ray subscription too!
Marci, your trip looks like it was a lot of fun. We missed you in Austin over the weekend. Eric said he saw you posted something about Doctor Kracker and we bought some yesterday at Whole Foods – delicious! Thanks for giving us lots of ideas for new things to try!
What a beautiful set of photos. Congratulations to both of you!
I love Rachael Ray’s recipies and have many of her cookbooks. She was one of the first cooking show personalities my daughter recognized and we often pretend to be her when cooking meals. Would love to win a subscription to her magazine.
I’ve been reading RR while at the salon and I’m slowly starting to like it. I love green smoothies but I need a better blender. The spinach doesn’t blend as well as I want it to
