#18

Another one bites the dust. This year's girls-only vacation came at the perfect time. It was one glorious week full of sunshine, relaxation, tasty food and creative cocktails. Here are some of the highlights:

• 3 lobster paninis and 2 tall bloody Marys
• 2 pounds of homemade fudge (That's right. Two pounds.)
• 61 degrees of chilly perfection
  
• 8 servings of gelato
• 1 failed french fry prank
  
• 2 accidental lockouts
  
• 1 box of not-so-good, yet still-drinkable wine
  
• 9 raw oysters, 6 raw clams and one dozen steamers
• 2 espresso martinis
• 1 disappointing attempt to fly a poorly designed kite (which may have been successful if it cost more than $5, and we didn't have to assemble it ourselves)
  
• 2 trips to Race Point Beach (1 seal sighting, but 0 sharks spotted)
  
• 1 amazing impersonation caught on video (even better than last year's Martha Stuart impression.)
• 1 late library book
• 1 spectacular sunset
  
• Lots and lots of laughing
