#LiveFromSandals Day 2

After traveling on little sleep the day before, and having an amazing day in the sun, we slept like babies. After rolling out of bed, we headed down to Bayside restaurant. I looked for Zack Morris and Kelly Kapowski, but they must be hanging out at a different Bayside. Bayside is a buffet style restaurant with many choices to pick from. Nate has been asking around for the recipe to the Chicken stew they had.

 After  breakfast, we slipped into our Swimsuits and took a quick shuttle over to Bridgetown. From there we went with the Jolly Roger guys on a snorkeling trip. We had a wonderful time swimming with turtles and seeing sunken ships! It was a blast, I've always wanted to swim with turtles!

Blondie- Our Jolly Roger Captain. 

Cruising Back to Land with Rum Punch in Hand

THE BLACK PEARL!!

 After getting back to land, we took the quick shuttle back to Sandals Barbados, where we sat down for lunch. I went for the Fish Sandwich with Curly fries. Nate Had Jerk Chicken- Let's just say, we haven't had a bad meal . I'm going to come home so much heavier. (Desmond, one of my chef friends here, told me once I get off the plane it all melts away.)

After lunch, we pretty much had the day to explore the property. Nate and I love these wood rounds that are hanging from the ceiling near the Calypso Bar. They remind us of all the wood rounds we used at the wedding.

We decided to grab some drinks and take a walk down the beach. The beach is semi-open to the public, but you really only see Sandals guests walking around. 

Prob one of Nate's favorite things at Sandals Barbados- The self serve Coffee Machine. He's Been filling up on Double Shot Espresso's every chance he can. 

 Dinner Time!! For our second night, we decided to have dinner at Portofino's Italian Restaurant. We're really starting to get used to these romantic, quiet, private, dinners for two. We both enjoyed Some Robert Mondavi cabernet sauvignon with our dinner. I had the Grilled Salmon Tomato pasta :)

We decided to stop by Cafe de Paris (Because you haven't heard me talk about Paris enough from our Honeymoon). At Cafe de Paris, you can grab an assortment of fresh baked treats, ice cream, shakes, crepes and more throughout the day. I opted for a cookie while Nate got a shake. Since it was a little cooler, we found a private spot by the fire pit and water fall to end our night. Little known fact, Nate and I created our own wedding playlist. We hand picked every song that our guest heard that day and have them all saved on spotify. We pulled up our playlist and just enjoyed the music and memories as we sat in total relaxation.

#LIVEFromSandals Day One

 The morning started pretty early for us, a 2:30am shuttle ride from Lone Star Executive Limousine to the airport for a 5am flight to Miami. When you have to leave at 2:30am, do you sleep or do you just power through? Since I love sleep, I opted to get 3 hours of good nights rest.

"Hey! Let's get Breakfast at the airport," I said. Ha. I'm so silly. You know what's open at the airport at 3am... nothing.  Really, nothing. Luckily I carry a "mom bag," you know- a bag that has everything you need. Crackers, band-aids, tylenol, pepper spray, duct tape... the essentials; I was able to eat a healthy cracker breakfast.

At 5am, we were off to Miami. Nothing too exciting here. A very nice man switched seats with me so that I could sit next to Nate. Later that nice man woke me up snoring! Ha. One of my fears. I don't want to be the person snoring or drooling. My husband got a great pic of me sleeping, mouth wide open and all. I'm a sexy sleeper.

We landed in Miami and finally sat down to eat a good breakfast. While in Miami, I couldn't quit singing The Will Smith Miami song. Over and Over and Over again. To the point where I made Nate listen to it... and then did a dub smash. Ya know, airport layover killing time stuff. You can find the  dubsmash on my instagram.

FINALLY, around 2pm (EST time) we landed in Barbados. Let me tell you, the first thing that I experienced were the friendliest people. We checked in with the Sandals desk who took us over to our shuttle. We had a fun, short (maybe 15 mins) ride to Sandals. It was entertaining and fun to see our driver drive "On the wrong side of the road" ;) Also, if you're a fan of The Funny Farm, you know what a "Whoopty-Doop" is (Roundabout). They have several here. I could just hear the words Brave Dave would be saying.

We arrived to Sandals employees singing to us "Welcome to Sandals"- what a wonderful welcome. We had a VIP check-in, went to our rooms, took pictures and squealed with excitement. We then met back up with our crew and toured the whole property.

Did you know Sandals has Love Nest Suites? Also butler suites? They are AMAZING! What a perfect way to celebrate that special occasion.

We had a nice reception soon after our tour to get to mingle with some of our other radio guests here at Sandals Barbados. During our reception, some of the great entertainers came out to dance for us. They were superb. I wish I could move like that! One of the guys told me about the show that would be taking place at 9pm, so I made a mental note not to miss it.

After our reception, I had time to throw on a nice dress, pull my hair back and throw on some heels. We were heading to the only restaurant where "Resort Evening Attire" is required- Butch's Chophouse. Butch's is a traditional steakhouse. It was very nice, not something that I was expecting at a resort. Not only was it very nice on the inside, it was very romantic and the food was delicious. This Texan gives Butch's an A+++++ . We enjoyed the Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon with our meal and just had a romantic evening talking to each other over our meal. While sitting and talking after dinner, we noticed men dressed like monkey's rolling around outside. We then noticed that the show was about to start. We walked out and found a table up front to enjoy the show. The host was grabbing participants from the audience to learn to dance to "Sexy Dark Chocolate." Let me say, she could MOVE. Girl had some dance moves. It was all good fun and all the guests enjoyed every bit. There were smiles from ear to ear everywhere. We saw men perform on stilts, a limbo contest and much more. I smiled and smiled all day- see my husbands instagram for proof of that. 

Day one in the bag. It was an amazing start to our Live From Sandals Broadcast. Leaving Paradise is going to be hard. Check out www.kstarcountry.com to find out how you can win your own Luxury Included Vacation from Sandals.

It's October!

I LOVE October! The weather kinda sorta starts to change around here, festivals come to town, and I get to celebrate Halloween :) 

This October, I'll be doing a super special broadcast and KSTAR Country will be giving away two trips to this really cool place! I can't wait to tell you all about it!!

Until then, I'm jumping head first into Halloween celebrations! I woke up this morning to make some delicious Mummy Dogs.

Your kids will love these- even the grown up ones. Brave Dave, Larry Galla and Brad Witt Gobbled them up.These are super easy to make!  Unfortunately since I was in a hurry, I didn't take step by step pictures. They're really so easy that you don't need them.

What you will need:
Bun Size Hot Dogs
Pillsbury Croissant Dough
American Cheese Slices (Optional)
Mustard
Cooking Spray


1. Heat Oven to 375

2. Roll Out your dough and separate it to make 4 rectangles. Press the perforations to seal.

3. Use a pizza cutter (or a sharp knife) to cut the rectangles lengthwise into 10 pieces- 40 total. They do not have to be perfect. If you decide to use cheese, go ahead and cut it too. Cut the slices into halves.

4. Now the fun part! Take the slices of dough and one by one wrap them around the hot dogs. Stretch the dough slightly to cover the dog. You will use 5 pieces of dough per hot dog. If you are using the cheese, place it under the hot dog and wrap around it. Make sure you leave some room for your mummy's face. Place the wrapped hot dog's cheese side down on an ungreased cookie sheet.

5. Spray dough lightly with cooking spray.

6. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until dough is lightly brown.

7. Use a toothpick and mustard to draw a face on your Mummy

8. Enjoy! :)

Burger King's Black Burger

Burger King in Japan has debuted an all new, all-black burger.

It has a black bun, black cheese and black "special" sauce.

The burger is made by smoking it using bamboo charcoal. The special sauce contains squid ink.

I just can't get past the look of this. Something just doesn't seem right about black cheese.

What are your thoughts?  If sold in the US, Would you try the all-black burger? 

Naked People in the News

This is 27 year old Timothy Seaux, of Oregon. Over the weekend, he went on a nude rampage at a hemp-themed music festival. 

According to police, Timothy was so combative four men had to restrain him on the ground.

Medical crews arrived to the scene and determined that he needed to be sedated. 

He has been charged with menacing, criminal mischief, assaulting a public safety officer, and resisting arrest. 

That hair though.
