Donut Week?

Donut day was celebrated on June 7th. I didn't  get to partake in the festivities that day but I hereby declare it donut WEEK. In celebration of this, we went to Browns Donuts this morning in Ocean City.  I'd love to say we will celebrate at our other favorite donut destinations but ill never be swimsuit ready. 

Here's some other favorite spots:
Scone Pony
Muellers
Ferrara Lbi
Aversas
Dots
Mallons

Delivery Saturday

Saturdays are our busiest days for deliveries and pick ups. I'm glad to be back out in the field to do some of the deliveries and make some beds. There's something about pulling up to the delivery addresses. Most of them are somewhat unique. Maybe it's the view... Or the doormat... Or the house style... Each home has its charm. 

Today I am back wearing my relax tank top! It didn't quite fit last year cause I was really pregnant. Here's to a summer of getting in shape!  This week I only did first floor deliveries but I am so ready to carry bins up to the second floor rentals!

Rainy day at the beach

Tropical storm Andrea is bringing some rain to the jersey shore today. It's definitely a soaker but rest assured you won't melt in the rain. Rainy days at the beach are often great.
Rain, rain go away

My family has been known to always have rainy weather during their yearly vacation. We never really had to worry about getting burnt. It's actually gotten better since I got married and changed my name:)

Some vacation suggestions:
Buy a puzzle
Go to the movies
Visit the local museum
Do some arts and crafts - try a pottery studio like Glazed Over or Potomac Bead Company in Ocean City.
Go shopping
Make dinner
Play a board game

Growing up we once drove from cape may to Baltimore to visit the aquarium due to the rain. I'm not recommending that. Way too far! There are many other aquariums closer in NJ that are great to check out instead.

Caesar Anyone

We've always loved checking out new places in our delivery towns. During our pickup yesterday I decided to show the baby just some of the excitement of Atlantic City.  He can now say he's been to a casino! We stopped by Caesars to walk through the floor and hit up the stores. He just loved the lights in the lobby and on the gaming floor. St threshold he was most impressed with the water show. It was so cute having him jump and clap to the music. From a shopping mommy standpoint - many good stores are still there... Yes it's not the same but it is still great for the beach. While I didn't buy anything but Starbucks for myself - I did pick up many cute outfits from Janie & jack and some take out from Continental.

Brigantine

I love going to Brigantine to drop off and pick up our rental items. Many spots have beautiful paths to walk through to get to the beach. Here's one of our delivery locations. This beautiful spot on the southside was untouched by Sandy. On the north end they are working on a nourishment project to repair the beaches.

Baby's first ride

Yesterday was a great day at the shore. The weather was great! 

We headed up to the Ocean City boardwalk in the late afternoon after working for a few hours in the office.  Our first stop was Playland for a ride on the carousel.  It was the first ride for the baby. He loved it! So did my husband and I. Now I totally understand how our friends w kids can spend all day at the rides. Too fun.  Little does this kid know we can go to the rides all summer. Next ride: the train!

It's that time of year

It's that time of year for deliveries "to" the store. While we are normally sending out orders "from" the store we have been receiving lots of shipments of new inventory. We look forward to providing even more customers with more of our premium rental items and services.
