I make lists. For everything. I have to! There is a list for groceries, for work, for recipes (well, there is a BOOK for that really…), for my boss, for Huck, and of course, just for me. I’m a habitual list maker – but the one list I have finally given up on, is the packing list. I have been traveling so much this last year, well lots of travel by my standards at least, and at some point I reached the end of my packing list rope because I was making lists two weeks ahead of time and by the end of it, I was just throwing things into a bag hoping it covered all of my bases.

So, as I sit here at Sea-Tac getting ready to make my flight to Miami for nearly five whole days, I’m panicking – as much as one can panic with a Double Shot Bloody Mary with Lime from my mind reading hostess – on what I should have packed for five days of 84 degrees with a severe chance of thunderstorms?

I relegated all manner of hair primping products to non-travel worthy – since there will be no hope of my hair playing fair, and adios’ed all pairs of real pants, opting for maxi dresses galore! I hope that this lack-of-plan-of-attack yields positive travel results!

But next time, I should probably make a list. It’s really just better that way.

Until then, I will sip this Bloody Mary and quell the worry. Because hey, it’s Miami – if I forgot anything I can always find a shop around the corner.

  1. Prepare all chopped and sliced veggies and add to a large bowl. Pour peanut sauce over the vegetables and toss to coat thoroughly.
