I think when it comes to summer fruit desserts are the best. When the air is warm, all you want to eat is something refreshing. Pineapple is one of the refreshing food that best eaten in the summer because it contains so much water in the fruit.

You can find pineapple everywhere, if you can't get fresh pineapple, you can get the canned ones.

Part I

My boys and I - Will, Hickory and I, that is - just returned from a week-long road trip through Alaska's interior.

I.did.not.want.to.come.home.

Our travels took us along the Glenn Highway to Lake Louise, into the Wrangell-St. Elias National Park along the Nabesna Road and then further into the Park via the McCarthy Road to McCarthy and Kennecott, two quirky towns perched on a glacier full of fascinating history.

At the beginning of May I left for a 20-days work experience trip with EcoFieldTrips, a company that mainly organises and lead fieldtrips in Tioman for school groups. Tioman is a small tropical island on the east coast of Malaysia that's approximately half the size of Singapore. Most of the island remain happily undeveloped - the main industry is tourism, concentrated in a few small villages along the coast.

Wan-Ting's wonderful photos from a 20-day work experience trip with EcoFieldTrips to Tioman Island, a small island located 32 km off the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia in the state of Pahang, from a scaly-breasted munia (Lonchura punctulata) to an underwater treadmill that was probably used as reef-building material.

Personally when I read this quote my first reaction is that I am not travelling because I'm 'lost' and trying to find myself, which is such a common travel cliche. My first thought is I travel because that is what I'm supposed to be doing with my life right now.

Father's Day Gifts for My Favorite TV Dads

Reblogged from Childhood Relived:

Like a lot of people, next Sunday I'll be honoring my dear ol' dad – perhaps in the form of a Home Depot gift card.  Because nothing says "thank you for life, love and shelter" like new electrical outlet covers.
