Merry Christmas from blue skies + golden sunshine

I'm typing this as I sit admiring palm trees and bright blue skies. Have escaped the bitter cold of Chi-town and traded up for a SoFla Christmas back home this year, filled with azure waters, strappy maxi dresses, Coach sunglasses, and impossibly miniature and delectable crabcakes... jealous much? I am, and I was there!
