Oooh, it's that last line that really caught my attention. I'm all over baked oatmeal & of course anything with chocolate and nut butter is a mush try!

JulieWunder says
I eat a lot of variety too! It was hard to figure out ones I eat most of the time. Great to see you today!
Debbie Bowen says
My husband and I loved Barcelona in 2010. We only spent 2 nights & 3 days there before our cruise, but we were able to walk all over. We took a tour also and saw a big part of the city. I would love to go back some day and explore more of the city and country.
JulieWunder says
Oh fun! It sounds like such a magical place. I hope to go someday.

Megan says
Hi Julie! I'm really enjoying your blog! Quick question - where have you stayed on Maui and where would you recommend? We are planning our honeymoon this October! I would also really appreciate food/activity recommendations! Thanks!
JulieWunder says
Hi Megan! That is SOOOO exciting! I've enjoyed hotels on both Kaanapali and Wailea. I got married on a beach just south of Wailea, so I'm a little partial to it. I actually have a post coming up about Wailea this week. I've stayed at the Marriott twice there. It's the best deal on Wailea-- which is notoriously expensive. On Kaanapali I stayed at the Westin and also liked it.
I would 100% do the Old Lahaina Luau, Mama's Fish House, everything in my Haleakala and Maui upcountry post and Kihei Cafe. If you've never surfed, sign up for of the beginners lessons.
Send me an e-mail if you need anymore!
Megan says
Thanks so much! This was so helpful! I'll likely be e-mailing you at some point over the next few months as we continue planning! So exciting!
Shelley Marcy says
Julie is the coconut oil you use the same as the kind I cook with? Or do you actually buy a beauty product grade coconut oil. I know it says on my cooking coconut oil that you can use in your hair and skin. I just started cooking with this stuff and it's amazing.
JulieWunder says
Same type! I buy the one a trader joes, but anyone would work. It seems weird at first, but once you get used to it, it's amazing.
Heather@hungryforbalance says
Fun!! 5 things I eat everyday: bananas, apples, almond butter, leafy greens, and egg whites.
JulieWunder says
Yum! Yum! Yum! Now that's a good day of eats 🙂
Dannii @ Hungry Healthy Happy says
I love discovering new things about people 🙂 I try to eat some kind of berries every day, usually with some Greek yoghurt.
JulieWunder says
Yum! Now that's one of my favorite combinations.
