Sandy beaches and salty waves swept us up this week for a much needed get-away....to our couches...where we watched other people take vacations.... Okay, so maybe Taylor and Riley only had a staycation, but their vacay movie picks Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar have plenty of sunshine and Tommy Bahama to go around. Nick made us a yummy blue drink (recipe below) that you can try at home while you spit-take these two side-splitting comedies.
