I Love Cottaging!



I love cottaging. We rented a cabin on St. Mary's Island in MD. A small place with like only 8-10 cottages, only 2 big ones, and camp grounds. They even have valet camping (you can rent their tent and they will set it up, and build your fire.

I know cottaging it is such a Canadian term, Sheeza and my sis-in-law Rizwana can appreciate it, being Canadians. But we had a blast this Memorial Day weekend.

Deen took off crawling for real, was introduced to a really big body of water, and his cousins. Safah got to see her MD girl cousins with her cousins from NC, and they all played well together (sometimes...the typical, I am not your best friend right now sort of thing.) I keep telling all of them, you are cousins that is better than best friends. But 5 little girls cannot be told anything.

We swam, played volleyball, fished, grilled out, cooked in (desi style and American food) had bonfires, smoked hooka--well not everyone!

The cabin slept 5 families, so we had like 10 adults and 10 kids...a good number. Whose up for a fall cottage trip? We can rent the cottage that sleeps 24!!

Cottaging -- you're right -- it's a very canadian term. Do you know what else it means? as a slang term?

Look it up...you'll get a good laugh...if you type in "cottaging" in google search, it should be the first result.
