Earlier this spring my family traveled to the Verde Valley area of Arizona to ride the Verde Canyon Railroad and visit Montezuma's Castle. For some reason, I forgot to blog about it until I received a few inquiries from readers wanting to know when I would be doing another post featuring historical architecture. Better late than never!

Pure Bliss
I am still recovering from jet lag and sorting through a mountain of laundry but I couldn't wait a moment longer to kick off a week-long series featuring Bohemian Bliss Fest. It was Pure Bliss. Let's begin with all the fabulous fashionistas. Pure Bliss Sweet Jessi stole my heart in her perfectly pink confection. Dazzling Dixie is simply adorable. Both ladies work at Domestic Bliss.

Hummingbird Happiness

I had set out to do a bit of spring cleaning earlier in the week and found a little something that said it would have to wait. Hummingbird Happiness.

A Love Story Set in Stone
It's been awhile since I've done a post on historical architecture. They generally require several hours (sometimes days) of research on my part and I just haven't had the time. But here is A Love Story Set in Stone. In thinking about Valentine's Day I asked myself last week "Are there any buildings that have been built for love alone?" My mind quickly recalled that I had done a thesis paper on such a marvel for a historical architecture class. Interestingly enough, I asked my original ... View the Post
