Over a week ago I shared with you my personal challenge to travel for almost 2 weeks with just a carry on. Here is A Two Week Vacation Wardrobe With Just 12 Pieces. Day one had me traveling across the country with just my carry on and a basket that acted as my “purse” containing my wallet, plane tickets, magazines, a book, healthy snacks and my beloved Canon camera. I wore a sweater as I always get cold on planes, a striped blouse, navy capri’s, as well as easy slip off/on shoes for security. ... View the Post
Fit Friday: An Easy & Yummy Greek Appetizer ~ Tzatziki
As I mentioned on Wednesday we recently hosted a Bon Voyage themed dinner party at our home. A big hit was the tzatziki (pronounced za-zeek-ee).

A Bon Voyage Themed Party
Last Sunday I was on the phone with my good friend Jackie and inquired about when she was expecting the movers. “On Monday” she replied. “What!” I practically shouted. “I know.

I thought of Erma Bombeck and her “If I Had My Life To Live Over” poem which includes ... View the Post

We were headed to the Remnants of the Past show. Remnants of the Past Upon arriving I was filled with giddiness brought on by the creative beauty of the outdoor booths. This lovely gem ...

The San Luis Obispo de Tolosa Mission
I’m in San Luis Obispo this weekend. It’s been quite a few years since I toured the San Luis Obispo mission which was founded by Father Junipero Serra in 1772. The church has an unusual “L” shaped design featuring a short and narrow nave as well as a secondary nave almost the same size on the right side of the altar. The layout of the belfry and vestibule can be found nowhere else among all the other California missions. It is truly a special place. “if I delay, you may know how one ... View the Post
