Disclosure: For those of you that come here looking to drool over the food…sorry. I know, four days in NYC and no food shots? That was not the focus of the weekend. We did have a great meal and visit with Jennifer and Quinn McHenry at Nizza. Check out the Nizza website and Jennifer’s blog…

Thumbtack
Hey friends, I’ve found a really cool website called Thumbtack. It’s like a bulletin board. If you need a service you create a post for it. Then Thumbtack links you to the service providers in your area. It’s like Pinterest but for actual services instead of ideas only. Take a look at my profile…Signature Designs,…
Long Time
MERCY!!! I can’t believe it’s been over a month since we were together. I’ve realized having a blog should really be a full-time job. I’ve had lots to talk about and lots of photos to share but finding the time…there’s the challenge. I do have some things to share and you can look forward to…
BLESSED!!!
Sometimes the universe says no and often it says maybe. However, when the universe says, yes there’s that moment of balance and serenity that lets us know the intonation of life is pitch perfect. The universe has been playing a melodious composition for us. Our sweet friend Teresa did a fabulous birthday dinner for Brandt….
Big D and OK
Last weekend we went to Dallas for a regional color guard competition. Saturday was Brandt’s birthday so we extended the trip a bit and visited a sweet cousin in Oklahoma. Having visited Texas twice in the last month I realize that I enjoy visiting but it’s just not a place I would enjoy calling home….
Spring Forward!!!
Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting: The Soul that rises with us, our life’s star, Hath had elsewhere its setting, And cometh from afar: Not in entire forgetfulness, And not in utter nakedness, But trailing clouds of glory do we come From God, who is our home: The year was 1992. I…
Patience…
Our friends in East Tennessee wonder if they will ever see the ground again. We finally saw sun this week and it was a glorious sight, indeed. Do you think we will ever see Spring? From what I see on social media everyone’s patience is wearing thin. Patience is a learned behavior, you know. Whether…
Eat, Drink, Repeat!!!
So, after you read this you will say, “didn’t you do anything except eat and drink”. So, I’m telling you now…emphatically…NO!!! We arrived at Hotel Le Pavillon early evening…Hotwire…$131…thank you. We found our room and almost immediately departed for Deanies. Several years ago we had oysters at Deanies and they remain our standard in Fried…
Heart of my Heart
I know I’ve been away for a while. Some of you have checked on me through other media sources or friends and I do appreciate the concern. Honestly, after the holidays I needed a break. I did go to AmericasMart in Atlanta in January and sadly had very little to report. I did find some…
Ringing in the New…
I’m just about recovered. No, we are not over-imbibers. Yet, we did see lots of lovely and had many good times during the holidays. Our final soiree was a seven and a half hour open house…MERCY!!! They said the house was lovely but after living in “overdone” for a month I have to admit I…
The House Was Lovely
