For me to say WHAT a week? is an understatement.... A recap of the last 7 days... and I'm outa breath, so HERE. WE. GO. 1. Take a look what happened to me... JACKPOT! ... enough said! 2.

I was too busy hustling around to take pics of them, but before they all showed up, I did snap a shot of the … [Read more...]
A Piece of Peace.
Amongst the chaos lies a little peace. How do we find a PIECE of PEACE? Why, we make ourselves feel like a princess, of course! I know I love to feel like a princess... who doesn't? My third child (seen in these photos) has it rough.... she spends most of her time napping and grooming herself. After all, isn't that what MOST princesses should be doing (other than shopping?) About to hit some busy busy days... all good … [Read more...]

FFF Finally
FFF = Five For Friday. Had to change things up a bit and keep everyone on their toes {{wink!}} So what's on my mind this Friday? 1. True Confessions. I swore I wouldn't be a "gamer".

Well, I'm now ONE of those people and have caught myself addicted to … [Read more...]
Here I Go Again
I had so much fun doing my fashion post yesterday that I said to myself, let's do this AGAIN. Several reasons to be quite honest. 1. I had FUN. This is SO me.

Old man winter peeked his head into our city ONE last time before spring maybe, I had to use this opportunity to pull out some fur loveliness.

This is my first.
So here is my first. My first ever true "fashion" post I'm sharing. Sure, I take tons of selfies, but never have done this.

Remember this past December... when Neiman Marcus and Target had this huge collaboration with all these fab designers? Where it got lots of … [Read more...]

Healthy Fancy Snack
When I'm trying to be "health-concious" (that's a nice way of saying "on a diet" but I hate that phrase), it always makes me feel better mentally when I'm not "depriving" myself of goodness. I want to eat fancy foods, I want foods that don't taste like cardboard, I want foods with flavor and "curb appeal" if you will. Well, being the salt person that I am, and hors d'oeuvers person that I love, I whipped up this little number just for myself … [Read more...]
