A Seriously Charming Tiny Farmhouse
Let’s take a trip down a country road near Round Top, Texas. This lovely home belongs to my dear friend Lisa. She is sister to Leslie, who is such a sweetheart. Leslie owns a charming chapel that I shared on my blog a long time ago. CLICK HERE. UPDATE: Sadly Lisa passed away recently, […]
Under the Tuscan Sun
A little recap of our trip to Italy earlier this year. For a few glorious days I lived in Tuscany. After the cold, damp weather in Paris, the sun was a welcome sight. I could see why all of the city dwellers came down here for a slice of heaven. As my favorite shop owner […]
My Paris Apartment
I don’t get out much. I’m on the computer, with clients, or behind a camera most of the day. To celebrate my daughter’s graduation and a big anniversary, I decided to leave my little cocoon. I left my city, my state, my country, and more importantly the ground for a trip to Paris. This was […]

Her B&B, called The Prairie, is a delightful place, and I had the pleasure of a […]
Silver with a Past
Yes, I have been saying tarnished silver is in, but I think some of you didn’t believe me. Well, I took the advice of Carolyn at Leftovers (Click here) and got a tarnished piece of silver, that I don’t plan to polish. (Don’t tell my mother-in-law!!) I admit that I will still be polishing some of my […]
