Yes, I know once again I have been negligent in my blogging responsibilities. I owe you an update on the Sonoma trip. But I've been soooooo unmotivated to do anything, it's been rainy and cold and yucky and the couch is so cozy and the remote co...

SO – yeah, it’s been a while. Long time no blog. But I have a really good reason. I have a very boring life. Maybe not so much boring as unblogworthy. Do you really want to hear about how I worked all day, came home, made dinner, cleaned up ...

Until then, here's a cute picture of Matt with his dinner at a restaurant in Juno Beach, Florida. He's had to travel for work a couple of times and I think this restaurant is the only reason he's no...

But a new restaurant opened in our neighborhood and it's gotten excellent reviews (The Publican). We love the other 2 restaurants owned by the same ...

I'm convinced you can find anything you want there, eventually. Case in point: when I was in high school I had a pair of little silver bell earrings from Avon. They're the only Christmas jewelry I regularly wore and I loved them ...
