Here is part three of my review of “Lessons From Madame Chic”. We’ve been out of town and it threw off my intended schedule for blog posts. Better late than never, though. Right? LESSONS FROM MADAME CHIC: PART 3 Part 3: How to Live Well This was my favorite section of the book. Taking care…
Create a Beautiful Life: Afternoon Tea Ritual
Part of my ongoing project for “creating a beautiful life” includes an afternoon tea ritual.

Menu Monday ~ June 27, 2016
We’re back! We spent a few days in California and then drove a car back for my parents. We had some good times but I’m so happy to be home. Unfortunately David leaves tomorrow for a business trip and won’t return until Friday. I’ll miss him but I’ve got a busy week ahead so at…

Creamy Iced Coffee Cocktail
Is it too hot for coffee but you still want that caffeine boost? Iced coffee to the rescue! Mix up a big batch of cold brewed coffee and store it in the refrigerator where it will keep for 2 to 4 weeks (although it’s doubtful it will last that long!). And if you want to…
Summer Television
I virtually never watch daytime TV except on some rare occasions in hotel rooms. Each time I am reminded of why I don’t bother at home – there is nothing worth watching. In a way I find that rather sad as I have fond childhood memories of watching morning television during the summer when school…
