Simplicity, Work, and Enjoyment

November 6, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 7 Comments

Simplicity, work, enjoyment

Sometimes the “world is too much with us” and I long for simpler times. And yet I also love modern technology. How does one embrace a simple life in these modern times? How do we achieve balance? I have been blessed with several women in my family to whom I look for guidance in various…

Dee’s Guide to a Perfect Cup of Tea

October 30, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 11 Comments

If you’ve known me for any length of time you know of my obsession passion for tea. From that first taste as a 6 month old when my grandmother gave it to me when I was ill, I’ve been a fan. One of my fondest childhood memories is sipping sweet, milky Lipton’s tea from one…

Dee’s Week in Review

October 10, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

Hello, friends. Here is it…Saturday again already. Where did this week go?? For me it evaporated in a swirl of frenzied activity as I tried to prepare for our trip to New Orleans. I knew that I wouldn’t want to spend my vacation tied to a computer but also didn’t want to leave you without…

French Friday ~ New Orleans

October 9, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

Over 34 years ago David and I took our first trip to New Orleans. It was our honeymoon and I chose the destination because it was within reasonable driving distance and I had a vague notion that there was a French influence in the city. I had taken French in junior high and high school…

My first Tarot card reading

September 29, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

Ever since I decided to be open to new experiences and step outside my comfort zone, I keep being presented with opportunities to do just that. Saturday night a friend hosted a “Tarot Card Soiree” at her home. I’ve never had my cards read before but this seemed like a good opportunity. My friend, Roz,…

Why I’ll never eat escargot again

September 23, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 10 Comments

I’m not naturally adventurous but in recent years I have pushed myself to try new things. Most of the time I am really glad I put myself out there. I’ve become a Nine Inch Nails fan, learned that I adore raw oysters, met lots of fascinating people and expanded my horizons in so many ways….

My first blog conference!

September 22, 2015 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

I’ve been wanting to attend a blog conference ever since I knew such a thing existed. My daughter and I have been talking about this for several years but most conferences are on one of the coasts which would necessitate plane tickets. So when we heard that Blog Elevated would be in Dallas we knew…
