INSIDE A SUPER CUTE VINTAGE AIRSTREAM TRAILER

Are you going “glamping” this Memorial Day weekend? One of the aspects of my childhood that I enjoyed most was all the camping my family did. My mother loved to camp, my dad not so much. But she managed to drag him along as he complained that he’d had all the camping he’d ever need […]

GRILLED SPINACH PARMESAN PINWHEEL STEAKS

Hi there!  So, I rarely, in fact never do I watch daytime television. But the other day “The Chew” happened to be playing at the salon while I was getting my nails done. They were cooking up what looked like something my carnivore husband would really like: Grilled Pinwheel Steaks. So, I thought I’d try making […]

GIRLFRIENDS ARE THE SPICE OF LIFE

GIRLFRIENDS ARE THE SPICE OF LIFE My birthday was this week. After celebrating a BIG birthday last year I’ve stopped counting the years and really wanted to have a low key celebration this time around.
