I love Christmas, so much so that I usually put up two trees in my home every year. The first tree is an artificial tree that I purchased years ago when I was living in an apartment. It isn’t the prettiest tree but it is so nice to put up a tree a few weeks …

Last week my husband and I were in Las Vegas for the second time this year. We are true lovers of Vegas, and it is primarily because of the fantastic food. As there are so many restaurants to choose from, it is hard cramming in all the places we dream of eating in one short …

It has been a while since I did a craft project – not related to a holiday – and it is probably about time that I do one again. This month (since this seems to be an almost monthly occurrence) I thought I would do a little write up on tongue painting with children. No, you …

On a recent trip to Las Vegas with my lovely wife, we decided to stop in at Table 10 for a quick lunch. In all honesty, it was a last moment choice because neither of us could actually say we’re a true fan of Mr. Lagasse, it was just happened to be the most convenient place to …
