Hello from beautiful Scottsdale, AZ! MAY I just say how good it feels to be in warm weather with out a scarf, coating or mittens? I am craving warm sunshine on my pores and skin since early October.

Don’t be concerned though, I’m sure all of those other country will capture up soon. March ‘s almost here, which for me means patio time of year, rooftop pubs, farmer’s markets, biking along Lake Michigan, working outside, berries and ALL THE SMOOTHIES… My love for smoothies continues to be wicked solid since way back thisRead more

My Grandma just so is actually one of the best people in my existence. She’s gracious, warm, funny and lighting up an area with her unique soul.

She also is 80, does Zumba and series dancing, still landscapes at 6am and apparently goes down waterslides encounter first. Gotta like her. My Grandma lived in New Mexico most of her lifestyle; I think she appreciates the dusty, dried out beauty of the desert generally there. Her skin can be golden all year roundRead more

Guess what I did over the weekend? Hopped on a aircraft to AZ to see Tony for Easter! I didn’t really have it all prepared but was getting together with Lee and raised the idea; she told me to just do it now therefore i booked a vacation, borrowed some of her clothing and jetted off! I cannot let you know how incredible it was to see the look on his face. Me being there was completely unexpected.

Here’s a bit more detail on what I was able to pull it off: While driving to his resort from the airport terminal, we chatted on the telephone and I informed him I used to be going out for supper with a sweetheart all the while he was thinking that I was in Minnesota. HeRead more

It’s getting cool outside you men! And I’m sort of excited about it since it means I get to wear all of my cozy clothes, fall boot styles and of course, bake my heart out. I actually can’t wait to check out the apple orchard this year to pick refreshing juicy apples. Tony just got done with baseball and will be staying with me for the next week or so. Hopefully we’ll have time to check out the orchard.

The best apples to treat on are often Honeycrisp and Braeburn because of their sweet, crispy crunch. Nevertheless nothing beats a granny smith with regards to baking. They’re properly tart but still present some sweetness. I can’t wait to bake up popular apple crisp this season (ensure it is!). I’m planning on stocking through toRead more
