Bed and Breakfast Getaway

I occasionally like to get away to a nearby bed and breakfast inn. Relaxing, cozy. Check this one out, very nice.

The entrance or entryway to your home makes a lasting impression. Check these out. Very nice.

Sade - Timeless Music, Ageless Beauty

Sade was an extremely popular songstress some years ago. Thrilled to see her return. Still gorgeous, with those sultry vocals. The first performance (The Sweetest Taboo) is from her more popular days. The second one (No Ordinary Love) is more recent. As a 50+ vocal artist, she still has that amazing presence and talent.

Small Kitchens - Big Ideas

The kitchen in my home is fairly compact, long and narrow. It works well for me. And there's so much, decorating-wise, that can be done to personalize and "enlarge" a smaller space. Take a look at these links for some great kitchen designs.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I enjoyed mine, spending time with family. My homemade sweet potato pie was extra good. And my huge roasted turkey was moist and delicious. I'll be eating turkey sandwiches into the new year!

I have some exciting plans for the rest of this year's holidays. And so looking forward to the new year. Bring it on!
