Good Morning Darlings!
Snakes, alligators, turtles, herons, otters – what could they have to do with The Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes, Orlando?
Curious? Come on in.

Good Morning Darlings!
It is no secret that I am totally enamored of The Ritz-Carlton. And I promise, it is not the extravagant crystal chandeliers, the winding staircases or even the best spas in the world. It is the people of the Ritz that bowl me over every time.
Eric and I stayed one night recently at The Ritz-Carlton, Reynolds Plantation. This property is special to us because it was our first Ritz-Carlton. Just one year ago we were welcomed with open arms as I entered to write a story about this fabulous luxe lodge on sparkling Lake Oconee.
What’s new since last year?
Care to join me for dinner?

Good Morning Darlings!
Holly and I are now making our way back to Atlanta from Orlando. More twizzlers and diet cokes. And some more Bono and the Edge.
Maybe we should pack a picnic basket. Doesn’t that sound lovely?
What’s in your picnic basket?

Good Morning Darlings!
Oh, how I love The Ritz-Carlton. I know that seems like a no-brainer, but they are always giving me new ways to love them.
I recently had one of those days.
What’s new to love?

Good Morning Darlings!
Over 10 years ago, Eric and I said “I do” and then jetted off to honeymoon in Italy.
Ahh, Italy.
What could stir those memories again?

Good Morning Darlings!
I am blessed with ridiculously good fortune. Or maybe it’s because of my pollyanna attitude that I see my life through rose colored glasses. Either way. Amazing experiences happen to me a lot.
One of those times happened last week in an invitation from Miss Tinsley to attend a Tinsley Tasting at Antico Pizza.
But this was not a pizza dinner. Oh no. So much more.
What happened that afternoon at Antico?
