Cruising The Net

Good Morning Darlings!

Getting this etiquette business off the ground is exciting and exhausting all at the same time.

Whatever shall I make for dinner?

I found some good ideas!

Snakes, alligators, turtles, herons, otters – what could they have to do with The Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes, Orlando?

Curious? Come on in.

As we continue our week of Ritz-Carlton magic, we arrive in Orlando at The Ritz-Carlton, Grande Lakes.

My Lake Crush

Tuesday, August 9th, 2011

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?

Feeling Bubbly

Good Morning Darlings!

Last week was a whirlwind of Ritz-Carlton pampering. It was divine. But I missed you!

I have a plethora of treats to share with you this week.

What’s New?

Picnic Time!

Thursday, August 4th, 2011

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?
