Good Morning Darlings!
Still trying to beat the heat here in Atlanta. Good gracious, it is sultry.
How shall we beat the heat this weekend?

I love the color pink. It is the epitome of being a girl. It is also the official color associated with Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
What’s all the newest in pink?

Good Morning Darlings!
Oh, how I love a good dinner party. I love every aspect of it. The planning, the menu, the cooking, and especially the guest list.
How did this one come together?

Good Morning Darlings!
I might be stretching with the title today, because we are talking about The Ritz-Carlton New Orleans and the divine cuisine there could hardly be called grub, but I knew it would get your attention!
There is still so much summer left to plan your vacation

I love coconuts. Coconut shrimp, pina coladas at the beach and coconut ice cream.
But what is my most favorite coconut dish?

Good Morning Darlings!
Campo Viejo recently contacted me to ask if I would like to participate in a wine tasting. Why, of course I would!
Last night they answered questions in real time while we sipped and ate. Melanie made a perfect roast chicken with roasted potatoes and scrumptious collard greens.
How did they pair?
Join our dinner party!

Good Morning Darlings!
My life is pretty breezy most of the time. I try not to let too many things bother me and when they do, I try to figure out how to best handle it.
When I heard that my precious friend Melanie had lost someone very close to her, it made my heart ache. How do you fix that?
Mellie’s friend Charlane was a marvelous blogger. And although I had never met her, I was moved by her posts. They were all so whimsical and charming. I bet you would love her, too. Take a look at one of her last posts here.
So how do you mend a broken heart?
Giving it a try inside….

You know Eric and I had the best time visiting New York. Our sweet friend, Johnny P., lent us his Brooklyn Heights apartment and upon arrival, saw the most breathtaking view of the Statue of Liberty. Amazing.
I though you all would like to see some photos.
Enjoy!
Visit NYC with me!
