Good Morning Darlings!
The Fourth of July is upon us! What are your plans?
Got some grilling going on? You will want to read this.

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!
What’s with the post title today? Wasn’t Father’s Day last Sunday?
Am I just a day late and a dollar short?

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?

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!
When Caren West calls (or emails), I listen. As one of Atlanta’s premiere PR mavericks, her clients are all incredibly fab.
Then she asked me to review The Real Chow Baby. What? Isn’t that like a fast food place? Really, Caren?
Really?

Good Morning Darlings!
Oh, you know how we are here in the south. We have to make sure everyone is fed. And fed well.
One night not so long ago, we had our dear friend, Johnny P. over for supper. I made meatloaf. To feed about 20. You never know how hungry men will be. Or who might stop by.
Did we eat it all?

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!
