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

Good Morning Darlings!
It has been quite a sweltering week here in Atlanta. With temps topping 100F, we are just about to melt.
I am so ready to enjoy the weekend and beat the heat.
Some icy ideas inside

Last night was a doozy. Fondue and wine. Lots of luscious wine. 10 of us got together for an evening of gooey excess.
But I am paying for it today.
This turned into...

An evening of leis and mai tais last night in the kitschy confines of Trader Vic’s with a marvelous group of girly girls has me feeling particularly girly today.
So I thought I would introduce some bloggers you may or may not know yet.
The girliest of the bunch.
Frills, Parties and More inside!

Wow, our July 4th weekend was chock full of eating. Specifically lots of hot dogs, burgers and grilled chicken. And lemon bars. There were chips, beer margaritas, cuba libres, pasta salad, dips, and more chips.
Did I mention beer margaritas and lemon bars? I ate a lot of those.
How can I remedy all those treats?

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?
