Valentines day is in 10 days…are you ready? You can start at Zappos.

Put on your party dress and highest heels…it’s New Year’s Eve!
Hoping you are taking a bit of downtime now that the holidays are near (and you’re probably off work tomorrow.) Take some time to have fun with friends and family tonight, make some cheese fondue and pop a classic DVD in…like Dazed and Confused. Kevin Pickford (Shawn Andrews) should be enough to keep your attention for days! He’s kept my attention since 1993. Meow!

It’s late September and summer is feeling like it’s over. I had such a great spring/summer growing season (see picture) with flowers, herbs, vegetables, peppers, etc. May is such a perfect time to find the greenest of greens in nature. But fall definitely has its perks, too…especially for colors. Fall definitely has its advantages in the style department…think hats, boots, beautiful soft sweaters and scarves. Yum!
Goodbye to summer.
Happy 4th of July. Make the extra effort to make it sensational. I’ll be sharing more pictures and video tomorrow from my celebration.
For a quick dessert, dip (rinsed and patted dry) strawberries into melted white chocolate. I made this dessert tonight, start to finish, in five minutes. The white stars are simply white chocolate molded in silicone star molds. This will be perfect for my 4th of July picnic block party (the white chocolate stars colored blue), for a patriotic-looking display. A Silpat is an extremely useful tool for this project.
Memorial Day 2009: Paying respect to fallen soldiers and those who have served our country.
Did you know about these National Observances today, May 13th?
National Night Shift Workers Day: They won’t be waking up and reading this until at least 2 p.m.
Receptionist’s Day: Compliment your receptionist today, maybe make her a cup of coffee?
Root Canal Appreciation Day: There’s absolutely nothing I can appreciate about this cause. I’m sure it means a lot to all the dentists out there, however.
National Fruit Cocktail Day: Who knew there was a National Fruit Cocktail Day? This is one in which we can all participate! I recommend fruit cocktail with double cherries.
