Day Dreaming...




Day Dreaming of moving to the "Oldest City in the Nation" next week. Daydreaming of going to the beach with a big brimmed hat, cold beverage, and a good book. Daydreaming of cruising around downtown on the brick streets atop my single-speed. Its gonna be a great summer. What are your summer plans?

Where would you go Or where WILL you go?

Happy Camping and Enjoy your national treasures!

Welcoming the Weekend






Finally the weekend is here and I am day dreaming of the approaching summer when I can leave town for a few months and R-E-L-A-X! The boy and I aren't able to steal away very often due to my work obligations and his baseball schedule, but every once in awhile we will take a drive to his hometown of St. Augustine, FL for a mini break away from stress and burdens. Do you have a town or place you vacate to escape from day-to-day life for awhile?

A few of my favorite places to visit when I am in "the Aug": -San Sebastian Winery for a glass of local spirits and a spectacular view -The Columbia Restaurant for amazing Spanish cuisine -And absolutely no weekend visit is complete without going to the beach with friends on Sunday w/ a bottle of RUM in tow then ending the day with the festivities of Reggae Sunday at the Conch House
Have you had the pleasure of visiting the oldest city in the nation?

Linking Party

Dedication is not my middle name, but I do so love reading blog after blog after blog. I like to considers someone's blog as the sugar and spice of the inter-workings of my fellow bloggers. And, honestly, I am inspired by each blog I come across. One of my absolute faves is Fabulous K. I read her blog everyday, and she is absolutely fabulous. Her post today is about a Linking Party, a group of bloggers getting together and agreeing to visit new blogs and encourage each other by leaving comments on each others posts! This is my first time participating, but I am super excited!
So.... Welcome to my new readers and it is so nice to meet you!
Please leave a comment and maybe some constructive criticism would be fantastic!


Ciao!

Eco-luxury




Hello readers, if you're out there! I want to tell you about my new beauty obsession! Winks by Georgie Beauty. Winks by Georgie is a false eyelash collection featuring three styles to wear from morning latte to midnight soirĂ©e. All false eyelashes are 100% natural and weightlessly voluminous. It’s the perfect eye makeup. Imagine your favorite mascara … x 10! I have always been a fan of false eyelashes, my girlfriends in college can attest to that, but I stop hitting the bar scene and settled into a look that left much to be desired. What happened to the sexy femme fatale days of my early twenties?
Well even though my club hopping days are behind me, I still have the desire to feel put together when we go out with friends, so I wear my Winks! My Winks help me look READY! They take little to no time to apply and they stay on all evening.
A friend of mine developed these little beauties and she should be so proud of what she has created! The best part is that they not only make you look fabulous, they are earth friendly as well.
"For us, a new generation means a new genre of beauty: eco-luxury. Georgie believes that true luxury is the fusion of art and nature, the freedom to indulge thoughtfully every day. We’re working to build a new era in beauty that liberates both consumer and environment by delivering the ultimate eco-luxe experience."
They are available online at Neiman Marcus. Check them out, put them on! You will LOVE them!
