Saturday Shoe Crush

I *love* shoes...what woman doesn't? Just wanted to share this *fabulous* pair I just spotted in the new Anthropologie catalog...And of course you need a pretty dress to match!Happy Saturday! xoxo

Food for Thought

I was fortunate enough to have a stunning dinner last weekend. Food so beautifully presented and prepared with love...I had to photograph it. The colors are so gorgeous! This was a delicious crab dip...mmmm..it was *so* tasty that I could have just eaten it with a spoon!

A perfectly cooked turkey! Including all kinds of beautiful vegetables and herbs.

These Brussel sprouts are so perfect that even the anti-brussel sprout kids will want to try them.

And last but certainly the BEST part of the meal, desert. My personal favorite...bread pudding. And let me tell you this was the most fabulous I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Thanks Chef for preparing such a wonderful feast.

Happy New Year

A new year, a new goal to attempt to blog way more often than I currently do. Life has had many twists and turns for me the past 6 months. I have tried to take away the lessons I could from the things happening all around and inside of me. Not without much sorrow and pain. What I found was a strength inside of me that I didn't even know I had. Don't get me wrong, I have always thought of, and referred to myself as a "strong german chick" but this came from deep in my soul.

The photos that I want to share with you today are of my neice. She is a busy girl~~much like her Aunt Becky~~ and she never stops moving. Taking a picture of her and getting it clear is quite a challenge. But, Aunt Bec the yoga teacher, taught her a little something.... I taught her to slow down (if only for a moment) and take a breath. And, as you can see from the "before" and "after" pictures, I think it worked really well!

Happy and Peaceful New Year my dear friends, remember to slow down and take a breath :)
