My mom is moving. After 9 years in her current condo, she’s decided its time to leave the island and come to the main land. Why? To be closer she says…this bothers me for the wrong reasons. Where am I suppose to beach?! Honestly… Well the only fun thing about this is furniture shopping. She’s…

Green with Envy
Green with Envy… I love clothes as you know. I also like the funny things in life… so here is a play on words. Now I have to get back to watching Olympics and American Idol…
Martes, Tuesday, Mardi…
So as I said, I hadn’t been sketching. Here are a few more I did last night and tonight. I am quite the fan of this look I went with. All from Target with a few key pieces from my jewelry collection. Today I was at it again, mixes a great Target find with pieces…
Nautical Flags
It’s been a heavy few days. Tonight I sketched for the first time since last Wednesday. I hope you enjoy my nautical flags. I want to start doing nautical initial/monogram paintings for people…what do you think?
Ash Wednesday–the deprivation begins…
Lent Day 1: No Diet Coke (no soda at all)…no red meat…no shopping for myself. Yes, I said it…no shopping for myself. OMG! How will I go without shopping for myself? This is going to be hard! So far so good—I have had cravings for my fave soda—but have stayed strong. I think the wine…
Mardi Gras
I’ve never been to Mardi Gras in New Orleans. …but every year I do wear some purple, green and yellow. Here is my ensemble for this year. The day was busy with work, and then after that I went with the family to St. Philip’s for the annual Pancake Dinner and Jazz service. It was…

This blue framed beauty (exceptionally priced) is from, Bailey Jack . Bailey was such a nice…
Lovely Weekend
I adore Valentine’s Day. I think it’s all the pink, red, hearts and chocolate. However, I’ve never done anything cliche on Valentine’s Day (ok, one thing but I can’t write about it here)…the dinners out, the flowers…never done that. What I have done…wear lots of red and pink, get chocolate for friends…and those great little…
OLYMPICS!!
I love the Olympics. There’s nothing like them…and every 2 years for 14 days, I am a happy girl! Tonight I stayed home (since I’m not feeling 100%) and watched the opening ceremonies. It was great, we ordered food and had a comical play by play. I have to say I wasn’t that impressed with…
Subha’s Pie
So a few months ago– I did a give-away. The holidays and life got in the way of my finishing it. I started it up a couple of days ago—and here is the progress on Subha’s Pie. It should be done before the weekend is over. Subha, by the way, has been a friend since…
