How to make the most of a snow day
We have all been there, snowed in and either frantic about it or loving the fact that there is nowhere to go for at least a 24 hour period and nothing can change that. For me, it’s the latter. Since the weathermen usually can predict the big storms, and also that we always shop and […]
My Motto In Life
What do we expect out of life? What do we want out of life? We are all here for a purpose and it is up to us to define that. I have multiple reasons I believe I have been placed on this earth and live by a certain motto. It is not something I made […]
Our Fears
I am sure that along with about half, if not more of the country, fear has crept into our lives little by little over these past horrific events in Europe and here on our own grounds. It makes us almost speechless and unable to comprehend that a young couple with a new baby would feel […]
Family Traditions
The week of Christmas, our son was able to come home and spend a bit of time with us. It was decided that he would finally learn the recipe for my grandmother’s matzo ball chicken soup. When he arrived and we got all the ingredients out, he was such a good listener and he was very […]
How Was Your Holiday
My day was so perfect on Christmas that I wanted to share. Christmas Eve was spent at my sisters with half of the family and their friends and it was so very relaxing and nice and easy that I felt like sharing. We drove home Christmas Eve and caught some television and a glass of […]
The Gift of Giving
Every year, for as many years as I can remember, my husband and I donate to a few favorite charities so that others can celebrate the holidays even though they may not be able to afford it. We love to see that many people can have a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner and that all the festivities […]
Tis The Season
Another year, another holiday. It fades away and reappears within a blink of the eye or so it seems. We just finished chatting about how we are going to handle Thanksgiving and low and behold here are Christmas and Hanukkah looking us in the eye. Again, we drag out the tree and decorations, menorahs, set it all […]
Something I have always Wanted to Do
We all have a dream, a wish, a goal, or at least I hope we all do. Mine has been fulfilled over and over by reaching out and helping others, but I also love to travel. I have been blessed to be able to have done quite a bit of traveling with my husband over […]
Favorite Movie
I have so many movies that I have enjoyed over the years and some I could re-watch over and over, but my all-time favorite is Titanic. I was scrolling through the channels one day while working on my computer and there it was. It had already begun and they had set sail, but it did […]
France
So happy to have experienced a trip to Paris, France. The experience was surreal from the beginning to end. Visiting the Effiel tower was one of the most amazing things I can say I have ever done. It is hard to describe the feeling when you pull up and begin to head towards the tower. […]
