This past Saturday was an absolute perfect day, so, of course, me and my honey headed out on one of our famous “day-trips” only this one was outside of our normal Hudson Valley adventures.
I’ve been trying for the last two years to get roe for my father when the shad is running but haven’t had [...]

The weather was absolutely spectacular this past weekend! On Saturday afternoon we couldn’t wait to jump in the car and head out on one of our famous “day-trips”! This time we headed south (shh, we ventured outside of the Hudson Valley, LOL) and went to the beautiful Brooklyn Botanic Gardens.
On one hand, we were amazed [...]

As February draws to its end, I look back and can’t believe the month is over already. I know it is the shortest month but golly, seems like it flew by and at the end of the month the Hudson Valley saw one of its biggest snow storms in years!

The VFD celebrated 80th birthday last year! The VFD is a volunteer fire [...]

It seems appropriate to take some time to reflect on the year which is about to come to an end, 2009. For me, reflecting back over the years brings smiles to my face J and joy in my heart for I was blessed with a wonderful year!
The year was filled with great times spent [...]

I can’t believe it is Christmas and 2009 will be coming to an end. As my “honey” says, we had an “action packed-fun filled” summer filled with absolutely “wonderful” day-trips, long weekends and fabulous waterfront dining excersions!
Our house is decorated for Christmas, the gifts are purchased and wrapped, the cards are written and mailed, the [...]

My welcome stepping stone and imagine rock are nestled in my garden as you approach my front door. I live in a condominium so gardening space is limited so I love tucking stepping stones and/or ornamental objects where ever possible.
For me I find peace in my garden. While I am certainly not an expert gardener [...]

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing Andrea Bocelli perform at Madison Square in NYC this past week!
We started the evening with dinner at Hill Country BBQ at 30 West 26th Street. Best BBQ in NY – NY Magazine’s 2008 Best of NY.
For some reason my inside pictures didn’t really turn out too well but hopefully [...]

How exciting is this new tool for turning your blog into a book! Blog2Print does just that! My blog is too new and certainly not worthy of going to print just yet but I couldn’t resist sharing this with those of you that are much more expierenced and blogging longer than I.
I would love to [...]

Darn, my honey and I were just in Hunter Mountain last weekend. Sounds like this year’s Mountain Jam V is going to be a great event! While we could consider drive up on Saturday but we would have to drive back as my honey has to work bright & early on Sunday morning. For those of [...]
