Time doesn’t take away from friendship, nor does separation… Tennessee Wiliams
I’m happy to say, “I will be back again!” Right now, I’m sitting in our daughter’s dining room overlooking a hillside of the iconic Los Angeles Mexican Fan Palms. Staggering in their majestic 60-80 foot height. We’re perched on an adjacent hillside overlooking Sunset Blvd, here for our semi-annual California trip from Cuenca. And, in…
“Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you’d have preferred to talk.” Anonymous
Many years ago, I would fall asleep listening to a favorite story about Angels. It was, of course, very soothing and fascinating, and it was on a cassette. Another tape I was obsessed with was…
“Real comfort, visual and physical, is vital to every room.” Mark Hampton
I’m always curious about both fashion and home interior trends. It’s a little easier with fashion. A couple of well-thought-out pieces can update your look with little effort. But the home is another canvas that entails a bit more thought. It’s one thing to fold a couple of pieces of clothing…
“Keep reading. It’s one of the most marvelous adventures that anyone can have.” Lloyd Alexander

“Visual storytelling is a Twentieth Century phenomenon.”
The evolution of how we watch has changed so dramatically. Around 2009/2010, my husband ditched our cable company and bought an antenna! I remember saying, in panic mode – “what about HGTV?” His response “You’ll survive!” And I did. Actually, I ended up appreciating the lack of SO MUCH to select from. Like most, we subscribe to what…
“Time is the teacher and love is the reward.” Annabelle Graham
I was talking to a friend the other day about how liquid time is. It sweeps by us with the velocity of a rushing river. We know we are in its path, yet we are always surprised that it has swept us up. It pulls us along in its’ current of expectations…
“The greatest wealth is health…Virgil, Our Mindfull Life
We talk a lot about our exterior selves. Maintaining a healthy appearance. A slim or somewhat slim body. Wearing our sunscreen. Having an awareness of our posture. Standing up straight, shoulders back, stomach in, and having a bounce in our step. All these, combined with a dash of style, are the recipe for making a youthful,…
