Start Your Spring Cleaning in Your Bedroom
Spring is the time of year when everything is fresh and new. And it's when people are motivated to freshen up their homes. But too often an important room is overlooked because it's not a room everyone sees. But you spend at least every morning and night in your bedroom, so give it top priority.

Mediocre to Masterpiece
These days, thanks to great photo editing apps, anyone can turn their ho-hum snapshots into frame-worthy photos you’ll be proud to hang on your wall. And I’m not talking about Photoshop - to some of us that program looks a little intimidating. There are many apps out there, but for this article I’m going to focus on two editing apps I use on my MacBook Pro to edit photos I took with my Nikon D3200 - a great camera with auto settings for amateurs like me - and my iPhone.

A Girl and her Bug and the Open Road
They all thought I was nuts! A single woman driving across the country by herself in her little VW Bug. But I saw it as the adventure of a lifetime!

It was supposed to be a nice week away for three women and a dog in a beautiful vacation rental in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

But rarely do things go as planned.

Cows are Hams!
It all started with a road trip, my obsession with cow photos. I was driving from NJ to TX to visit a friend and I gave myself four days to get there so I could get off the highway along the way and take in the scenery. It was spring which is a great time to get out in the country with the added bonus of seeing lots of baby animals.

Her Irish Soda Bread Lives On
It starts with flour and baking soda...no, scratch that. It started with a steamer trip across the Atlantic on the RMS Queen Elizabeth. Born in Paisley, Scotland, of Irish decent, she traveled alone at the invitation of relations abroad to make her new home in America.
