If you haven’t guessed by now in reading my blog or following my instagram, I have an insatiable sweet tooth. Visiting Paris with my eleven year old niece, Aubrey, allowed me to indulge a bit more than normal (or at least I felt that I had a good excuse for […]
A special treat when I travel is to indulge in a day spa and the various treatments available such as facials, massage or mani/pedi. When I stayed at the Westin Capetown, I practically swooned in their spa and could have stayed for days in their relaxation room with the heated […]
I hadn’t intended to spend my morning in the cemetery but here I was in Lafayette #1 learning about burial processes, payment upkeep and the politics involved in New Orleans. Signing up for the New Orleans’ Garden District two hour walking tour, I envisioned the grand, romantic homes of the […]
