Greetings…from my new reality….where the sun always shines, the birds are chirping…there is no snow in the forecast…ever….and the cherry blossoms are starting to bloom.

Is that classic song from the beloved “Annie” broadway production or movie now stuck in your mind? You can thank me later. Cause how can you not have an extra hop in your step without one of the songs from “Annie” running through your head?
I mean really. If you don’t LOVE “Annie” then you probably [...]

As a kid, we lived in England for several years and every year during Christmas my parents would load all four of us up in the car and head off to the Pantomime. If you haven’t ever been to a British Pantomime, then you are really missing out. The Brit’s have that unique sense of [...]

We headed over to Homestead Gardens in Poolesville, MD (not to be confused with the other Homestead Gardens in Davidsonville, MD) two weeks ago for some apple picking. After a lovely drive up River Road and over a one-lane country bridge, we arrived at the farm – a bucolic setting, to say the least. The red barns, [...]
