Metronomical tapping quietly drums away on the weathered, wet deck outside my window. I focus my eyes ahead of me trying hard to ignore the wall to wall windows surrounding me – I chose my beau...
These sweet, orange and cinnamon honey buns are perfect for dessert or breakfast and are filled with orange, cinnamon and honey flavor.

Exploding flames of color and flash litter the smokey sky. Technicolor lighthouses guide in the new year. Bubbly drinks are poured back on earth. Sips are taken and cigars are lit. A cute couple danc...
My curious, gold-rimmed hazel eyes dance about the barely green landscape hoping to catch a dragonfly as it bumbles about lone flowers and swaths of grass. Greens are traded for tall brown pillars as...
Sparkling white lights are carefully constructed into beautiful bokeh orbs as families are lined up in front of the tree. Plates are scraped clean and loaded up again with seconds. Dessert is cut int...
