I’ve talked about Cask & Larder before. It’s one of our favorite restaurants in Orlando. Especially for brunch. This weekend I took my birthday boy out for a Sunday brunch at our favorite spot and it didn’t disappoint! We started with drinks, just because. I had the Whiskey Smash (bourbon, muddled mint, oranges, bubbles), and…
I was recently asked by someone I greatly respect to give them my top 5 social media tips. I was surprised by the question, as I assume it’s common sense. But after really thinking about it, I think most people just don’t have time or energy to really think it through. I want to share…

I’m not really a ‘selfie’ person. Especially when it comes to full-body selfie’s. But today I couldn’t resist. Try dressing for 30 degree weather when you live in Florida. It’s not fun. I spent an hour last night searching for my serious winter jacket. I only get to wear it twice a year. So where…

This blog was viewed about 36,000 times in 2013. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 13 sold-out performances for that many…
