an experiment in fashion, beauty and being married to richie coldcuts
I've been told that I do. But only by Richie Coldcuts. And he can be so devilish that he may have just said that to bug me. It's decidedly un-feminine. Another one of those things that if a guy does it, it just makes him manly, but if a woman does it, you think 'woof'!... Continue Reading →
A funny thing happened yesterday. I gave men the 'day off' and posted about hairdo's, skin care, fashion and jewelry. And what do you think happened? I got tons of feedback from men! Comments, re-Tweets, Likes, what have you. Which really got me thinking. Did they all read the blog because there are more metro-sexuals... Continue Reading →
I have written about a lot of the important aspects of my life: hubby, hobbies, kids, grandkids, interests, lifestyle. Now it's time to acknowledge my age/gender demographic and share some thoughts and habits around that. I'm reserving Wednesdays for my fellow sisterhood. So all you men out there, who have been relating to my posts... Continue Reading →
I am a Florida girl. Other than college, I've lived my entire life in Florida. I love the warm lifestyle, but I HATE sand. From the first time going over Rickenbacker Causeway to the beach with my family, I've hated sand. I would walk very gingerly in my flip flops right down to the water,... Continue Reading →
Well, not really. Just married to a proud Italian. And -- total transparency -- his mom's Irish, but Richie Coldcuts only claims that side on St. Patty's day. Every other day of the year, he's Italian! And that comes with (ahem) a little baggage. Like, when we're watching a cooking show (happens a lot),... Continue Reading →
I would probably never refer to myself as a sports fan. I do not watch or follow a lot of sports. But I do like football, and I LOVE college football. And more especially I like following the SEC (College football's Southeastern Conference) and other big conferences. Which brings up my personal tale of football... Continue Reading →
I posted earlier that one of my hobbies is silk ribbon embroidery -- it's fancy! But I also just plain sew -- with a sewing machine. Growing up, my mother made all of our clothes-even for my brothers. When I was around nine, I insisted that she teach me how to sew so that I could... Continue Reading →
Bet this title has you wondering, no? Well in this case, high refers to high-rise, as in the tall building we live in. I grew up in suburbia; it was all I knew. I married and raised children in a nondescript suburb nestled among cul-de-sacs, school zones, bike paths and trails. I actually felt sorry... Continue Reading →
Richie coldcuts and I are cruisers. Me more than him -- he humors me. But we've been on a lot of cruises. There are so many stories to share, hence the title of this article (more versions to come!). Last year, we cruised from San Francisco to Fort Lauderdale. The highlight of the cruise was... Continue Reading →
Yes, it's true - - - we're scooters. Which is to say we have scooters (think Vespa) and we tool around the 'burg on weekends. Downtown St. Pete is way cool, way fun, and usually way crowded. But richie coldcuts and I hop on the 'scoots' and it's the perfect way to check out what's... Continue Reading →
