What I Wore and Blog Hop Co-Host
December 2, 2014 By
A very warm day outdoors and a very small kitchen indoors on Thanksgiving Day meant what I wore would need to be something cool! AND comfortable. For the “cool” part, I selected a short-sleeved animal print top and a fun faux leather skirt. For the “comfortable” part, I dismissed the idea of wearing ankle booties with heals for my good ole black cowgirl boots. Oh, how I’ve missed them! My daughter in law, Shandi, pinned my hair back and {Read More}

These are the days those of us in the CA desert live for! While most of the country is suffering through record cold temperatures, we are enjoying absolutely beautiful 75-80 degree days and cool nights.

Casual Camo
November 5, 2014 By
It finally happened! It was cool enough this weekend to break out a long-sleeved shirt. I thought this day would never come! I opted for a casual camo look as we dined and shopped along El Paseo with friends. I LOVE mixing patterns, so I grabbed a leopard headband. Camo and leopard is one of my favorite combos! As you may know, “Fifty, Not Frumpy” is my motto. Please, Lord, never let me be frumpy! My pals Gina and Renee {Read More}
Black and Gold on El Paseo
October 31, 2014 By
Our dear friends from San Antonio arrived yesterday, and we celebrated our reunion at Tommy Bahama’s Restaurant. My besties and I had lots of silly fun with this black and gold on El Paseo photoshoot… with my NEW CAMERA! I have so much to learn but we gave it a test drive. My photographers, Renee and Gina, did a great job! El Paseo, known as the Rodeo Drive of the desert, is a beautiful street of amazing shops and {Read More}
