As a child, my family used to travel to Utah to visit my grandma and grandpa Lashlee, where almost every visit we would end up camping for a few days. We would pitch a tent or pull a pop-up camper out into the woods, and me and my cousins would experience nature firsthand while my grandparents would stay in their RV. And believe it or not, those are some of the best memories I have with my grandparents, my parents, and my cousins. We would fish, hike, cookout, and pray it wouldn’t rain on us in the middle of the […]
Man of Style: Tom Hiddleston
My oldest niece, Kyra, is totally in love with Tom Hiddleston. It broke her heart a little when she found out that he was dating Taylor Swift. Now mind you, she likes Taylor Swift, but as she put it, “No. This cannot be happening. This is too much for me to handle. She had Harry Styles, then Calvin Harris, NOW HIM.

Tom Hiddleston is an English actor. […]

Glamour magazine shares some cools details about these rooms. Daily Dose of Design shares […]
Celebrity Dinner Party: SNL Edition
Have you ever been asked this question? “Who would you invite to a dinner party, dead or alive?” I would have dinner parties every weekend – both Friday and Saturday nights – because my guest list is sooooooooo long! Who would be my first guests, you ask? I would have some of my favorite female Saturday Night Live veterans – Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, and Molly Shannon. I have watched SNL for the last 25 years, and there have been some funny women on that late night show. Tina Fey – Sarah Palin and Weekend Update. Amy […]
Wanderlust Wednesday: Travel by Train
Most people cannot afford to travel around the world, flying from one location to another, checking your luggage, handing over your passport, and not to mention, sitting in cramped seats on airlines (hello, we can’t all afford private planes) or getting seasick on a cruise. So why not see the world from a different perspective? By TRAIN! Traveling by train can either be inexpensive or luxurious. If you’re open to not having a set itinerary, then traveling by train may be a great way to see the world, including sites in the USA, Europe, India, or China. So why not […]
