Big Wheel Keep On Turning- Steamboat Natchez #NOLA
New Orleans is one of those cities that you must come to visit at least once in your life. I find that once you visit, you will always have a sweet spot for the city and return whenever possible. One thing that I love about living right outside the New Orleans area is that my family gets the best of both worlds. We live in a small town (actually, outside "town limits") but live just a short drive away from everything that New Orleans can offer so many tourist. Memorial Day weekend, my Continue Reading

What’s Cooking? Enjoy a Virtual Food Crawl #InDestin
I have to admit that one of my favorite parts about traveling is the food. Not only am I excited that I don't have to cook for my loved ones but that I can enjoy local cuisine not available in my own hometown. For me, one of the highlights to staying at The Emerald Grande at HarborWalk Village in Destin, Florida is that they have a full array of restaurants just steps from the nearest elevator.

Road Tripping through Northwest Arkansas #SoFabCon
I recently returned from a Social Shopper Media Conference called SoFabCon in Bentonville, Arkansas. Since I am about 10 hours away from Bentonville, Arkansas we decided driving from the New Orleans area would be cost efficient. Traveling to Arkansas we encountered heavy rain, wind and the probability of snow so we truly couldn't enjoy it's beauty. But when returning to New Orleans, we saw Arkansas through a whole new light. Isn't the location beautiful? I wish we would have had an Continue Reading

Being a blogger, I sometimes have to travel out of state without my family.

As connected as I may be to my mobile device, my entire family isn't as connected do Continue Reading
