Spring Break Travel: Titanic Museum Attraction
You know I love the Smoky Mountains! I think I have blogged about the East Tennessee area at least a dozen times. In 2012 I was fortunate enough to travel to Pigeon Forge two separate times and visit one of Pigeon Forge's newer attractions: Titanic Museum Attraction. One thing I love about the area is that there are so many reasons to return to the Smoky Mountain region for years to come. I personally I visited the area 10 times & I have yet to grow tired of the area. Titanic Museum & Attraction Continue Reading

International Delight Light Iced Coffee-Delightfully Cafe’ Flan Recipe #LightIcedCoffee
I'm a huge coffee nut. I normally drink anywhere from 1-3 cups a day. Frappes, Cappuccinos, regular cup of Joe, I like them all. During the work week I normally have about 30 minutes to sit a drink a cup of coffee in peace before I head on over to work. To me, it is my few minutes of complete sanity.

A Mother’s Reflection: A Silent Tree
Today was a rare day off of work during the week. I sat outside under one of our patio areas and noticed something. Our big beautiful backyard tree seems so sad to me. With almost 2 acres of land, I noticed this tree today. I can see this tree from my kitchen window & our dining room area. Years ago I would leave the backdoor open and hear the giggling of 2 small children under that same tree. Once upon a time, that same tree was a pivotal area on our property. It was the central hub for many Continue Reading

The Niche Mommy Conference: Audubon Zoo, New Orleans #Nola
Going to the Niche Mommy Conference was one of the best blogging decision I made. Aside from forming new friendships and the blogging tools & techniques I learned at the event, I enjoyed other bloggers having the full New Orleans Experience. The architecture, the music, and of course the food!! I did not meet once person that was experiencing a bad time in New Orleans. In fact, I was full of pride when many bloggers would tell me how much they were enjoying what New Orleans had to offer Continue Reading
