Bobby Flay is a well know Chef from the Food Network. I watch him on show “Worst Cook in America”. I love his sarcastic personality and the way he interacts with the contestants. So I was excited to try Mesa Grill located in my hotel, Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. Of course, I started with […]
Did Caesar Live Here?
I couldn’t help but think of this when we arrived at our hotel in Las Vegas. We were staying at Caesar’s Palace after all…it makes sense that he would live there. 🙂 And he was welcoming us as we entered the casino area. He’s saying, “This way to check in.” Does anyone know why there […]
Flying to Las Vegas
Strange as it may seem, I am a nervous flyer. I know that doesn’t really fit with being a travel blogger. But ever since I became a Mom, I have been more nervous about my safety. Anyway, if I can snag a window seat it helps take my mind off of my nervousness. Was this […]
Giant Hamburgers & Giant Antiques
You might remember that I have family in Arkansas. Considering that it has snowed eight inches today where I live and it is 70 degrees in Arkansas right now, I’m feeling rather homesick. So I thought it would be fun to write about a previous Arkansas trip. Last August I spent a long weekend visiting […]
Oprah and me!
Guess where I am? Harpo Studios in Chicago! Not the normal entrance for people going to see a show, but the special entrance for people who work there or guests coming for a special reason. I was the latter. Recently I was contacted by OWN for a special project. I happened to be heading to […]
A TRU Experience
I surprised my husband with dinner at TRU for his birthday this year. It was quite the amazing experience! Can’t wait to share it with you. As you can see above, it is an eleven course menu with an option of getting only seven courses. Those are the ones with the little leaf next to […]
That’s a Wrap (on Disney)
I’ve finally come to the end of my Disney posts. I guess when you take a 1000 pictures, you have a lot of things to blog about. Anyway, I hope you have enjoyed reading about our trip to Disney. I thought I would wrap it up for you with some organization of all the posts. […]
Disney Shopping
Something strange happens to me at Disney World. I get all Disney crazy and want to buy things that, if I saw at the mall, would not make my radar. Why is that? There are some things that I truly want and will use and enjoy, but there are some that are just ridiculous. For […]
Our Last Day at Disney
I am usually sad on my last day of vacation, because I never want them to end. Today’s post follows my last day at Disney World. My in-laws had gone home and my kids wanted to sleep in, so I headed off to Epcot all by myself. To be honest, I was a little sad […]
Beaches and Cream
Have you ever heard a lot about a restaurant and you can’t wait to try it, but when you finally get there…it just isn’t as good as you thought it would be? That’s how I felt about Disney’s Beaches and Cream Soda Shop. Don’t get me wrong, it was good, but I had heard great […]
Lights, Animals and Margaritas
Daisy Duck, along with Huey, Louie and Dewey are off to explore. I was also exploring when I found them at Animal Kingdom. That is where we started our seventh day at Disney World. My son has always loved animals. Ever since our first trip to Disney MANY years ago, the Kilimanjaro Safari Ride has […]
Welcome to Hollywood (Studios, that is)
We spent the entire 6th day of our Disney trip at Hollywood Studios. Although I did have the park hopper passes, I didn’t use them every day of the trip. Some of our favorite things are at this park, so it was easy to spend the entire day there. Since my in-laws were along, we […]
