It’s All Maya!

Who hasn’t had a long, busy day - you’re stuck in traffic, just wanting to get home.  And then you see it! You’re reminded that you are, afterall, in the City of Love and it brings a smile to your face the rest of the way home!

Pope Benedict XVI’s visit to the US is causing quite a fashion stir because of his snazzy red Prada shoes, but for me it’s just another reminder of the time that two of the most beloved and religious leaders in the world came to see me!  One morning I opened my window and stepped out […]

The title says it all!  I’m an independent voter, but I don’t like any of the candidates running for President!  I hate to think that the US will be run by any of them.  If McCain would bend a little and not carry on with the mess that Bush got us into, I would consider […]

Do you ever wonder what happened to your other sock? You take your clothes out of the dryer and fold them. Then you start matching you socks, and lo and behold, one of your socks has become a […]

Funny how you can write a post about something that you think is not going to interest anyone and then it becomes your most popular post; if comments are any indication.  The day I wrote about Lancel, I just couldn’t think of anything to write about and then I saw my purse there as I […]
