There is almost so much going on in the New York City Subway.. I am especially a fan of the underground street entertainers and the artwork that adorns the walls of the stations.. I took this yesterday at the Times Square 42nd Street Station….  This is a rhetorical question, no reply necessary… what’s not to [...]

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. How to observe Memorial Day: The “Memorial” in Memorial Day has been ignored by too many of us who are beneficiaries of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice. Often we do not observe the [...]

Catered an Arabian Themed Birthday Party… Initially, I was upset because having to work on Memorial weekend, meant we’d not be able to rest/relax. However, the more my hubby met with the client, the more intrigued I became..  But the deciding factor was learning there would be a CAMEL at the party… Yes Folks, a camel.. [...]

Memorial Weekend – means BBQ and sleepovers at our house. This year however, we have to work, so there won’t be a huge BBQ Event.  Plus we’ve just been so busy over the last few weeks, we’re just looking to relax a bit. Not have to get in the car, not have to deal with [...]

Remember when everyone told you to PAY ATTENTION IN SCHOOL?  and you replied “pfsst, when will I ever use that in life?” Well I paid attention and I remember random facts that I learnt along the way.

Long gone are the days when I can sit and enjoy a plate of French Toast. It seems like I’m always on the GO!!  My kid now skates 3 mornings before school, so that means I grab a coffee from the guy on the corner. Sadly, he now has our coffee and tea ready as [...]

WOO HOO!!! Talk about a great game!!! What a fabulous comeback….. But I expected nothing less.. You see, I’ve never been to a Yankee Game yet where they haven’t win.. Actually, that’s a lie.. They lost one game but that was because Mr Swisher didn’t play.. My family is convinced that i’m good luck and [...]

Have you been told that before?? Not me? I was never a busy body. Infact, I stroll at my own pace.. Taking in the sights as I march along, my head held high. So much to SEE as opposed to so much to DO..   Found this little guy “hanging out” on a plant in [...]

Either the Rapture Event didn’t occur or we are all Sinners O_o I really was hoping something happened, so I wouldn’t have to work this Catering Event. Unfortunately, the worst thing to happen was the lights not working in the room and a box of strawberries fell on the floor.. The Internet was buzzing. People’s FB [...]
