Third Reso: Spa-tasticly Cheaper

Thursday, January 5, 2012
Who doesn’t love to go and get pampered? Get laid up on a heated bed {it’s like you’re in a coffin to be quite honest!}, get a deep exfoliation treatment, your nails did, or my personal favorite…a blowout! To complete a spa experience, you may use one of these infrared saunas. Blackberry Farm houses one of [...]

Second Reso: Culinary Changes

Wednesday, January 4, 2012
I hate to admit it, but I’m detail oriented, a perfectionist at times, observing the little deets that one may typically not notice…especially during a dining experience.

First Reso: Expand Circle of Passions

Tuesday, January 3, 2012

Hairline Strokes of Perfection

Wednesday, December 21, 2011
Growing up, my mom inspired me to appreciate the beauty of calligraphy, and through her guidance I fell in love with the perfect brushstrokes of master calligrapher, Bernard Maisner.
