A Case of You #MusicMonday
I’ve featured this song, “A Case of You” before but not this version. I just discovered it today while scrolling through Youtube and thought … why the hell not? It’s a great start for my blog in 2020. This song is forever linked to specific memories in my life—wonderful memories, ones I will always cherish...Continue reading A Case of You #MusicMonday

Take my Breath Away with Serendipity, Simplicity, and Gratitude
I promised a regular reader of my blog that I would share some insights from a recent dinner party. Sixteen women attended my “serendipity-themed” evening, which explored friendship, food, and of course, the wonders of serendipitous encounters, especially amongst women. Except for key tasks required of me as the host, I purposely planned very little....Continue reading Take my Breath Away with Serendipity, Simplicity, and Gratitude

Don’t Panic #MusicMonday
Last week, I cleaned up my stereo unit. Yes, I still have one of those! It consisted of a 5-CD player, amplifier, tape deck, and racks that held just over 150 CDs. I left the CD player as I’d still like to use it on occasion, but packed up the tape deck and CDs (only...Continue reading Don’t Panic #MusicMonday

Someone You Loved #MusicMonday
I had a busy weekend with sixteen beautiful women. We got together at my home for dinner, conversation, and inspiration. The theme of the evening was serendipity. Everyone brought a food item. The menu ended up as a perfect balance without any intervention to make it so. The very cozy seating arrangement was determined by...Continue reading Someone You Loved #MusicMonday

Sultans of Swing #MusicMonday
I love the opening chat Knopfler has with his audience in this live video for “Sultans of Swing.” He talks about how songs become landmarks and milestones in his listeners’ lives. And he’s right. Songs, as well as artists inhabit a distinct time in my life. Certainly, Knopfler has occupied my listening pleasure since my...Continue reading Sultans of Swing #MusicMonday

“Move on Up” played in a restaurant while I was out last week, and I felt such a great reconnection to this man and his music. “Hush now child, and don’t you cry Your folks might understand you, by and by Move on up, toward your destination You may find from time to time Complication...Continue reading Move on Up #MusicMonday →
