Hi, there, Fiesta Friends! I'm back from the beach and have withdrawal symptoms! All I want to do is go back to the beach, drink piña colada, and eat lobster rolls. I ate a horrendous amount of lobsters when I was in Montauk. My daughter fairly branded me a glutton. And I probably had too much piña colada. That's my way of pretending I was on some tropical island paradise. Montauk is not without its charms, mind you. Historic Montauk Lighthouse But can it compare to let's say... Maui? ... continue reading...

Hi, guys! I'm on my way to Montauk, for some needed R & R. And lobster rolls. Many years ago, when the kids were very young, we stumbled into this quirky little town while exploring the Hamptons.

I’m planning my summer vacation and since I’ve never been on a cruise before, I thought it’d be a good idea. The husband is sold on it, the kids not so much. They think cruises are boring, and mainly for older folks. What are they insinuating, actually? That I’m old?! What! Oh, well... I could have been accused of something worse, I guess. Like being a ... continue reading...

So did y’all have a great Independence Day yesterday? Mine could be better, I guess. It started out fine. I roasted some red, white, and blue potatoes for everyone to nibble on. Then I made a red, white, and blue berry buckle to bring to a party. So far, so good... Then at the party, I became the biggest party pooper. I couldn’t keep my eyes open! Must have been the blackberry bramble being served by the gallon that was the culprit. It was delectable, I must say. I cut my losses and ... continue reading...
