Look what happened now...
Ready, Set, Jet!

This week I visited an old friend and while wandering around her home I noticed some of her collections and treasures. We had an interesting conversation about what we keep and why. Where do you draw the line between collecting and hoarding and how does one display their treasures? This picture doesn't do justice to the bottles she has on display, the sunlight from a near by window really set them off, as did the texture of the walls, painting and chest. The glass bottle collection became an art piece as a unit, making a statement besides the beauty of each textured bottle individually.
My mother collected postcards, glasses, shot glasses and many other things. She kept most of her treasures boxed up, which always felt a little sad to me. It seemed like a waste. Why collect something that you couldn't admire, touch or interact with? I seem to collect gems stones, jewellery and of course books! Soon my collections will have a new home and I'm so excited! What do you collect and why? How do you manage it? Let me know, I need ideas! Have a great weekend~ Feeling less than inspired?
I feel you. This is how I get stuff done and also why its so important for you to keep creating right now. Living for so long in the desert, I rejoice now every time it rains. Today, I had the pleasure of capturing the enchanting dance of periwinkles and other blossoms as they rejoiced in a gentle summer shower. The rain drops delicately trickled down the petals, intensifying the colors in a magical alchemy. Vibrant reds, brilliant yellows, and cheerful pinks burst forth, transforming the world into a vibrant tapestry of hues. I was transfixed as the flowers, grateful for the rain's touch, gleamed with a renewed radiance as if they were whispering their gratitude to the sky. As I watched the gentle showers, the plants perked up and I witness the transformation of blooms into vibrant works of art. The rain's touch awakens a kaleidoscope of colors, adorning petals with shimmering droplets that sparkle like jewels. In this magical union, rain and flowers remind me of the inherent beauty in an often harsh world, and the delicate balance that sustains life. The next time the rain falls I invite you to step outside and witness the magical union between raindrops and flowers, for it is in these moments that nature's true magic unfolds.

I'm not sure how it's even possible, but this blog is 10 years old today. WTF?? How is that even possible?? It seems like only last year I took the plunge and leaped out there and bought this domain. Looking back, I've blogged about my adventures traveling in the USA, Europe, Iceland, Canada, Mexico and South America. I've written about trips planned, delayed and failed, as well as amazing adventures that were life changing. I've shared my cruises to the Caribbean, Europe and the Transatlantic journeys. I documented my switch from Vegetarian to Vegan, shared recipes, created book reviews and wrote about my day to day life. I've moved from Texas to the south of France, London, the Lake District and back to the USA and you have been with me. This blog has opened so many doors for me. I have written several best selling books that wouldn't have happened if I wasn't pushing myself to write here. It's also helped me to try new things, and be open to new experiences. I've gotten serious about Youtube and started sharing way more of everyday life. My world has grown as I've meet new people from all walks of life and become much more of a global citizen. Thank you so much for reading my posts, sharing your own stories and connecting with me. Your feedback, suggestions and insights have helped me so much. Your friendships mean the world to me and I treasure you. In the next part of this 10 year celebration I'm going to share some stats with you and take a trip down memory lane. (Reading the old posts used to make me cringe now I am just nostalgic!)
I can't wait to see what the next 10 years bring! Another perfect day spent in nature ~
