wow, it's hard to believe that we are getting closer and closer to our trip to europe...and FINALLY we have everything booked - hotels, car rentals, flights - you name it, it's booked and/or paid for. what an incredible feeling...now it's just time to figure out what we want to do in each location?! now, granted …
luck of the irish
well, i hope everyone had a wonderful st. paddy's day holiday and weekend. i know we certainly did?! as some of you know, we decided to book a vacation overseas to the wonderful country of ireland later this year - a bucket list country for both of us. and it just so happened that on …
across the pond
well, it's official - keith and i are heading across the pond later this year. while i've been very fortunate to travel internationally since i was a little girl, this is keith's first time overseas - which as you can imagine, makes it extremely exciting for me as well. the fact that i will get …
epcot food & wine fest
one of my most favorite times of year has FINALLY arrived...the epcot® international food & wine festival. and i must admit, i've already been more than a couple times this year. i mean, when you live in orlando you have to take advantage of it, right?! from food to beer and wine, there is a …
throwback travel thursday
"traveling. it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller." wow, it's only been a few days since i've been back from my vacation and i'm still thinking back to each and every moment of the trip. i guess that's truly what it's all about, creating those moments. that's really why i created this …

just because i'm across the pond doesn't mean i'm not going to write my (pretty much) weekly wine recommendation. so since i am currently in germany, i wanted to feature a german wine (or wein). the wine we've been drinking has reminded me a lot of a pinot noir, light but just a little …
munster farmers market
there is one thing i've learned since arriving in germany and that is they love food. and i don't blame them, it's absolutely delicious. a few days ago we went to the munster farmers market and whoa the selections they had. from meats to cheese, bread and bratwurst...there was something for everyone. one of my …
running through handorf
well, my first full day in germany has come and gone. man does time fly and did it fly during my run today. i mean just because i'm overseas (on vacation) doesn't mean i can slack on my training for my half marathon. with it being less than a month away, this is probably the most …
hello europe
hello from the other side of the pond. crazy to think just a few hours ago i was waiting to board the plane to amsterdam. it surely hasn't hit me yet that i'm actually in europe (and i most certainly haven't adjusted to the time). but the adventures begin. next up: train ride to germany until …
