Pin ItRoad Trip! South Walton Girlfriends Getaway
Bemused, I gazed at my bright pink, freshly pedicured toes.

Say you are having lunch with someone and they tell you that their husband is not able to go on the long weekend trip to Destin, Florida after all and they will have to drive all that way all alone and they look at you rather sadly, what do you do? What do you &hellip Continue reading
Shoes, Glorious Shoes!
I wouldn’t want you to think that I might possibly like shoes, but I have an entire shoe closet. That’s right. A shoe closet.
