Spring Travels

I am so ready for Spring. This week we will be going to our favorite city for some hot beignets at Cafe DuMonde. Since Katrina, we find ourselves constantly checking out the construction or lack of in our city of New Orleans.

Each year at Jazz Fest time we meet up with old friends-for seven years we get to see each other one time a year. It is a great season, just before all the humidty hits and the temperatures start rising. We love Oak Alley, French Quarters all the items reminding us of another time before we were even born.

Last year I enjoyed reading Julia Reed's book The House on First Street. Julia and husband had just moved into the house before the hurricane changed their lives. Now that I have read the book, I want to get to the house in the Garden District to see if it matches her book cover. I love the Garden District, beautiful homes.

I will try not to take so long in between my postings. Hope you have had a chance to check out my new shopping site here. I recently ordered new smocked curtain for the condo. So I will have some photos soon. April was a busy month...taxes, taxes.
