Who knew going home could be so much fun! I grew up in Houston, and it’s great fun to come back and see so many cool changes. The house I lived in for elementary school is gone…City Center and a toll road replaced it.

I found the most charming, unique bed and breakfast in Fredericksburg called the Cotton Gin Village. It features seven cabins decked out in Texas style with all the modern amenities you’d ever need like satellite TV, working kitchens and Jacuzzi tubs.
After three weeks of religiously following the Adkins diet, I confess! I cheated this weekend… Mike and I had to be in Houston Friday night for an auto dealers event (Mike’s a headhunter for dealers), and we made a mini-vacation out of it. (I do mean mini) We got a dynamite weekend rate at the […]
Head out to the Rim shopping area to try Maggiano’s Little Italy-the newest restaurant to open here in SA. Mike and I have been fans of Maggiano’s for years.
