My crazy neighbor's love for the earth

Today Liz, my partner in neighbor crime, took me to see her plot at the Jefferson County Community Garden. We both were laughing at the size of her plot compared to everyone else. This is her second season and is determined to show her green thumb and prove to them a city girl can get dirty!
 Her plot is row A, 5 over, the peach colored section.
I was impressed with the set up and I think next year I am going to participate.
No she doesn't have a mohawk it was really windy!

Friends forever

 I went to visit my bestie, Lee lums, in New Jersey a couple of weeks ago. I helped her at an event "Breast Fest" and happened to run into the sister of the adorable red head above, Kathy, and she told Kathy she saw me and Kathy told Mimi, the wild one on the left, that I was on Facebook....long story short we have all reconnected via Facebook. This picture was taken in the 80's during one of my many crazy parties at my beautiful 100 year old Victorian in Haddonfiled NJ.  These two where in high school and we got to be friends thru me being their hairstylist. We had sooo much fun being insane!

Years later both are amzing and stable women and I am proud that my "influences" didn't corrupt them.

Maybe Facebook isn't so bad.

love you guys!  xxoo

Oh and I still have that dress I was wearing, I had to baby powder my body to get it on! I was a such a fashionesta!!!!

Something new

Pictured above are my knives, in my kitchen. I am no longer the Chef at Dish. Unfortunately our path came to a fork in the road and I chose a different way. I always try and see the good in unpleasant situations, and above all experiences I've had in the past 2 and half years I bring my passionate commitment to the "farm to table" approach in the industry. I am forging onward to my next adventure and will share these journeys. In the mean time I am recharging and finding me again.Thanks for everyone's support at Dish!!!!

Fresh start coming your way
