It's that time of year again, New Year's Eve. Time to make those lofty resolutions, like: I will not raise my voice to my kids or my husband unless the apartment is on fire, I will not buy something just because it's on sale, I will be more patient and kind to everyone and I will work out more, improve my tennis serve, and lose those last five pounds if it kills me.

I love flying non-stop! However sometimes you just can't get from here to there without stopping somewhere. I pride myself in my packing abilities, after all I've been a flight attendant for 25 years. Just the essentials, rolled, tucked and travel sized. But when our luggage didn't make our flight I realized how little you really need and even I am guilty of overpacking!

I’m always very sentimental about the holidays. My fondest memories are waking up my brother on Christmas morning so we could sneak a look at our stockings before my parents woke up. The warm fuzzy feelings also come to me when I look at my Sweet Charity Bangle that I made for The Boys and Girls Aid in Portland, Oregon.

I just had a whirlwind weekend celebrating our dear family friends’ son’s Bar Mitzvah. We attended the Friday night service, followed by dinner, the Saturday morning service, followed by lunch and the party to end all parties, Saturday night.
At the photo booth Saturday night!

This time of year provides plenty of opportunity for anxiety provoking feelings. The office party, too much family "together" time, overcrowded shopping centers, and traveling just to name a few. The one situation that never causes me anxiety is what to bring to the host/hostess when attending a holiday party when the typical wine, cookies or candies just aren't original enough for you. Sometimes one size doesn't fit all, but my favorite hostess gift to give and receive is a Diptyque candle, and it fits me perfectly, in any fragrance, but especially holiday scented ones, like Epinette and Perdione. Anything that makes my apartment smell more like Christmas. And it comes beautifully packaged so all you have to do is put a ribbon around the box with a nametag (so your grateful hostess will know who it came from.)

On my recent trip to Boca Raton, Florida my husband and I went to a wine store called Total Wine & More. And boy did they! It is like a Costco for wine and spirits. Rows and rows of wines by region, whole aisles of vodkas, domestic and imported, champagnes, beers, oh my. It was like being a kid in a candy I never thought I would have so much fun in a liquor store.
