You know that I’m a huge fan of Oscar de la Renta, right? Not only is he extraordinarily (stratospherically!) talented, but he is kind, warm, enthusiastic and generous…an ultimate Silver Lining in the world. Well, I was super excited to see the Architectural Digest profile of his spectacular gardens in the Dominican Republic. Hope you enjoy… Continue reading Garden Dreams

Bookworm
The other day, I was going through Sweetly Six’s bookshelves and came across this book, Radiation Sonnets. WTF is THIS doing HERE, I wondered… Well, as with all things, I presumed that I was supposed to see this (book) when I was supposed to see it.

I can’t begin to tell you what an inspiration she is. Truly. Amazing. Oh, and by the way, she holds four world records for ocean rowing, including first woman to row… Continue reading Inspiring People: Roz Savage
Books on Music, The Brain & Emotion

It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into… Continue reading Musical Monday #4: Healer
