    Some of My Favorite Autumn Images

    ByMary Crozier October 2, 2023October 2, 2023

    Greetings from the Orlando Airport! Even though it is early October, it is still hot and humid here in this part of Florida. With a long wait until my flight to Phoenix departs, I am at the Admiral’s Club overlooking the tarmac with multiple planes coming and going under the heavy and moody Florida sky….

    ByMary Crozier August 15, 2023August 14, 2023

    I recently purchased a new book, Simply Living Well by Julia Watkins. This hard cover book is a guide to creating a natural, low-waste home. The book is filled with great ideas and recipes on how to reduce what you consume and throw away. But it got me thinking about how we live. What are…

It is a monumental effort and hence, very difficult to say no when she asks you to host a table! What makes…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier July 7, 2023July 8, 2023

    After a 3 week hiatus from blogging, our international travels are over and I am back in Phoenix. Happy Saturday and I hope you enjoyed a patriotic and relaxing July 4th week. The last time I missed July 4th in the United States was in 2014 when we were stuck at JFK airport coming back…
