It took me a second to realize what it was in that form!  Can you tell what it is?

Adria Peaden Photography

Relief for Haiti: Can’t donate but want to do something?

As I was catching up on my Google Reader, I saw a post that caught my eye on Trekaroo.  We have all heard about the earthquake that occurred in Haiti and have seen the devastation in pictures on the news.  If you scour the Internet as often as I do, you have probably seen the [...]

For this week’s Travel Blogger Tuesday, I am going to talk about Got Passport.  I love conversing with this great family on Twitter (@gotpassport).  This year, they will become location independent (ok…time for a collective sigh of happiness for them) and move to Thailand.  There is nothing fake about this family.  They are open about [...]

A Cooking Lesson

My mom loves to cook and when she is in a new place she loves to learn how to cook meals popular to the area.  This is one of the travel habits that she has passed on to me.  On our honeymoon, my husband and I took a cooking class on Cajun cuisine.  I try [...]
