A beautiful hotel property in the heart of South Beach, the Loews Miami Beach Hotel is a fabulous destination for an event or just relaxation. This is a sponsored post. I received complimentary amenities during my stay, but the opinions are mine alone. Miami is one of my favorite cities to visit. There’s nothing quite …
Yesterday afternoon we were at Brooklyn’s for Taco Thursday. April and I were doing our usual blog shop-talk, and then it hit me…it was Thursday, and I didn’t have a post ready for Flashback Friday. What’s worse, I had absolutely no idea what to write about. I wracked my brain for a while, and finally …
Las Vegas has it all: restaurants, casinos, shows, shopping, sightseeing. Sin City is a fabulous place to visit, and you’ll be hooked after your first trip. My great friends Michele and Reilly go to Las Vegas very often. Reilly’s company is headquartered there, so convenience is one reason they go. But more importantly, they go because …
Earlier this year, Kara and I had talked about doing a weekend trip to NYC while I was back in Maryland this summer. We had so much fun 2 years ago, but really didn’t see a lot of what we wanted to. But eventually Kara was going to be in vacation with her family at …

Gamedays in general were like that for me–I worked …
There were a few places we went during our trip where we just had a snack, not an entire meal. So I figured rather than do each one separately, I’d just cover them all in one post. Saturday morning, before we left for Ground Zero, we were short on time but still needed a quick …
When Kara and I make plans, it’s all or nothing. When we were in college, the Maryland men’s basketball team beat UMass to advance to their first Sweet 16. The second the game was over, we looked at each other and said “we have to go”. I don’t even think the internet had been invented yet …
I just got back from my Association of Luxury Suite Directors (ALSD) conference in Minneapolis. I have to admit, I wasn’t too fired up when I first heard we would be in the Twin Cities, especially since the last 5 years we were in Phoenix, Miami, Dallas, NYC and LA. But we were assured the …
