I lie here on my pink puffy bed in my pink silky pajamas, or pink flannel depending on my mood (the only thing you can bank on is that there will be chocolate smeared somewhere on my attire), with my pink feathered pen, writing my most delicious daydreams. Funny? Sometimes. Scandalous? Hopefully. Inspiring? Perhaps. Full of love? Always.
Welcome to my World.

A Book That Changed My Life
One of my favorite dinner party questions is, “Name three books that changed your life.” I love to hear people really think about this question and answer as I usually learn a lot about them. If someone were ever to ask me this question, the first book I would name is Brothers Karamazov by Dostoyevsky.
Wild Dances and Gnome Beards
Well, another sweltering day in New Orleans with sick babies, but we made the most of it. Let’s see, highlights of our day included taping blankets on a box, sewing yarn on a sock and creating a puppet theater; wearing fairy wings and emptying out the refrigerator for a “picnic;” dancing foolishly and wildly around the living room (with kids so captivated they didn’t even participate at first, just watched me, stupefied, as I ran in circles whipping my head…
A Pirate in the Park
Ok, technically he wasn’t REALLY a pirate…he was a commodore. Or so he said. We were playing on the playground in Audubon Park when I spied out of the corner of my eye, a man striding across the park wearing a long pirate coat, pirate pants, tall boots, a sword in his scabbard, and a huge three-cornered hat complete with dancing feathers on his head. His long black hair was tied back in a ponytail. “Annabelle! Look! A pirate!” I…
These are a Few of My Favorite Things
So, one of my favorite places to shop is Nordstroms because there customer service is above and beyond, free shipping, and easy returns with no interrogation or suspicion that you are trying to con them. I can happily shop and try new things and be assured that if I don’t like it, I can return it. (I rarely return, but I like to know I can.) So Nordstroms sent me a few sample with my last purchase and I loved…
Substitute Teaching (AKA Shock Therapy)
Darling! I was called in to substitute teach yesterday at the kids’ school. I was in the art room working with 3rd, 5th and 6th graders. It was my first time working out of the house in nine years, and I agonized over my outfit–how to look professional, yet kid-friendly. My tata’s are DDD so it’s very difficult for me to find a shirt that doesn’t show cleavage. Pretty much everything I put on makes me look like I’m going…
Hope | Humor | Inspiration | KimSuncatcher
Kim was a suncatcher. She literally was so full of light and the air around her twirled and radiated rainbow lights. She would have been 46 on February 8 this year, 2020. So when I was invited to a birthday party for our dear friend, Sunny, on February 8 in LA, I decided it was time, time to go to Kim’s house to bring back the things from our twenty five years together—from our Royal Palace days, our Honey and…
