"I wonder if I've been changed in the night? Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is 'Who in the world am I?' Ah, that's the great puzzle!"

Smelling Spring

I know it appears like months away but soon Spring will arrive and what better to visualize it with images of fresh clean clothes hanging on clothes lines. Warmer temps and sunny filled skies casting shadows and images against the breeze. Another day of snow and cold temperatures here in the East. Making my way once again to the laundry room to wash clothes I envisioned these images which I found on Flickr. What better way to imagine and anticipate warmer weather and sunny skies.

Happy Valentine's Day

No matter how you decide you want to spend this Valentine, just remember there's Love all around us. A child, parent, sibling, or friend. Don't forget your most loyal furry pet. Enjoy your weekend and don't forget to pamper yourself and enjoy your day no matter whom you decide to spend it with. Yes, even pamper yourself if you're spending the day alone. Indulge in a warm relaxing bath, curl up with a great book, and relax to your favorite tunes. Whatever you decide make your day lovely.

Love these images of Madonna!

Dolce & Gabbana's New Old-World Italian inspired campaign.

The campaign was shot in a former lay convent in Manhattan.

"There are many Italian symbols in the images, ones the whole world recognizes and identifies with," says Gabbana, pointing to the cross Madonna wears around her neck as well as the brass bed, a typical sight in Sicilian homes. Food imagery also looms large. "It's healthy and sensual," says Gabbana. "They say there's a connection between food and sex."
