#ThrowbackThursday A Quinceanera!

In Latin tradition, girls are given a quinceanera, or Sweet 15, in order to celebrate their passage from girl to woman.

We had a quinceanera for my daughter with our family and close friends as well as a number of her friends. It was a lovely time and I think everyone had a blast!

Part of the tradition is that the women of the family, mom, aunts, grandmother and godmother, each present the young woman with a gift that symbolizes the passage. Things like earrings, bracelets, rings and other items that a woman would wear.

Here are some photos of my daughter, her godmother (my sister), her aunt, her grandmother and me doing that rite of passage.

Here is a photo of my daughter, hubby and me. If you believe in such things, you will notice the orbs that were present in this photo and many of the others. One friend who attended and is a sensitive said the place was haunted. It could be. We had the celebration in an old inn that has been around since 1843.

Just 1 More day until South Beach Love

With only a day left until the release of South Beach Love contemporary romance, I have to share a secret: If I wasn’t a romance author, I’d love to be a chef! I guess that’s why the hero and heroine in South Beach Love are both chefs. It’s always why I loved weaving some fabulous recipes into the book along with a very sweet romance and engaging story about friendship and family ties. Did I mention that when you buy the book you get a free, fabulous, original recipe from Hallmark?

So on this Motivation Monday, take a moment to share what you want to be!

Reliving Memories at the Milleridge Inn

Hubby proposed to me at the Milleridge Inn and so it seemed natural that we have our wedding reception there. We had a small wedding, but the inn did a fabulous job of making it special.

When we heard that the property had been sold and the inn might be closing, we had to stop and have a meal there during a trip to Long Island. Of course, we had to stop and take this photo as well to commemorate the occasion!
