I had another business trip to Rhode Island this January. I really enjoy Newport and the Naval War College is so fascinating. Of course I worked 10-12 hr shifts so I didn’t have anytime to write my newsletter or anything glass related. In fact I took these 2 pictures on […]
Another cooking class at the French Kitchen. Dan and I took a fantastic cooking class recently. I just can’t get enough of these cooking classes. This one was with Kristie of course. I’m so going to miss her, this was my last class with her. It was a fix and […]
In my last blog I wrote about our trip to Steamboat Springs. How we went to the hot springs and snowmobiling. So much fun. We also took the gondola up to the top of the ski runs (no I don’t ski anymore). Something I didn’t know about Steamboat is it […]
I love to travel, not just overseas but here in Colorado as well. Last year my husband and I made a commitment to spend more time together. We had a blast last year, so we made the same commitment this year. Our first trip of the year was to Steamboat […]

I’ve taken a few cooking classes this year and this month I took three cooking classes. All the classes were at the French Kitchen in Colorado Springs and Kristi. The first class was a couples class. Dan and I had a blast, we drank wine and made these fantastic shrimp […]
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I had a fantastic Thanksgiving with my in-laws on the western slope. I have so many things to be thankful for family (my husband, daughter, son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter, mom, sisters, brothers, nieces & nephews, cousins, in-laws), friends, and of course my job.

While I was in California, I was lucky enough to see my son, daughter-in-law, and of course my stunning granddaughter. I must confess, when I held her in my arms I had tears in my eyes. She’s so beautiful, smart, and amazing. My son and daughter-in-law have done a fantastic […]
In my last post I talked about my fused glass class with Laurie Spray. In this blog I wanted to talk about the Airbnb I stayed at while I was taking the class. The airbnb host was Nancy and she was a true delight. We had a wonderful time together. […]
After taking the cookie class (see previous blog) Lela and I took another cooking class (BTW I don’t enjoy cooking). The class was at the French Kitchen in Colorado Springs. They gave me a nice bag because I signed up for another class. I made chicken and dumplings. I so […]
So I really love learning new things so recently I took 2 classes… Cooking classes!! The first class was a French Macarons class. This was more of a demonstration but I still enjoyed it. The class was in a local shop. Nice shop and instructor. What I learned from this […]
