Mosaic Monday!

I love to make Mosaics! I can't believe its monday already!
I have been looking for inspiration to remodel my master bath.
And of course we always want what we can't have...
Like for instance an outdoor bath tub...
Or this amazing amethyst tub!
Its incredible and that's why I put it in the middle... its my favorite!
Enjoy!

Short trip. Saturday was bittersweet... The service. But then seeing
friends and family. It was beautiful and sad. The room was fled with
love.

Happy to get back he tho. Our new grandson is due soon. I was nervous

Foodie Friday & Hooked on Fridays

Thanks Miss "G" for hosting Foodie Friday! My Favorite! Visit all the other fun
This past week I was in Las Vegas and had a great opportunity to visit NBC Channel 3 News while I was there and watched (quietly) as they taped the 12:00 news. My daughters friend April works as a producer. Well, she is also my friend too since I have known her since she was 8 years old! She calls me her second Mom!
That's April! Hi Baby Thanks again!
(Please click on any photo to enlarge! Even the already huge tuna!)


The tour was incredible and I hope to go back and watch the evening news sometime soon! They had a guest chef there that day, Chef Kim Canteenwalla.


He is the Chef from Society Cafe at the Encore Hotel.



He was there with his sou chef and they had a giant fresh tuna and made seared tuna.
The tuna was kinda ugly but the Sou Chef was Oh La La!



When we went live I couldn't take photos...


Here is the finished Seared Tuna!



Here I am with Justin... He put up "Special Report" on the screen behind us just for me!

Leaving Las Vegas

Driving home right now. It's about a 5 1/2 hour drive. We just went
over the Hoover Dam.
A few months ago when we drove over the dam I took a photo of the new
bridge. The two sides are almost touching now! When I get home and can
access my photos I will post them side by side.
