Western Spring

Today in my city, we are expecting wind gusts up to 70 miles per hour! Dust, Cold and maybe rain... I am distracting myself with these beautiful images from Ralph Lauren's RTW Spring Collection 2011. I adore these looks! I love how Mr. Lauren incorporates the subtle patterns that I adore about Southwest design. I love the contrast of the metallics and suede! Gorgeous!

Merry Christmas

Enchilada Friday

Cheese Enchiladas with Red Chile, originally uploaded by dadadreams.

For the last 20 years, yes Twenty...our family has been eating a red enchilada on Fridays at a local restaurant. Today I am bummed because I have an emergency cut and color and have to skip this wonderful tradition!! The tuna salad I will eating will not make me happy like this wonderful plate of food would. I will post the recipe for red enchiladas very soon!!

I'm Nervous!!

I am nervous!! I just gave the go ahead on a headboard that I am having made for our master bedroom. I am nervous because it is going to be bold!! I am using the "Los Ojos" blanket from Pendleton for the fabric. I love the graphic nature of the black and white design. I live in white box type of house, and our bedroom really needs a focal point...well, we're going to have one!!

Why I started this Blog

I am starting this blog because I want to showcase the unique food, fashion and design that I love about where I live. I grew up in California, went to college in Arizona and have made New Mexico my home for the last 26 years. I am new to blogging, so I if anyone has any tips, please pass them along! For instance, when I published the post about the Ralph Lauren fashion, it took me all morning how to figure out how to upload the images! Please let me know what you like, and want to see more of. Thanks
