On Any Given Tuesday

I am home this week... No travel until Sunday. We went to the Sunday Market on St. Pete Beach which is a great place for us to go on Sunday mornings for Brunch.  I bought lots of veggies and fruits for the week so I planned to cook! Everything looked amazing!



We ate brunch at Chill which was fantastic. I had the Shrimp and Grits... To be honest. Very good but not the best I have ever had.  They do have a brunch buffet that starts at 10 am. It's busy and they have options for outside seating, bar seating or tables! Great Service! 


So by now you're thinking... What does any given Tuesday( the blog title) have to do with anything? Well, here it goes. Since I am home this week and cooking, I am standing in my beautiful all white farmhouse kitchen admiring this beautiful new cutting board and I am thinking that this Tuesday, I am home making dinner from local farmers and grass fed beef.  Next Tuesday, I will be in Los Angeles staying on Rodeo Drive at The Beverly Wilshire and there might be some shopping involved :) The following Tuesday I will be in an all day meeting in Detroit talking about the importance of improving outcomes in maternal health.  So on any given Tuesday.... Who knows what's going to happen. One thing is for certain.... ain't no Tuesday boring for me! 


Yes this last minute meal.... Roasted Okra, Steamed Brussel Sprouts and Bloody Mary Mix Meatloaf (Yes, I pulled that out of my HAT! when I realized there was no ketchup) I just poured the Zing Zang right in, It's the best meatloaf I have ever had!  Perfectly spicy but didn't overpower the beef!  Here's to Tuesday's :) 

Until next time from Sunny California

DC Trumps most other cities

I love DC and I love Washington. They are different you know? If you work in government, then you consider yourself to work in Washington.  If you do anything else here or you are a tourist, it's called DC! I came to DC for the first time at 18 years old on my senior trip and I have loved it ever since. I'm always excited when flying into Ronald Reagan airport which is in the heart of the city. I love that about the RR airport! I am sitting in the sky club now and I am looking a the Capitol in the distance. It's just beautiful. I love all of the landmarks here.  I think the Washington Monument is my favorite. This time I stayed in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. It's Five Star. Turn down service with slippers placed by your bed at night. It's truly a great experience.  The bar, the food, the rooms are all perfection. Next Stop was the Trump Hotel! Now that was a treat for sure. We just stopped by for coffee and of course to question the staff :) It's truly...
Well It's 2 days after my 50th and I guess it's sinking in... I AM 50!!!!  I decided today that the word for my 50th year would be gratitude.  I do my best thinking when I write so I decided to get up this morning and write. I should write more because when I read it back I am in awe of what I said and how I said it. It moves me. Yes, my own words move me. When I read back what I write... I am pretty darn shocked as what came out of me. I think everyone should try it. My life's word is BELIEVE. I love that word, I think it's a key to everything in life. My belief in myself and my gifts have gotten me this far... How far is that you ask? Well, from a poor small town girl in rural South Ga to a business professional who has had opportunities that most only ever dream of. So back to Gratitude. I think Gratitude and living as, Tony Robbins calls it, in a state of beauty based on Gratitude and appreciation will take me the distance for the next 40 years. What is the dist...
I guess the one thing I get asked more than anything is. "How were you able to leave a nursing career making 70 k a year and consistently make over 150 k a year and enjoy traveling and fine dining on someone else's money?" I am going to tell you exactly how I did it! I knew what I wanted and took little steps everyday!  1. Mindset!   The first step is conquering your MIND!  Deciding what you want and being open to the way it unfolds but knowing that it will unfold!  I knew when I was walking the halls of the hospital that there was more for me.  Being a bedside nurse is wonderful and fulfilling and I have made life long friends because of my time working in hospitals.  However, I knew that it wasn't something that I would do forever.  I always wanted to fly and travel and work as an executive! ALWAYS! From the time I was in high school, I wanted more out of life than an eight to faint job! Personal development is the key to getting what you w...
