Lately



                 Lately, I just can't help but feel grateful and blessed. Being in California you
              truly get to see such beauty everywhere you go and it fills my heart and makes
                                    me happy. Take a brief moment and take life in.

                                                                    Malibu

  2. Thank you! My husband and I are over here in china on an expat assignment for the next three years, and Malbu is home. We miss it and these photos make me smile. There is nothing like the California coastline, the ocean breezes and beautiful skies.

  7. You do live in a little paradise there. The one downside about Atlanta is the beach is SO far away! Thanks for sharing yours with me today :)

  20. I love these pictures!!!! I went unplugged for the holidays. I loved getting caught up!!! I loved the recap. You know I have made a bunch of your recipes and they never dissapoint Val. For xmas breakfast I made the cinnamon roll french toast and it was a total hit!!!! I loved it!!! I am making the cheeseburger bake this week. I love the looks of it, it's got to be good!! Missed you!!! Take care and Happy New Year!!!

    I could not agree more, living in California, it is simply the best, I could have been born anywhere else and I was born here and we're still here. We love it. Were you born here? I think you were. :) Love,

  28. Val! I made the cheese bake you featured right before this latest post. Would you believe that everyone loved it? They did, and I did. Thank you for the suggestion. We are having it for left overs tonight. That's one of the best things about it. :) Love to you and have a great weekend.
