Southern Girls…
Southern Girls
A Southern Girl is a girl who knows full and well that she can open a door for herself but prefers for the gentleman to do it because it demonstrates a sense of respect. We know how to make sweet tea and grits while telling you about any football team in the SEC. We pick our battles and fight with the heart of a pit bull while still maintaining grace and elegance. Our Mystique is that of a soft-spoken, mild-mannered southern bell who could direct an army, loves her momma and will always be daddy’s little girl

Wearing of the Green 2012
Just a few pics from yesterday. So much fun! Love seeing old friends and making new ones.
Books
One of my favorite things to do is curl up with a good book. I’ll often stay up all night to finish a book if I am really into it. Sometimes you just need to know what happened! If you have any good suggestions send them my way. I am always looking for a good book. Maybe it is my need to be entertained.
I read this quote the other day and just had to share it. It really states how I feel about books.
I read all of those books I always wanted to read, or reread… And I feel full. Until I finish a book. Then I feel a certain desperation to start a new one. To have company. ~Jill Davis
Locks of Love
This slideshow requires JavaScript.
So yesterday was Valentine’s Day or as most people like to call it Tuesday. Because yesterday was all about Love it reminded me of one of my favorite traditions in Europe where a couple will take a lock, write their name on it, lock it to a bridge, and throw the key in the river. The way I interpret this is it symbolizes that they will be together forever. Super Sweet! I found these little symbols all over Europe. I think I first fell in love with them in Paris on a bridge near the Louvre. It made me wish I was in Paris with that special someone so we too could take a lock, write our initials on it, and throw away the key locked together for all eternity (or until the city decided to come cut our lock off with a bolt cutter because the locks are becoming overwhelming). In Florence I found these locks everywhere not just on bridges. If there was a place near the river to place the lock there would be a group clustered together.
Here’s a link to Garance Dore speaking about the Locks. Hope you enjoy!
Paris
Every city has a sex and an age which have nothing to do with demography. Rome is feminine. So is Odessa. London is a teenager, an urchin, and this hasn’t changed since the time of Dickens. Paris, I believe, is a man in his twenties in love with an older woman.

Capri, Italy
Capri is Capri, nothing more to say… It is a piece of Paradise on Earth. The sun, the fragrance of the Sea, the food, the people. Walking in the narrow streets in a full moon summer night let you wish you will stay there forever. ~Max B~
