Globe trotting.

My friend Stewart likes to get around. He has traveled for quite some time now and I believe that he has seen more than I will see in a lifetime. Here he is at his best friend's wedding. I thought it was an amazing picture. The colors really caught my eye.

Amazing wedding photos.

Caring Bridge

Caring Bridge is a website that follows and documents the progress of patients. Mostly those with cancer or other serious health events. I followed Caring Bridge daily when my friend Melissa was being treated in Houston. Since her family,as well as me, were located in Atlanta, we could visit the website daily to see photographs or information on daily events. This is a free website and I plan to donate the money from my first fundraiser to Caring Bridge. My friend Gwen is a trainer for the young lady above. She has been working with her for quite some time and they have made significant progress. They discovered that Madison had a tumor in 2007, today she is cancer free.

Dita Von Teese

I love Dita Von Teese. I know she is a wild and naughty woman, but when she dresses like a lady she amazes me everytime. She reminds me of a modern day Marilyn Monroe. She is not a size zero, she has curves. You do not see that as much these days. I can forgive her for hooking up with that freak of nature (Marilyn Manson) and for dancing around naked if she can just show up on a red carpet in one of her amazing dresses with her perfect hair. Do what you do girl!

Twila MoonDream

Twila is my brain child. She came about during one of my morning walks with crazy dog. Twila is an acronym for The Women's Interests Likely Align. I wanted to have a facebook page where women could come to discuss food, wine, coffee, babies, hobbies, art, etc. I would eventually like to create an organization where we can raise money for various causes. I have many plans for Twila and I hope everyone jumps on board to bring new ideas and share Twila with your girlfriends.

The Village Corner German Bakery

You can find the greatest food in the most unexpected places. This restaurant in located In Stone Mountain. They make their own baked goods including homemade bread. They also have a fantastic dinner menu with great presentation.

San Fran Donuts.

Dynamo Donuts in San Fran apparently created these monster donuts. I am not a big donut eater, but Victor can tear them up (+Roger). I retrieved the photos from: http://www.foodgal.com/2010/06/dynamo-donuts-are-dyno-mite/

Stay with you.

We've been together for a while now
We're growing stronger everyday now
It feels so good and there's no doubt
I will stay with you as each morning brings sunrise
And the flowers bloom in springtime
On my love you can rely
And I'll stay with you

Oh I'll stay with you through the ups and the downs
Oh I'll stay with you when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arrive
I will stay by your side
I know we'll be alright
I will stay with you

Though relationships can get old
They have the tendency to grow cold
We have something like miracle
Yeah, and I'll stay with you

Oh I'll stay with you through the ups and the downs
Oh I'll stay with you when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arrive
I will stay by your side
I know we'll be alright
I will stay with you

And there will be heartaches and pains, yes it will
But through it all, we will remain
In this life, we all know
Friends may come, and they may go
Through the years I know
I will stay
And in the end I know that we'll find
Love so beautiful and divine
We'll be lovers for the lifetime, yeah
And I'll stay with you
I will stay with you

Oh I'll stay with you through the ups and the downs
Oh I'll stay with you when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arrive
I will stay by your side
I know we'll be alright
I will stay with you
Everything will be fine
And I will stay with you
Through the end of time
I will stay with you
John Legend- Stay With You.
