In like a Lion and out like a Lion.


I was so glad to see February get here, and I am SO glad it is over. There have been so many changes in my life over the last 3 months, but over the last 3 weeks things have been ALL over the place. From a newborn niece, to a new apartment, to turning 28...what a roller coaster.
I am so thankful to have such great friends and family who have been supportive and that is an understatement. After a few mini breakdowns in February I am welcoming a new month with open arms. Somehow I must have subconsciously known that by the beginning of March I would need a break - so I am very pleased that a mini vacation to Palm Beach will be in store the first weekend in March. I am looking forward (another understatement) to spending some time with my friend Martha while sipping Dark and Stormies in the hot sun. With my early March recharging who knows what the end of the month could bring...but I have a great feeling about it already.

New addition to the family!


My niece, Olivia Marion Bond, was born yesterday on Valentine's Day. What a GREAT Vday gift....in fact, the only Vday gift....
I'm so glad that Valentine's Day will no longer be the most useless holiday out there!! Yay for birthdays!

Cold day for showings, but look at that VIEW!


I was lucky enough to show Highland Rose with Kim Swan the other day. A very COLD and windy Mid-Winter day, but just LOOK at that view!! Highland Rose is an exceptional waterfront listing nestled into the rocky coast of Maine overlooking Frenchman Bay. It was a great day in my real estate world to have shown this property!

I heart Bon Appetit magazine...


For some reason I seem to forget I subscribe to the wonderful Bon Appetit magazine and when it arrives in my mailbox each month it is like a mini Christmas!! This month, the wonderful and fabulous February, is my FAVORITE month of the year and to my surprise, the Editor in Chief of Bon Appetit concurs! So many great people born in this month....if I do say so myself.

As I read through Barbara Fairchild, Editor in Chief's, monthly letter I could not help but smile.
Here is a snippet to show you why:

So to my fellow partyers: Go ahead and jump into February, issue in hand - no fear, no frostbite, no fooling. I guarantee there's a delicious something or other waiting for you wherever you land.
