Just over 3 years ago, I wrote a blog entitled “Season of Hope” that reflected my expectations about the Le Mystѐre brand as it began its transformation back into a key market player in the Foundations Industry. Its rich heritage had not prevented a slow leak in their fan base as production and design issues played havoc on their infrastructure. But, luckily the new team of seasoned pros that took … Read More
When you live someplace, no matter how beautiful, life happens and paradise retreats to make room for day to day problems and the frustrations that seem to grow exponentially. Residing here semi-permanently changes perspective. Yes to beaches at our fingertips, margaritas on the sand, horseback riding daily and vistas that go on forever. No to water problems, which are mega this year here in Cabo, a daily dance we … Read More
As we all know, Sunday is Mother’s Day. It also would have been my mother’s 95th birthday had she lived. I lost her in 1988, the year my son was born. My mom was an anchor in my life.

Understated, yet elegant, it seems the perfect purview for the Eberjey bride.
There’s a new girl coming to town. Her name is Fiore. She reminds me of Pippi Longstocking all grown up, but still delightfully independent and pretty self-assured. She’s traveling here from the UK where her family has lived reputably for over 50 years. I met her recently along with some of her friends: Matilda, Daisy and Lyla to name a few. They were all perky, young ingénues working hard to … Read More
A few months ago, my husband and I were having drinks on the terrace of a luxury hotel here in Cabo called Esperanza. Not our usual activity, we went, mainly to see the venue. Cabo is well-known for its destination weddings and by coincidence, that evening, there was a marriage ceremony taking place at the resort. It got me thinking about the entire bridal business, the extravagance, the energy exerted, … Read More
