Sometimes the World Needs a Little Magic!
I do not remember life before the little black book. My first memory is fluttering pages slowly flying over me in my crib. A page removed itself from the binding and began to fold. Fold after fold the page gracefully twisted and spun in the air. Drifting down into my hands it had taken the form of a swan with a long neck and carefully tilted head as if it were sent to watch over me.

Best Restaurants In Dublin
It seems like new restaurants in Dublin open its doors in Dublin with each passing week, triggering ripples of enthusiasm across a town that enjoys nothing more than an out-of-the-box food place. This is a city where at a food market you can order a dish of freshly shucked oysters, carry an artisan pie to the bar to indulge next to a chilled pint, or sit down for a two-Michelin-starred dinner that you can never stop telling your friends about. Forget the same old stereotypes, about Irish cuisine being dull and unimaginative.

Islet Of The Ibis
On the ancient sandy shore of the island paradise in Aswan, Egypt, a father and son explore the grounds of a botanical garden. Royal Palm Tree groves reaching up to clear blue skies and exotic flowering plants imported from India and Africa, peacefully sway to the warm summer breeze blowing off the Nile River. Rays of sunshine beaming through the palm leaves spotlight the brilliant foliage, enhancing the colors and glistening dew of every flower it reaches. In the distance, Egyptian Egrets and Ground Geese can be heard squawking at the fisherman returning to the Warf on Felucca vessels with their day’s catch.

First train of the day. Nothing like the rattle of an incoming train and sound of footsteps on tile. Just like always. From the stairwell first. Probably won’t work, but it’s worth a shot.

Road Ram-blings
I’ve often agreed with the characteristics attributed to my astrological sign - Aries, the Ram, the first sign of the Zodiac – one of the three fire signs. Descriptions of the signs’ traits appear in many places: online; in quirky metaphysical shops where you can buy incense and Wiccan tools; head shops; any given greeting card aisle. Ever found one in a beer bottle cap? I have. Am I a believer? Well, I’m not, NOT a believer. I don’t live and die by a horoscope, but I do admit to being a “leap before I look” and “get out of my way and follow me” kind of gal.

Mussel Strong
I have been a mussel driver for better than twenty years. I have had modest wild pearl finds in the Tennessee side of the Kentucky Lake. I keep track of my dives in a little black book. This book has been invaluable in helping me analyze where and when I had the best dives. My black book is integral to my mussel diving business.
