"I BELIEVE IN PINK! I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."— Audrey Hepburn

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Every night, friends. You have done what you could. Let it go.

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Date Night!


Last night my husband and I had a date night. I can't really begin to tell you the last time we did something like that. We are really home bodies, especially me... Here in Baltimore we have a concert venue down at the harbor called Pier six Concert Pavilion. It is open air and next to the water. I bought tickets months ago to go see Dave Koz and friends. We love smooth jazz and so this promised to be perfect for us. Now I have to tell you that I have been a little concerned what with the 100+ temps here in Baltimore and the surrounding areas lately, that I would be a suffer'n fool...but as luck would have it or the Gods or maybe even Dave and friends, the weather was gorgeous! low 80's and by evening 70's and a gentle breeze. Just picture it...a lovely summer evening. Anyway, the "friends" turned out to be Jonathan Butler and Sheila E! Wow, not a bad line up...We had great seats (the front row of the center section) so no one directly in front of us and lots of space...The artists looked like they had a blast up there and it was a lovely evening all around...The space in front of us was a walkway so I was able to do a lot of people watching and I saw some wonderful summer evening outfits and some "what were you thinking" outfits too. We even held hands on the way back to the car.

There were the usual boats out in the harbor and the peeps out and around that were taking advantage of the excellent sound system to hear the concert also...Dave and co. included them also...nice...

I remember when I posted on face book that I had purchased the tickets that I mentioned that we had not been to a concert there since our dating days and that I hoped that the seats were bigger! Well, not so, but the clientèle seemed to be our age and the seats a lot closer to the stage and under the pavilion...hmmm...

My honey got up to go to the boys room(he didn't used to do that either) and came back with a JB CD...today I will upload it, but before that I will open it with...wait for it...my CD opener...yes you did read that...it is a little gadget that I found in my Christmas stocking that makes opening those impossible to open new CDs a pleasure to open! Hey another simple pleasure for another blog...

Well I must say that date meant that a crappy eye-opening week ended on a lovely note...

Stay Pink!
