Selling of the Palms…
This morning, in my customary “mailing-things-off-at-the-last-minute-style,” I bought the last few chocolate eggs and assorted dolci to send to Baby Cole for Easter. The over-sized Kinder Surprise egg won’t make it, I’m told, as if i didn’t already suspect this, but, hey, chocolate is chocolate to a six-year-old, and a cracked egg tastes just as [...]
Love Thursday: Compassion Counts
I lightly mentioned in my ” first-ever tagged” post a couple of days ago that Monday was not the best of the best. Someone stole my cell phone, my MP3 player, and about 30 Euro from the gym locker room. (I know you are thinking, “Cherrye you are nuts - leaving all of that valuable [...]

Blog Talkers #12 - Guilt Talks!
So I am over a week late and a bunch of euro short, but Rob posted this question via Blog Talkers last week and I am slowly, but surely getting ’round to it.
“What do you feel most guilty about?”
Well, that is easy! The thing I feel most guilty about is…
Being here.
Doing what people who don’t [...]
I’ve Been What??? Seven Songs for Life!
I’ve been tagged…how fun, how exciting, how sexy…how…wait, what is a tag again?
I got it!
Basically a tag is when you complete a meme on your blog and then double-dog-dare someone else to join in the fun.
Ok, I’m in!
Well, Sognatrice of Bleeding Espresso double-dog-dared, ur, I mean “tagged” me with a twisted rendition of the original [...]
**Il Cedro Update**
As you know, Peppe and I are on the brink of opening our very own Bed and Breakfast here in Catanzaro. A few weeks ago I told you about the “The Five Most Difficult (and, yet I never imagined they would be) Things About Opening a B&B.” Number one on that list was “Actually Opening [...]
My Little Slugger
Today is Opening Day for Little League Season in K-Town and my little slugger was ready! Oh come on - you know who I am talking about…Baby Cole! Ok, ok, I know he is 6 years old now, and is much too grown to be called “baby,” but I mean it in the most loving [...]

Love Thursday: Italians and the Mercatino
I was half-way through my Love Thursday morning today and still debating about what to write. I thought I would write about how sweet my Peppe was today for sharing tacos with me, even though he doesn’t like Mexican food. Then, I thought I might write about how wonderful Peppe’s dad was for going to [...]
Third Time’s the Charm…or, is it the Fourth?
You might remember a few weeks ago when I was struggling with bungee-jumping brides and fungus-curing dentists. I couldn’t sleep, had bad dreams, awakened often during the night. Well, now there is a new problem in town. I can’t seem to wake up!
Let me digress a bit.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with this [...]
