Day 176 , 177, 178

Wow, wearing all the hats for this event certainly wore me out a little. ( at least it was fun too, just cray cray) LOL

Once I get the photos, I will share this great event with you that we would like to do each year.

So let's say the 5-10 min. break these last few days came in the mix of things..... a beautiful sunset off the balcony of the Foundation room at the Showboat. I hug and a catch up from some old friends ( well, not OLD friends, just friends I haven't seen in awhile)

Taking the time to pick up "swag bags" ..... that was different.... How often do we do that??? I hope more and more....

Take your 5-10 min.  Do something extraordinary !!!!

Day 175

Crunch time for events always takes a bit of a toll..... I did get to take a slight break and do something a little different. Today, I brought a little Passover to a friend. She was commenting on wanting to try our traditional "Matzoah Fry" ( or Matzoah Bry as we called it growing up)....

I went to her house. She provided the eggs and the chopping of the onions  ( what a great thing to supply....the onions part....no tears for me !!!! )

We sauteed the onions in a pan....broke up the eggs and scrambled them.... wet down our matzoah slightly and salted each piece slightly.... added some pepper to the egg mix, added some water and broke up all the matzoah in a large bowl to make 3 portions..... Once the matzoah was soaked up with egg mixture, it was time to pour it into the hot pan..... mix it up until the eggs are cooked and it's done ! Easy Pisi ( that's the Italian in me...... )

We kicked back for all of 10 minutes before we got back to work on the event....

It was quite enjoyable..... accompanied with coffee and vanilla creamer..... mad my day very special !

What did you do today?

Day 174

Interesting day.... as I have said most recently, I am swamped with all kinds of things to prepare for this upcoming fashion event. It is our designer, URSULE BADA's first real runway show. We at 4 A STAR are very excited !

That said, In the middle of all the running and doing, not to mention other events and things that have to get put into place too, I was able to take that few minutes and have a little lunch with a couple of great friends and business associates....

We were in a very relaxing atmosphere and cozy. The decor was so interesting as next to us underneath a counter top was a fireplace.... yep ! One of those cool fireplaces that look like a movie screen in front. It was so cool. We all made a comment about it and how special it was to sit in this place and chill in front of the fireplace. So even if you are doing your routine things, you can find that little teeny break to tantalize your senses !

What did you do today?

Day 173

As you can see, keeping up with the "posting" part of my challenge has certainly been a challenge for ME while I prepare for a big event.

This is something I can still work on. As I said, prior to this post, I'm meeting the challenge, just having difficulty posting it ! LOL

I hope you are taking advantage of even 5 minutes each day to refresh, revisit, and revitalize yourself and your senses...... you will be so grateful when you do. Who knows , you may even get a spark of some great ingenuity, some great transformation, or at the very least, a chance to kick back and relax for a few minutes.

Monday is my office day so you can imagine how hectic THAT has been too with preparing for this upcoming event.

It snowed here in our first few days of Spring !!!  I spent a good portion of the morning out in the mess, dealing with a tow truck for Art's car, driving him to the rental car place and that is just the aftermath of the crazy story about his car. !   Thank goodness all is well and we can talk about it in this fashion .

It was also our first night of Passover so later in the day we drove up to Cherry Hill to celebrate with family and friends. Funny thing is that I connected one of our family members to a childhood friend through Face Book some time ago..... this friend was at our Passover Dinner..... I find that truly amazing !

Enjoy your day !

Day 171

Today I was running around all day for the fashion event coming up. The posts have been very crazy since this event is eating up my time and I'm exhausted by end of day......

I have been meeting some great new people that I will be able to blog about in the near future....

Make your weekend great......

Day 170

Today I got to get away a little at a local gift shop. "Joelle's".... They have cool and interesting gifts and I happened to be in the are so I stopped in. (not mention  the owner is the Sister of one of our wonderful photographers   Larry Berman)   photosbylberman@gmail.com 

So I went in ....even left my phone in the car on purpose so I could get away for 10 minutes in this fantasy world of gifts.

One of my favorite things in the shop are these awesome wine goblets....  Inside the wine goblets (glasses) are girls! ( No silly, not real girls...although they look real)  Like......models that fit in the glasses..... models with cute little outfits on sitting inside the wine glasses !  Little statues if you may. You can even remove them so you can actually use the glass. I loved them !!!!!  I didn't have my phone with me so I couldn't take a picture of one. Maybe I'll go back and do that again for a later post.   It was a cold day, but sunny today..... Spring is somewhere...............somewhere soon I hope. I enjoyed getting a bit of a break in a hectic time preparing for our "Good Better Best" Fashion event......

I also liked these cute little napkins they had (coasters too) that had various sayings on them. This one said, "There are days I wish I had a delete button".....

Make your weekend great. Do something to break up your hum drum routine !  LOL
