Hail May Weather

The weather forecasted thunderstorms with a mix of hail. Petals from both my fully bloomed crabapple trees joined in the mix to create these pretty pictures.

Poor Mengma, my dear Maltese Shih Tzu mixed poochka.  She was shaking with fright listening to the howl of the wind and watching the swaying of trees from the porch.

Soon after the storm passed, I assured her that Mother Nature just wanted to say "hello!", thus, checking the aftermath of tiny pea-sized hail hesitantly.

International Women's Day 2015

Here's a shoutout to all the wonderful ladies I had the opportunity to meet and network with yesterday at Seven Sushi and Steak Ultralounge sponsored by my fave doll, Cherida Youmans and Women United Minnesota. Among some local vendors and amazing businesses owned by women featured for this lovely event were Lancome, Lucerito's Fashion Boutique, AVL Sweet Treats, Katra Abdulahi, etc.

Thank you so much to all the women in the world and here's to more empowerment!

When will summer come??

I miss the warm weather!  It's been blizzard after blizzard in New York and single digits in the evenings for Minneapolis with sub zero windchill. Bbbrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

Throwback from a pontoon ride in 2012 at one of the 15,074 lakes in Wisconsin.
