Salty Dog

It's been nearly a year since I stopped blogging...I kind of quit cold turkey as our family had so much going on in 2010 and early 2011.  Lots of trips, sickness of parents, new jobs, an international move from the UK back to SC, farewell parties, welcome home parties, saying goodbye to dear friends, and saying hello again to friends from years before.  It was exhausting to say the least.  In all the madness one thing has remained, I am still striving to incorporate a vintage chic lifestyle into my daily living.  I've re-discovered old junkin' haunts of the past and found some great new ones since we've been back down south.  I've had my share of shrimp, farmers market tomatoes and fried okra.  A martini here a sweet tea bourbon there...its nice to be home.  I plan on sharpening the focus of the blog but am not quiet certain in which direction...so for now I'll take it slow and easy maybe sit on the front porch and enjoy the salty spring breezes blowing in.....oh and probably certainly have one or more of these while I figure it out ;)
